It Was His Idea of What Would Be Alb.
solutely Ideal Conditions.
The American newsboy can almost
self. If he has any, he has certainly
created it, for of all the inhabi tants of
this planet there is .csle who is so abso.
lutely independent, S, thoroughly con-
fident of his own exertions. He has a
self Importance, derived from his ability
to support Or partially support himself,
which places him high above the rank
Of the ordinary gamin, and he generally
possesses what is far more important j ,
any community-ready money. He is
the capitalist of our junior civilization,
the Count Esterhazy of newsboys' alley.
He can play craps for money when other
boys are constrained to pursue this de-
lectable amusement with only the mild
er if more intellectual pleasure of study
ing the fluctuations of fortune, or, at
most, hazarding cigarette pictures.
He may swear a little more than is
necessary, but in general is not half
bad. His train Of thought is usually
healthy and vigorous and has a robust
ness born Of the outer air in which he
spends SO much of his time. Physically
he is agile and almost t~ireless. While
apparently reckless in most things, he
is, on the whole, careful Of his health
he is scarcely ever known to smoke q
whole cigarette at a time. His intellect
is as keen as a razor. He keeps it con-
tinually honed on the strop of expert
once. Everything carries for him a les
son. From the sale of the largest Sun
day paper to that of the most ~unpreten-
tious weekly there is nothing he does
not profit by.
He is a born ~statist, a self educated
strategist. He has the nice art of going
far enough and yet never o~verstepping
himself. On the eve of such an occasion
he will vociferate, "All about the cleo
tion," but don't ever expect of whom
until you buy the paper. Pleasure and
other things occupy a fair proportion Of
his time, but with him the distribution
Of news is always uppermost. 1t ever
permeates his sleeping hours. One of
them was heard to remark between sales
to another a day or SO ago. "Say. Jim,
! had de finest dream I ever had las
