"V.cll bTin with the spin through the p.n k, anyhow," I said. I was choking v.ith the not, rlale air f my htl!e apartment, and I wanted that breath ef the cool to brace- me for the task of proving to my fritnU that New York ww tho iTrca'.et and forth. ' Wlure can yooi find air any fresher or purer than this?" I a.-.k--l, a.a wo f-ped into Centraba bf shiest dell. ' Aair:" t-a.ld North. contemptuously.

"I have heard of it," said I. But for fragrance and tanr and a jcy in th? nostrils I wculd not Kive one pa ft of . a breeze across tiie bay, down on my little heat dook on Lor. Island, for 10 of your turpentinetyjented tornadoes." "Then why," asked North, n. little curiously, "don't you there in.'tead of 5-tayir.ir cocped up in thb Greater Bakery." "Because," .said I, dcfgedly, "I have discovered that New York is the greatest summer " "Don't say that again." interrupted North, "unless you've actually ;rol a job as general passenger apent of the subway. You can't really bell d.'o lu" I went to feme trouble to try to provo my theory to my friend. The weather bureau and the season had conspired to make the arcutner.t worthy of an able advocate. The city seemed stretched on a broiler directly above tho furnace cf Avernus. There was a hind of tepid fraycty afoot and awheel in tho boulevards, mainly evinced by languid men strolling about in idraw hats and evening: clothes, and rows of idle taxicabs with their Jlag-s up. lookin? like a blockaded Fourth ot July procession The hotels kept up a specious brilliancy and hospitable outlook, but inside- or.o saw vast empty caverns, and t.he foot-rails- at tho bars gleamed brightly from lcm?: disacquaintanee with the so'eleather ot eust miners In the croslown streets the steps of the old browns-tone houseso were swarming with "."tooporv," that motley race hailing from skylight room and basement, brintrimr out their straw dorrstep mats to sit and till tho air with strantro noises and opinions North and I dined on th.- top of a hotel; and here, for a few- minute?, I thought I had made a score. An c;st wind, almost cool, b!e across the rc'Ofle. roof. A capable orchestra concealed In a bovver of wistaria plaed with sufficient judgment to maJ;e the art of music probable ar.d the art of conversation possible. Seme ladies in reproachless? summer qovns at other table gave animation and color to the sv no. And an excellent dinner, mainly from the refrigerator, seemed to successfully baciv my judgment a to rummer resorts. But Ncith grumbled all during the meal and r;nd his lawyers and prated so of his confounded camp in the woods that I be-ran to wish he would go bad there and leave :ne in my peaceful city retreat. After dining we went to a root garden vaudeville that was bein:: much praised. Th re we found a good bill, an arthicially cooled atmosphere, cold drinks, prompt service, and a gay. wejl-d'essvd audience. North was bored. "If this isn't comfortable enough for you on the hottest August n:-;ht for live ytars." I said, a little sarcastically, "you might think about tho kids down in Ddaneey and Hester streets lying out on the hre escape? with their tomrues hanging out. tryin-c to get a br ath ot" air tliat hasn't been fried on both sides. The contrast might increase your enjoyment." Ion't talk socialism." said North. "I gave $:0'J to the free ice fund on the first cf May. I'm contrasting these -ta!e, artificial, hollow, wearisome 'amusements' with the enjoyment a man cat) trot in the woods You should see the lrs and pines do k in -dances during a storm; and lie down h it and drink out of a branch at the end cf a day's tramp after the d.r. That's the only v av to spend a summer. (Jet out ar.d live with Nature." "I aree 'vith yv. nb-alutely."
