THE CITY AS A SUMMER
RESORT.
Copyright. 1918, by DR.. Frank Crane,

1t Is commonly supposed that every
body is out of town in the summer. ALI
the resorts advertised are In the coun-
try. To look at the newspapers you
would imagine that all of the city's
inhabitants had gone to the lakes, the
sea and the woods.
But as a matter of fact the streets
are as crowded as in winter. The hotels
are full, the sidewalks are thronged,
the street cars are packed.
The truth Is that while CITY people
go to the country, country people come
to the city for their vacation.
What everybody wants is something
else. The family that has been eleven
months in fiat longs to spend the
holiday month at some place where
they can find trees, grass, water and
other outdoor luxuries. But when one
has spent his eleven-twelfths of time
on farm or in a sleepy village he
Graves bit Of city experience.
The provincial wants to walk the
jostling streets and feel the inspira-
ton of the multitude. He wants to take
long draughts Of that Of which the
countryside is scant-humanity.
He wants to explore the tall build
ings and see the unfamiliar habitat of
the cliff dwellers."
He wants to wander in the buzzing
corrldors OF the mugs hotels and eat q
meal that costs him as much as q
weeks board at home.
He wants to peep into the tinseled
saloons. to watch in cabarets the life
of the night birds, to ride on the tram
ways for miles between rows Of shops,
to mix in the confusion Of department
stores. and altogether to safe his
imagination with sounds and sights
strange and wonderful.
1t all tastes good to him, as good as q
shady nook, a stream and q fishing
line taste to city person.
So the cities are as full in hot as
in cold weather. And a city is after
all quite as much of show place, a
midway plaisance," as 1t is a place for
business and dwelling.
1t is sign of health: It shows the
constant circulation of the people.
Travel is the essence Of civilization
just as provincialism Is of barbarism.
The railroads are the great civilizers.
They are the weaverS of an intelligent
nationalism.
To go about is to reduce egotism, to
broaden opinion, to make patriotism
come nearer to meaning humanity.
The railroads and the newspapers
have made democracy practical in
America. have dissipated the ferment-
ing tendency of isolation.
The constant instream Of country
people into the city and outstream of
city folks into the country keep US all
from spelling.

She wore clothes of which the best
one could say was that they were last

That evening she received a box of

seen carrying to her room a box with
a dozen stems protruding from the end.
But she never wore the roses at all,

THE DAILY STORY.
A SEASIDE LOTHARIO.
Copyright. 1915, by ". werner.)

It was a bad season for men at the
Rockmere. Hard times kept them in
town. The best they could do was to
send their woman folks to the sea-
shore. Sometimes they came out for
the week end, and sometimes they
didn't. The result was that the Rock
mere was dull from the moment the
first breakfast was served at o'clock
in the morning until the last senti-
mental loiterers left the veranda at
1890 at night.
Therefore when Mr.. Simpson APP
peared one fair afternoon. followed by
well laden porter, and engaged a
second -fioor-frout suite with a bath for
ten days the feminine population of
the Rockmere was thrilled into an ex-
cited f1utter. For Mr.. Simpson was
tall and handsome and courtly, and his
smile frightened his immediate envi-
ronment like sunshine. He was mid
die aged or a little more. it is true: in
deed. Miss Peach thought him quite
elderly. The widows and the old maids
and, yes. the married women. too.
whose husbands were in town, did not
conceal the fact that they were inter-
ested in Mr.. Simpson. Everybody was
long time dressing for dinner that
night, and the effect under the electric
lights was dazzling.
Miss Peach outdid herself She
ought to have been twenty, with a
complexion to match her name. But
she only had clothes, and she wore
them in the way women do. when there
is plenty more where they came from.
Miss Peach and her clothes were nu-
cleus about which all the other women
save Susanna Saxon-gathered
Susanna Saxon was a teacher in a
girls school in the city. She was
thirty-e eight, and owned frankly to her
age. She had never been pretty, and
she wasn't pretty now, nor cared to be-

Machines Mine Coal.

The coal mining industry is being
gradually changed by the introduction
of machinery to do the work which was
formerly supposed to be possible only
by human hands. The first machines
for digging coal were put in use about
1890. but now nearly 10000 are in use.
each having an average production of
nearly $4,000 tons annually.
The machines are of two distinct
types, one saving and the other chop
ping the coal. The saving machines
attack the coal by bits. attached to an
endless chain, or to the periphery of a
disk, SO that the action is very similar
to that of saving wood. The chopping
machine loosens the coal by bits at
tached to arms, which work recipro-
cally as In the action of drilling ex-
cept that the drill is not confined to one
hole, but Is freely changed at the will
of the operator.
Mining by machinery produces a high
-er percentage of lump coal, thereby
insurtng a better price over the old
hand method. It Is economical and hu-
name, because it relieves the men in
the mines from the hardest form of
drudEery. Last year over half the coal
in Pennsylvania and West Virginia, the
two largest coal-producing states of
the nation. was mined by machinery.
Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky
also are using the machines in their
most important mines.
