The Lonely Cotswoldi Nearly Touoh The World's Biggost City. The Cotswolds are un xnniple of the variety of natural scenery tbut Eng land succeeds in mckiug away within hor narrow sea burrod boundaries, Here, within three hours of the largest city in the world, you can wulk in couipleto loneliness over a grassy road that follows the roulo laid out by Ito muu engineers, with u tumbled sky line of real mountains on your right and a sweep of empty fields falling awny to the left You rati take tea In an old Itoman villa, where Hie tiled courtyard Is still smooth and tight; you tan sleep In nn Inn that has apparent ly not changed its habits or its bill of fare since the days of Richard the Crusader. As mountains the Cotswolds cannot pretend to any great eminence or bold ness. They have no attractions for tho mun wbo wishes to brave steep cliffs or for him who would travel for a week on end through a single pine dark valley. They are well bred little hills coiujmred with the Alps or the Rockies, but they have tho true mountain liuvor of loneliness and sturdy charm. The occaNruuul farmhouse enhances the po cullur feeling of Isolation, for a sluglo human dwelling only serves to set oil loneliness. And the roads are a perpetual do light Tho King's highway winds through these hills a public road that would cost the landed proprietor who owns the ground on either side of it half his fortune in legal expenses to closo up. Exchange. NEW YORK'S DOWNTOWN. Where Those "Tired Business Men' Earn Their Daily Breed. There Is a region of mystery Into which the metropolitan husband and" father vanishes between 7:30 und 8:-13 a. m. six days In the week and from which bo emerges lu the late after noon. He is welcomed, after the muu- ner of all returning warriors, with tender solicitude. Downtown Is the trackless jungle Into which father plunges to stulk the fumlly's living. After 10,000 years of civilization it is still the same. Anx ious eyes follow him from the wig wam till be turns Ibo corner to the railroad station,' and fond eyes greet him as he staggers out of the elevator door In his apartment house home with his prey, so to speak, on his shoulder. Wives will never be reconciled to downtown. It swallows up tho mail of tho house when ho would much ruther stay at home and play with the chil dren so he pretends und it sends him home at night too tired to be agreeable -as he asserts. Thus the little game goes on. The primitive hunter, 1 imagine, made believe that he hated to leave the family and go off into tho' dark forest, and on bis return he threw him self before the Are too tired to speak. Actually. I believe, the primitive hunt er as soon as ho was out of sight of home broke Into a cheerful whlstle.- Slmeon Strunsky lu Harper's Maga zine. Primogeniture.
