One senator, he says, he has twice shaw

his beard grows so fast, but because the

he devotes any amount of attention.
He did not reveal all this to any

SLIDING DOWN HILL.
IN CITIES THIS SPORT is KNOWN AS
coAsTiNG.

No Matter h It L. Called. 1t Is One Of
the Most Thrilling of Mundane Amuse-
ments - MeteorIc Descents and Jolly,
Froiicsome Tramps Up Again.
Coasting is the name applied in cities
and towns to that northern winter sport
which in it's most modern evolution is
termed tobogganing and requires . spe-
cially constructed slide for its practice.
Riding down hill" is what it used to be
called in certain country districts 20 or
80 years ago, and by this term 1t Is still
known in many localities. Its name
doesn't matter anyway. Tic there is a
more thrilling earthly amusement, Ihave
yet to enjoy 1t or hear of it.
1t is only in certain places that the
sport ever rises to the dignity of science,
or that it can be practiced with compar-
alive safety. In cities or towns or their
ear vicinity there is oom only in the
streets, and there the danger from col
