How'd YOU LIKE
TO SLIP ON THIS?

The layers Of ice encrusting the
sidewalks continue to permeate the
pedestrian with pardonable apprehen-
sions. Many people have been 80 un-
fortunate as to fall and suffer annoy
ing contusions, while those who are
able to cherish their equipoise, propi-
tiate locomotion with obvious difficult
ty. Foot-walkers are rapidly acquir-
ing the habit of plodding along in the
middle Of the streets instead of trust
ing themselves to the caprices Of the
glistening pavements.
The tremendous promptitude with
which a person collapses to the ground
after stepping on a segment of dis
ingenious ice, inclines the onloJker
to laugh until he realizes that per-
haps a serious accident has been
averted only by an imperceptible ges-
ture of chance. At present the ice
manifests no intention of degenerate
ing into the less dreaded slush, and
so long as it remains, everyone COM
ing in contact with it, normally or alb
normally, will labor under the sever
est uneasiness, save the boys with
their sleds, who are enjoying them
selves while the opportunity exists.
Cool Spring Park. the Barley Mill
Dam and every other important slope
to be found in the city, are crowded
with skaters.
