English Like Hiking.
A diligent study of American news
papers discloses many crazes that
seize the people of these Islands,
which the islands themselves seem
strangely unaware of.
From such a source I learn that hik
ing is very popular in England, w’here
“a party of young people, sensibly
dressed and with staves, start at six
or seven o'clock In the morning, carry
a few sandwiches and a dftnk, walk
along country roads until noon, picnic
and rest during the heat of the day,
and then walk home in the cool of
the evening, refreshingly tired for
such a night’s sleep as only the true
hiker knows.”
Apparently it is the latest name for
a country ramble. Anyhow. Americans
are being persuaded to hike more, the
result of which is an increased sturdi
ness of mind and body.—London
Chronicle.
Something New.
Publisher—Here is a letter from a
man thanking us for sending a re
porter to rouse him at half-past eleven
at night to tell him some good news.
City Editor—Jumping Josaphat!
Most men waked up by a reporter at
half-past eleven throw the furniture
