New York Crowds.

The hurry and the hustle of a New
York crowd Everybody talks about it,
Everybody feels rushed. 1t is tradi
ton that the whole population of the is
land of Manhattan is on the dead run
fully 20 hours out of the "a. But some
time just take the time to notice the
crowd and your progress on the street
and at the same time actually try to
move rapidly. Don't try to move against
the crowd. That isn't a fair test. Get
on your own side of the walk and &C
with the throng. Have five minutes in
which to get from Wall street to the
postof1ice. You can easily doit, you say.
Try it.
See how many men you will stumble
up against in your haste. Notice the
number who are standing like trees in
the middle of the walk admiring the
pictures in the windows opposite. Watch
the action of the whole mass of people
when they come to a workman placing
a stone in a new building. 1t will be
evident to you then that the normal con
dition of a New York crowd is one ol
rest.
When one looks down upon the crowd
it seems busy. 1t is really a sluggish
stream. Try to go faster than the cur
rent and you will find how slow it reall.

little out OF the usual. The children
look too young TO be hers, so make in

adoption. She found these children with
a dying mother, whom she made happy
by promising to care for them. How
faithfully she is keeping her promise
She has taken them to her heart. They
show, as children always do. that they
have not Only food and clothes, but love,
and plenty of it. Do you wonder that l
