But you can't live in a tree. How do

The Boy certainly thought that queer.
but he didn't worry about it. He pre-
pared to start.
Have you got a picture box?' asked
Alice. There are a lot Of things I want
pictures Of and you may take them for me-"
-Oh, you mean a camera?" said the Boy.
Sure I've got one"
So he got the Gamers and they started
out.
They went in a cab. Alice said il was all
right, the driver wouldn't see them. And
the man and the girl in the cab didn't seem
to mind. for they saw only themselves. and
anyway Alice wasn't a real person.
And by this time the Boy wasn't real
either. He pinched himself TO see il he
was and his fingers went right through.
But now he didnt think il queer at all.
This park is just the biggest playground
l ever saw ssid Alice. as they entered
the gate at West Seventy-second street.
But IL is needed. for there are thousands

happen along. something really exciting.
And then he realized that he wasn't alone.
somehow a little girl had got into the room.
There seemed to be something familiar
about her but he couldn't quite place her.

said the girl.

II know you now" said the Boy. Il

'"But I've come out of the books" said
Alice. Il couldn't stand the Illustrations.

year. and years I'd been living with all
the boys and girls, big and little, and they
got to know me and il was all nice and

Then a man named Newell got hold Of
me and splotched me all over with mussy
colors out Of his paint box. He took my
friends. the Mac Halter and the Cheshire
Cat and Humpty Dumpty and even Tweedle-
DUN and ~Tweedledee, and he splotched
them all over with color. too. till l just

@No they wouldn't neither said Alice,

She took the Boy into the bear cage and
started to introduce him. But eha bear
growled and the Boy got 20 scared that he
remembered that he was q real person.
And there he was in his room and there

The next noticeable structure is the
Stuyvesant Theatre. one Of the fifty-seven
or 60 varieties built by David Belasco from
his profits made in fighting the theatre
trust. BY nature David is long haired
and peace loving. but when a purse is hung
up big enough to fight for it is difficult to
keep him out Of the ring.
Next we discover the Gerard Hotel.
built when this part of town was on the
outskirts Of civilization. 1t was intended
as a roadside resort and is surprised to
find itself in the glare OF the Great White
Way and shOuldered on all sides, by the
resorts Of city Jakes.
ACROSS the street on the left is the home
OF the American actor. the Lambs. This
institution started in London. but the pro-
fessiOn over there couldn't stand the cost.

all actors draw $500 a week and are never

Now, please pay strict attention 10 the
fine five story broWnstone mansion next
west Of the Hudson. You see an army Of
workmen busily engaged doing over the old
place, extending and deepening It's base
ment, fitting il throughout with every
appliance for comfort and luxury.
1T is TO be the home OF yet another club.
We have passed some notable clubs in our
short journey, some world famed for their
offers Of comfort and luxury. but in these
respects none will exceed this, whose cluh

beyond we come to the pretty little
Rlalto Hotel. and continuing, finish the
block by discovering on our right the Cri-
teriOn and New York theatres. Opposite
is the Hotel Astor. which has acres OF ac-

Opposite. on our right as We proceed
westward. is tho ST. Nicholas Club. its
middle Alpine architecture deity sug-

related to the club. Spike Hennessy and
Jimmy Hope-well known characters Of
a former day-would rave ~despaired OF

The next, very large, very a~ustere, very

school for girls. If you want to find the
richest men in New York find the parents
OF the pupils in hat school. You prove
your proposition in stating il, as the man
said when he was asked if he would have
a drink
Kindly turning your gaze to the left you
see a vast 200 foot front structure with
a general look Of solidity and respecta-
bihty which causes all passersby to read
what is spelled out on the bronze tablet
to the left of the entrance. 1t is The Cen
eral Society Of Mechanics and Tradesmen
OF the City OF New York. Technical Schools
and Library. Founded 1885, There, ladies'
and gentlemen, is another typical institu-
ton.

society does. II he can tell you I'll buy.
yet it supports grand technical schools
and has the finest library of its kind in the
city. II never had a press agent.
-Oncc more to your right. There is the
Berkeley Theatre, occupied at present by
Mr.. Arnold DAILY and his ideas. What they
are is the secret which press and public
alike are sitting up nights-at home-to
guess.
Adjoining h theatre, as We proceed
west, is the Berkeley Lyceum and Gym
nasium. Inever did know what a lyceum
was, but you will observe. to help YOU
guess, that the League for Political Edu-
cation lives there. Also the National Con-
servatory OF Dramatic Art. When I find
a successful politician educated by a league
I'll introduce him TO a successful actor edu-
Gated in a conservatory and buy for both.

Leaving institutions for education
and art, we see next, on our right. the
building Of the Harvard Club, constructed
from the kind OF bricks the university was
named after, and gray stone. The build
ing, you will observe, is only half as large
as the Yale Club to which I shall presently
call our attention. That is because. as
