1.-The rainbow isn't in 1t now with

guard to his neighbor on the platform.
and he continued:
"Just glance in there, will you, and
let your eye range along at the mems
feet Purple, green, yellow, blue, red,
gray, pink and black socks, and socks
Of one color with spots Of another and
socks with stripes In 'em and cross
bars and socks OF various colors mix
ed, and III bet with all those colors
that knock heck out of the rainbow
you see that one pair there with no
color In 'em plainest of all? Sure, It's
that pair OF white socks, the only
pair In the car; and you might trav-
81 here day after day and not see an
other pair.
They tell me, and l can Just re-
member a little OF it myself, that
there was time when men didn't
wear anything but white socks. White
socks, and maybe some gray, and then
they cams to black. but who'd have
thought they'd ever come to this? l

"Umpty-ump street! Umpty.ump

-The rainbow's a back number

Cousin Mary or Cousin John realized
all this as, of course. no one who has
not lived in a great city can really
realize II. they would understand bet
ter Just why they had not been in
vited to visit Toms folks. 1t is not
because Tom and his wife @ish to
slight Mary and her husband that
they have not invited them to visit
them in the city. but because posi-
lively the city cousins have not enough

Durham cathedral at Durham is
one of the most important and
one of the most grandly situated
of English cathedrals. 1t is
placed on an elevated tongue of
land almost entirely surrounded
by a horseshoe bend of the River
Wear. Of the cathedral D. Sam
uel Johnson has we'll said that it
made on him an impression of
rocky solidily and indeterminate

rightly made for Durham as the
grandest Norman building in the
country.
| passed to York one of the
most interesting of the Oldest
English cities. This town of 80,
900 or more people came into
prominence as far back as the
second century, being the chief
Roman station in the province
of Britain, the headquarters of
the 9th Legion, and the frequent
residence of the emperors. Con-
stantine the Great was pro-
claimed emperor here in BOG.
Following the advice given me
by friends | first made a Circuit
of the city walls which were
built about the middle of the
18th century partly on the line
of the old Roman walls. For
nearly three miles | walked on
the top Of the wall from which l
had a splendid view of the city
and especially of the Cathedral.
York Minister, as the cathedral
is generally known, is one of
the largest and grandest Ca
thedrals in England. The inter-
ior is one of the noblest l have
seen. 1t is grand in it's wonder
full simplicity. Perhaps York
Minister excels all other English
Cathedrals in original stained
glass. The glass in one window
dates from about 1900.
