He suggests that if some of the money and legal ability spent in the efforts to convict “gentlemanly wrong- doers” like Thaw and Morse could be diverted to the lower-class crim- inals—for instance, in establishing a police system of registering every petson in every house in the dubious districts, such as has been foand effective in some European cities—the Italians of New York | would be heart and soul with the constituted authorities in the re-| form work. But this is begging the question, and futile argument in such a | éptrit might go on forever. It is time now for these good hyphen- ated citizens to come out and do something, even if they have to take « few chances like the rest of us. . _ One is less often betrayed by confidence than by mistrust.

You do not have to be a monk or anything else that is compromising or inconvenient. to go into the silence here for a few days’ rest. In fact, the idea of the place, which is declared to be « wholly non-commercial proposition, is to provide an assured week-end repose for the tired business man, the care-bur- | dened intellectual giant, the jaded worldling. If the worst care a ‘person has is that he is broke, we are assured that “he will not be turned away”; but, obviously, such individual must be possessed of a sound nerve. For the ordinary tripper, a maximum fee of five dol- lars is expected to cover the expenses from Friday night until Mon- day morning. This ought to be a fine thing for the tired city man—and if the scheme works out successfully it will also be a boon to owners of little suburban or country homes where the aforesaid rest-seeker has been accustomed to drop in unannounced at any time, just for friend- ship’s sake, you know. el Memoirs of a Commuter By Barton Wood Currie Concealed Weapons tn the Suburbs and the Plumber-Judge.

Therefore, she practised strict economy, trimmed all her own hats, took @ Course in Cooking and spent her spare time improving her mind reat ing Emerson, Ibsen and the articles in the Woman's Magatines on “How to Hold a Husband.” She soon had all the theorics on this last subject so well digested that she felt that she could have held a BRONCO with one hand and her eyes shut. All she needed was the PRACTICE. But, somehow, although most of the men she met admired her and called her “a nive girl,” none of them invited her out or called her “Baby. For a long time she fatled to understand this, and it was not until she had spent twenty-seven yeare by her own steam-heat-side, with nothing but her principles for company, that a great light dawned upon her. Then, in a eudden flash of inspiration, rhe flung her books and her the ories into the waste basket, hurried downtown and bought thirty-sie puffs, @ box of guaranteed “girlish color,” enough diamonds to dazele a drummer With these she moved from her hall bedroom into a flashy hotel, cultivated a broad “a” to match the furnishings and proceeded to inaugurate a fresh campaign. “For,” she remarked, “I opine that the first principle of success in matrte mony. according to the law of sequence, consists not in knowing how to HELEN | HOLD a husband, but in knowing how to GET one. Also, a man takes @ woman at her own valuation, and he doesn't want anything that looks ae It's all right to deliver the goode tf you can, but put your money into the display window—bdecause the average man's interest in a girl nowadaye is the kind that yielde siz per cent.
