COLD AND ENERGY.
A Novel view which May Reconcile
SOme Sufferers TO Our
Climate.

It is encouraging to note that the eli
mate. which last summer brought forth
a temperature of 104 degrees plus,
touched minus 20 this winter. Encour-
aging because the relation of tempra-
ture variation to metropolitan great
ness has radically changed in the last
1000 years. Twenty centuries ago, the
great cities OF the world were situated
in regions of small annual variation of
temperature. Athens, Rome, AlsTan-
dria, Carthage, Babylon-this was true
Of all. Some of these citieA a Athens
and Alexandria, basked in almost con-
tinuai sunshine; the others had winter
climates like that of Albuquerque and
Yuma. There Is evidence to show that
Cato never walked up at 6:30 q. m. and
discovered that the shower bath was
frozen, by breaking the valve in a vain
| endeayor to lave his noble form, and
that the indecision that cost Nillias the
battle Of Syracuse was never disciplined
! by the necessity of deciding whether
| first to fire up the furnace or 20 into the
cellar with teakettle Of hot water and
on old spring overcoat, and thaw out
the connections Of the kitchen sink.
The metropolitan life Of those days was
climatically monotonous, and the
weather occupied no space in the daily
press.
The great centers Of population to-
day are in regions of alternate heat and
cold. This rule applies to London, ST.
Petersburg, Paris, Picking and Kansas
City. Modern city life needs the slim
ulus of alternate heat and cold. The
city man of to-day takes ice cream soda
one-half the year and oyster stew the
other; the bibulous alternate beer with
Tom and Jerry. The iceman Expresses
not forever; winter comes. and with it
the conscientious plumber.
Thus the educated man is educated in
the relaxity Of things. We may sigh for
perennial summer, but a comparison Of
the value of corner lots in Kansas City
with those of Carthage, or a contrast
Of our bank clearings with those Of
Babylon, should make us content
