Blond Indians.
One of the mysteries of Mexico Is
presented by the Maya Indiana, who
Inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains In
the lower imrt of Sonora. They have
fair aklna, blue eyes and light hair,
and students of ethnology have always
been puxxled to account for tbern.
There Is a tradition, however, that
these Indians are the descendants of
the crew aud passengers of a Swedish
vessel wrecked on the Mexican coast
centuries before Columbus discovered
the new world. Itut this tradition Is
founded on nothing more substantial
than a folklore tale current among
them that their ancestors came over
the bis salt water hundreds of moons
Misleading Names.
Perhaps the most misleading name
on the map Is that of Tlerra del Fue
go. the "Land of Fire." Tho namo
would Imply that It was ft laud of vol
canoes In coustant activity. Tho fact
la, however, that It contains no volca
noes and Is a country of perpetual wet
aud cold. It got Its namo from tho
fact that It was sighted by Magellan
at night lo couseiiuenco of a largo flro
having been Ignited by tho natives on
shore. The same discoverer happened
to have very line weather after ho had
rouuded tbe Horn and so gave tho
name "Pacific" to a part of the ocean
which is exceptionally subject to
storms
A Lapland Wedding.
Mr. K. IL Butler, who lias traveled
much lo Lapland, Is of opinion that
that country affords a for more inter
esting experience for holiday makers
than Swltxerland.
"A weddlug I saw was the picture of
happiness," ho says. "The brldo was
attired In red, with a red silk scarf and
tassel*, white shoes, fur gaiters and
red gloves. The wedding feast consist
ed of reindeer meat, marrowbones
from the legs, reindeer tongues and
reindeer cream and coffee. It Is the
practice for the dogs to attend tho cere
monies, and sometimes the proceedings
are disturbed by the dogs lighting."?

SHOWER - PROOF j
COATS FOR
WOMEN
FOR AN ATTRACTIVE, light and medium
weight coat that will protect against] an
occasional shower, wear the APSLEY
SHOWER-PROOF CLOTH COAT. These coats
have the double advantage of serving as top-coat
and rain-coat. Their long, loose, attractive styles
and shower proof qualities make them very popu
