Well Conducted.

An Orderly City In Which Affairs Are
/ Well Conducted.
Things are done well in the City Of
Good Airs. There are good things to
eat, comfortable rooms to live in
places where a man can get his eXer-
else and outdoor sport. After the trop-
les the gringo feels like a man who
has been hopping from foothold to
foothold in a swamp and steps at last
on solid ground. The creature comforts
of a capable, wide awake, well ar
ranged city soothingly envelop him.
The cochero knows where he wants to
go, the waiter knows what he wants
to eat. The mounted policeman, in
breastplate and horsetan helmet, rides
him back with the rest of the crowd
and does it SO quietly and with
such sophisticated nonchaiance that he
promptly conceives a passionate adj
miration for that policeman and his
beautiful horse, falls into the COM
munistic pride common to all city
jewellers and is ready to declare that
there is no other policeman so fine in
the world The streets are clean and
well kept, and the buildings which line
them, however gingerbready their archi-
lecture, are held within decorous max
imum and minimum limits of height
Everything is near at hand The no.
tel, club, bank, drive, the restaurants
and theaters are all within, so to say,
feeling distance. And this physical
compactness and neatness, this con-
tinental glitter and activity, set here
oasis-like, combine to give the whole a
certain diminutiveness and coy init
macy. There's a "little old Buenos
Aires" too.-Arthur RuhI in Scribner's

The Grave of Adam.

April 1 was marked on old calendars
as the Memorial of Adam" The orr
entails relate that Adam, when dying,
charged his children to bury his body,
embalmed with myrrh, incense and
'cassia, in the cave of Al-Kanuz, near
paradise. When they quilted the place
they were to convey his body to the
center of the earth, whence would
come salvation to his posterity. This
is said to have been done by Noah and
Melchizedek, who reburfed him on the
sacred hill of CaIvary.-Chicago News.
