ACTIVITY AS A THING OF LAT
ITUDES


People who live in northern ATTITUDES
have a curious superstition that they are
themselves much more active and lively
than the people who dwell in lower lati-
tudes. The Southerners retaliate by re-
ferring to the Northerners as sluggish
people.
Certainly the evidence does not afford
very secure ground for the contention
that the people of northern ATTITUDES are
more active and lively than those of the
southern. Warmth and life are synony-
nous terms. Heat causes activity and
cold produces torpor and DEATH When
the cold winters Of the North set in, plant
life dies or becomes torpid. Many. of the
animals retire to sheltered recesses in NO
vember, and go to sleep, only awakening
with the return of warm weather.
Human beings In the far North, such
as the Esquimaux, follow the example of
the lower animals and AIoernate during the
winter In the more temperate northern
ATTITUDES, man has surrounded himself

imitation of summer conditlons-the pro-.
duction Of light and heat-that he lives a.
forced and artificial life which stimulates
him to an activity unnatural to the china
tic conditions. Braced by this false stim-
illus he endeavors to cultivate perennial
activity, and to make belief that it is the
GOODNESS Of the atmosphere which in
creases his iveliness, while, as a matter
of>fact, it is his efforts to resist natural
habits. conditions and inclinations incl
dent to the cold Northern climate which
force him into false activity. The result
Is that the return of warm weather finds
him incapacltated from continuing his ac-
tiWty during the period prescribed there
for by nature. He is overcome with Iazi-
ness and lassitude during the warm sea-
son, and untitled for pursuing the neces-
sary works of the warm season.
This applies more to the dweIler in cities
than to the dweller In the rural districts
The farmer is most active, naturally,
really active during warm weather when
nature has filed every living and grow
ing thing with life. In winter, while the
farmer does not actually hibernate. he
rests.
The inhabitants of southern ATTITUDES
have a supply of warmth all the year,
with a brief cessation of activity during
a season of rain They are active and
lively naturally for much greater por-
tlon of the year than is the Northerner
Their liveliness is not an artificial prod

TRAMPs AND RAILRoADs.

Mr.. Josiah Flynt will be remembered
even after the lapse of a few months
after the appearance of his book, as the
author of work entitled '"Tramping
With Tramps." He wrote of his personal
experiences after having for years given
his life over to association with the class
of men who take to the road and live by
begging and petty marauding. That ex-
perience was deliberately sought and was
made available for the more effective
study of great social problem.
1t is the habit of a certain class of
students Of social questions to regard the
development of the tramp as a feature of
modern civilization involving a serious
reflection on the humanity Of the exist
ing social and industrial order. MANY
intelligent and thoughtful men are very
decided in their conviction that tramps
are made by the bitterness of the life
OF him who has to earn living BY hard
and unskilled physical toll, and that the
tramps in great proportion are merely
men who have been forced to the wall
by the severity of existing conditions in
industrial life or by some inherent mental
or physical weakness.
Mr.. Flynt does not take any such view
Of the tramp He believes the tramp to
be pure and simple vagabond. Sheer
laziness is the chief weakness from which
tramps suffer, combined. of course, with
determined purpose to possess them
selves of what they can of others prop

include creatures of the cat and of the
monkey tribes. the most active of living
things. Plant life exhibits an enormous
activity which is practically and naturally
perennial
If the people in southern ATTITUDES fore
ed themselves into abnormal activity, as
do the Northerners, and stimulated and
trained their minds and bodies as the
Northerners are compelled to do in their
struggle against the rlgors of nature,
there is no doubt that the southerner
would take the lead in that delusive crea-
ton of human vanity designated civilized
progress.

Ho! FOR THE ExPosTTIoN,

The anxiety of some people to visit
the Paris exposition is positively touch
ing. They seem to be under the deluslon
that unless they get there the success Of
the exposition will be endangered. and
they are probably consumed with a desire
to attain to that social eminence and su-
periority which can only be attained by
the ''habitoos'' of Ga belle Paree." A
visit to the great French fair means dis

One laudabfe change in England IS that

fourished in the higher social classes, IS
now everywhere discouraged. John Payn
says that sixty years ago the gilded
aristocracy looked down on every one
who derived his income from such a
source save bankers. whom they dared
not despise Young men thought them
selves heroic in preferring a profession,
with probable penury. to an assured
competence with their hands sOiled by
trade. This absurd prejudice is now as
much ridiculed by young men as by old
men.
