lie In the Dnw of (lie Curb In the
llrlilnli Slctroiinlln.
London's outdoor tunn Is the eoator.
Ho is t!i lHlimncl of the. put tons. A
vdry jolly IUiiimol, It u true, who Is
uioro than content to acknowledge the
lino of demarcation between himself
nrnl the true cockney. Hut, neverthe
less, In a modified, twentieth century
way ho Is still the wild man whoso
hand Is against every man's and every
man's against his. lie Is probably the
last remnant of the world's old race, of
"wanderers tho last suggestion of the
primitive man left to the cities, lie Is
to us town dwellers what the gypsy Is
to the countryside. Ills descent seems
to spring from tho Hamo roving stock.
And ho is regarded, from a safe dis
tance, with the same contempt by
thoso who don't know him. Ills habits
nnd bis Impulses still savor strongly of
tho days when, tribe warred against
tribe and every nums arm was for
himself aud his clau.t And, although
his pitch Is below tho curb, his caravan
n barrow and his boast of burden a
Russian pony, a donkoy or himself, be
Is ns free nnd exclusive as any .other
lusty scion of ttho pooplo who 11 vo. under
tho skies. Ishmaol ho Is, and Ishmael
he chooses to remain. And the chance?
nre ten to dno that whoever goes a-flslr
lng for Information among thu barrows
wlH como back with an empty, creel or
n fine show of fishermen's talcs, for
3'our coster knows both how to keep
Bllonco and how to use his tongue pic
turosquely In defense of his jealously
guarded traditions and 'the Internal
economies of his existence. Outing.
