pliclty in its very essence, for in regard
to it people commit the same error that
we have Just denounced, confounding
the secondary with the essential. sub
stance with form. They are tempted
to believe that simplicity presents GER
tain external characteristics by which
1t may be recognized and In which It
really consists, Simplicity and lowly
station, plain dress a modest dwelling.

three men on the street, the first in his
carriage, the others on foot and one of
them shoeless. The shoeess man does
not necessarily lead the least complex
life of the three, 1t may be, indeed,
that he who rides in his carriage is sin
cere and unaffected, In spite of his po-
Biti0n, and is not at all the slave of his
wealth. 1t may be also that the pedes-
ttinn in shoes neither envies him who
rides nor dcspises him who goes un-
shod; and lastly 1t is possible that I'M
der his rags, his feet In the dust, the
third man has a hatred Of simplicity,
of labor, of sobriety, and dreams only
Of idleneSs and pleasure, for among the
least simple and straightforward of
men must he reckoned professional
beggaIs, knights of the road, parasites
and the whole tribe Of the obsequious
and snylous, whose aspirations are
summed up in thls-to arrive at selzing

sumo.
And to this same category, little

Detectives Moore and Baker are
plain clothes men indeed today. They

The two detectives bought a horse
and buggy for official duty and asked
permission to build shed back of
the city. hall for the buggy and
small stable for the horse. The mat
ter was referred by the legislative
boards to the police commissioners
with power to act, but an exam
ination of the patrol house revealed
the fact that there was one extra
stall and the detectives were busy
this morning fitting out the stall and
preparing the place for their horse.
A small shed in the rear of the
patrol house will be sufficient to pro-
tect the buggy.
