For the rebels mainly the sort of men agitetors and plotters can elways gather to- gether in a city. Sinn Fein conspirators end German agents found iiétle difficulty in rekindling old hatreds and lawless passions among the Dublin rabble. Disturbances in other parte of Ireland amounted to little or nothing. The great body of the Irish public utterly repu- diated the rioters, and Irish soldiers were even more bitter than English in denouncing the teattors.

Here is one of the most important improvements the city hes ever contemplated. A water front which any European capital would be proud to possess, and which it would have long since converted into a valuable asset of beauty and convenience, is at last to be redeemed by New York. It would seem that the foremost park experts and landscape architects of the country should be called in to co-operate with mu-' nicipal and railroad company engineers in order that the final result may be in every way a lasting credit to the city. Yet sightliness appears to be so far only a secondary considera- tion. “Make a tunnel and fix it up somehow later,” is, eo far as can be made out, the official policy. If the job is done on this principle, in twenty years or so the city will find itself shamed into correcting at great expense a blunder that should never have been committed. i The time to lay out the Riverside Park improvement as i should be laid out is now. And the element of beauty is as important ae the element of construction. The park authorities should be invited to being their best thought to bear on the plans.

S ENATOR THOMPSON may have good and sufficient reasons for directing the attention of his investigating committee to the! subway cave-ins of last September. it had already been pretty well established, however, that timber bracing in subway excavations juet before the collapses in Seventh Avenue and Broadway had been allowed by the contractors to become oriminelly inadequate. Also that Public Service Commission engi- neers had failed to note defects in storing which a mining engineer spotted at first glance. How far is this trail to be followed before the committee returns to the investigation of the subway contracts with the Interborough, The “Commitments and Steady, consistent search where it had made only a promising start?

Yet, after a while, she grew so accustomed to It datly DUTIES to her. If by some mishap he did not come home at the moment she expected she was petu- lant and began to nag. John himself did not realize how his hummoring of her had grown into such @ habit; but, being a good fel- low, and beleving that it was e man's place to create happiness for his mate, he kept on, yet very often winced under her unjust demands when she proved _over-exacting. Everybody looked on Ethel as a vei happy woman, which she was, though she had never had any oon- trast to prove it. After a while John became a “regu- lar thing” to her and she accepted all his attention as her natural right. At the same time, the early interest to please him seemed to be slipping away from her, because there was no real incentive for it. She knew he would be her slave, no matter what she did. Now, it came to pass that John’s business took him to the big city and they went there to live. Pretty soon they became acquainted with people who were interested with John in business and soon they had a nice |cirele of friends. | Ethel, a country belle, did not shine #0 much In the city, since there re 60 many attractive women. But she ruled her husband in the same old way, believing that she could hold him always by her domineering John was good looking, and steriing qualities were very w recognized, In the little soctal set there wasawoman.

She found matters concerning his business to talk about and always he went home from little gatherings where he was, mentally reflecting “what_a compantonable woman that is." On two or three occasions, in- nocently enough, he remarked about it to Ethel. One day the woman had some business downtown and John met her accidentally, They had lunch She was furious at John's “taking such a liberty,” but her pride was wounded, She said nothing, though she resolved to watch. The next time they were all together she saw the admiring glances of the woman for her husband. Also she realized how John enjoyed them and how pleased he seemed to be in her com; ‘Then she saw herself as in a looking glass, She realized that she had taken her husband TOO MUCH FOR GRANTED; that he was only human; | that he ‘ould not always go on play- jing the faithful dog, and that no man lis entirely won by the marriage cere- |mony, She chonved her tactles and won him back; but always she had to do her part in the winning process. | MORAL; Even in a marriage monopoly the saves of appreciation ~ ate jvm be FH + made the attempt.
