LURE OF THE GREAT CITY
In Spite of Royal Mandate London Has
Always Proved Irreslstiblo
to the Rich.
Royal pioclaniatlons, which In these
dn.vs of stress follow fast and follow
faster, tlllVer In one Important respect
from the output of Hie Tudor and
Jacobean ilu.vs; they merely proclaim
what Hie law allows. One of the most
ruilntin efforts to seeuie reform by
proclamation of the Illegal kind was
that made while London was expand
ing at a feveilsh rate and the coun
ties were supposed to he suffering by
the desertion of the nobility anil gen
try, says the London Chronicle.
Proclamations were Issued by James
I forbidding the erection of new build
ings lu the metropolis, and ordering
tho well-to do to reside lu their coun
try houses for the piod of their neigh
bors iitid the poor. One of these king
ly efforts pointed to "those swarms of
gentry, who, through the Instigation
of their wives, or to new-model ami
fashion their daughters (who, If they
were unmarried, marred their' reputa
tions, nnd, If married, lost them) did
neglect thijlr country hospitality, and
cumber the city, a general nuisance to
the kingdom." In spite of the star
chamber, however, and heavy lines
(one Sussex gentleman was lined
1,000) the lure of Londiiri proved
IrrcslMlble, and the melancholy pre
diction of James was realized, 'Uhat
England will shortly he Loudon and
London Euglnud."
Ritlcence and Discretion.
"I suppose oti know the answer to
about any question an Interviewer
could ask?"
"Possibly," replied Senator Sorghum.
"The fact that 1 know the real answer
so thoroughly Is sometimes what
makes me u tillle dlllldent about ex
pressing myself."
Accounting for It.
"I know a man who hud a hundred
curtain calls In u week."
"I suppose he Is a matinee Idol."
"No; he was a house furnisher."
Much of our time hns been wasted
ny people who Insisted on telling uu
their Imaginary troubles.
Hut a mnn never has the same Inter
est In life after he loses tho principal
he had In the bank.
