NEW YORK. Uxpert watch repairers. fee A Disease From "Wliich. Many Boys Suffer in City and Country. 'Coming oa the train from Boneville yesterday I sat behind two boys who ivero trying to impress me and every one else an the smoking car with the fact that they were men of the world and fairly desperate characters.

They were between IS and ilO. I should jude, land, this age, under proper conditions, repre sasfts the full bloom of amateur deviltry and jbolishness. These boys were not from the country. They were from Boneviile, and they affected that superior manner and easy Knowledge ot the world which come from a long residence in town. From the moment they came, into the car and fell into their seats with smiling abandon tbey were acting.

They wanted every one to know that they were experienced and reckless young men to whom a journey by railroad was aa every day incident. Perhaps they deceived each other, but they didn't deceive any one else. Their acting was too labored. "Say, Ed, have you got another cigar there in your pocket?" "What's the dift if I have?" "Ain't you to set 'cm up to a smoke?" "Wliy the dickens didn't you buy some cigars before we started You might know we can't get no good cigars over at Ransom. They don't keep any kind over there but them regular stogies." "Oh, rats! Be a sport and set 'em up." These introductory remarks were made in tones which aroused every one in the car.

An old time traveMng man across the aisle from me had his head down on his grip and was trying to catch a little sleep when the two began. He opened his eyes slowly and shook his head. "Two more of those 'train robbers," he murmured. Before the train started the two desperados made several allusions to some experience of the night before. They made frequent use of the word beer in order to let It be known that they were confirmed drinkers, and, also, they garnished their loud talk with clumsy swearing.

There are several kinds of profanity and some of it is not only endurable but actually enjoyable, if you can disregard the question of morality. A commander urging bis soldiers in the madness of battle is not generally blamed if he swears a little. A cowboy handling a broncho, a boss canvas man directing a circus gang, an impatient man milking a cow in fiytime, a freight brakeman who misses a coupling or a bike rider who smashes his wheel ten miles from a repair shop may let out a string of expletives that are simply picturesque in variety and intensity. 1 don't say that these men are justified in giving vent to their feelings, but I do say that sometimes it is worth going miles to hear them. Bui: I abhor "the swearing of the young man who does not know how to swear.

He does not swear by impulse or from habit. He has to struggle 'to accomplish anything and he is half ashamed of Ihimself at the time. Under such circumstances becomes an appalling wickedness, even to 'the most hardened rounder. As I eat behind those two boys and listened to their noisy discussion of the late orgies and their painful efforts to impress us with their worldliness it occurred to me that it would be a good idea to take those two boys out and have them photographed in their summer suits, with the flashy white felt hats and rainbow cravats, and alter that let them talk for aibout thirty minutes into a phonograph. Twenty years from now, after they have become seedy and hard headed married men, with growing children of cnelr own, it would give 'Jaem cause for reflection if they could take out these photographs and study them and then ilisten 'to their own conversation in the phonograph.

No doub't they would exclaim: "What spectacular bladders we must have been!" The two boys on the train were fairly good types. I have seen the same kind of young man in every small town. Sometimes my sense of humanity moves me to appeal 'to the young man. I feel as if I ought to go up to him and say: "My dear boy, don't be so desperate. Don't think because you worry your mother that you are really bad.

There are thousands of young men in this country who wear their hats pulled forward and their cigars pointed up the same as you have them, and they have the same kind of toothpick shoes and speckled neckties, and they use the current slang just as awkwardly as you do, and are just as far behind on 'the popular songs. Because you drank two glasses of beer night before las'; and then sang 'A Hot Time in the Old Town' through the principal streets, that's no sign that you are a person of any importance. Don't hold your shoulders in 'that position when you walk, and please don't swagger. It's a great effort for you to be tough, and it annoys other people." I hope that no one will take it that I am rapping the small town. I was born and reared in a tmall town, and nearly all of my (friends live in 'the small towns.

All that I wish to do is 'to call attention to one of the features of town life. Fortunately for the public good, the bad young man in the small town usually calms down after a certain period. Occasionally, it is matrimony that takes the kinks out of him, or it may be that he simply outgrows his foolishness. I should say that the trouble usually "begins when the boy first goes out at night. For this reason many parents say that children should never be permitted to run at large after nightfall.

When a boy becomes larger than his father and is earning a salary on his own account, however, the parental authority weakens. The boy begins to carry pale cigars in his upper vest pocket and then he learns to Waltz, and very soon he ceases to explain what is keeping him out at night. The sense of liberty intoxicates him. By constant association with other callow young people who are attempting to acquire all the manly vices he picks up, in a superficial and second hand way, the vocabulary and the mannerisms of the flashy element in the city. He has a sudden ambition to wear rakish and sporty garments and talk slang.

His close friends encourage him and he comes to believe that he is actually wicked. For seme reason he is intensely gratified to know that he is wicked, so he puts himself on exhibition at all hours of the day and night, lest some one should suspect him of being tame and unsophisticated. Until he recovers from the delusions of this Smart Aleck period there is no living with him. He is not susceptible to argument. He knows more than all the colleges and faculties put together.

The two boys on the train were suffering from Smart Alecklsm in its worst form. My heart bled for them. They were to old to be spanked and not old enough to be guided by the light of reason. Their chief joy in life seemed to be that they were on speaking terms with the brakeman. I wondered if I had ever heen as tough as they were and as happy in the knowledge of my toughness.

I hope not. Chicago Record. THE IKI, ON A TANDEM. She Thought She Might Pedal on the Hills. A certain newspaper youth is a devotee of 'Hie bicycle, hut lie lias had 'time and opportunity for but little riding.

Consequently, he still wheels with many of the weaknesses of tie novice, prominent, among which is a tendency to tire easily. Of course, he is gradually conquering all these drawbacks. long ago this youth and another invited two young women to accompany them 'on a ride. One of the girls assented readily, but the other hung 'back. She wasn't much of a rider, sho said.

She knew lit tie about it. She had been out alone so few times. She didn't believe she could ride so far. But. of course, the young men insisted that she must go.

and it was finally agreed that a tandem should be secured and the novice girl ar.d the newspaper youth should use it. So they started en their Journey. The giri was helped into her place and then the other youth cautioned her about the handle bar. "Don't, turn it." he "it will make it so muen Harder for George." George was newspaper man. Well, they got along pretty well until thev tried to climb a pretty steep grade in.

Gordon Park. Poor George had pumped away diligently and was almost xhausyii, but he faced the hlli gamely. He had wondered all along why they should send him a frightfully iard running tandem, but he was too much of a man to in. So he faced the hill resolutely. It was an awful case of pumping.

Globules of perspiration trickled down George's face. His legs ached. His sight was blurred. And then that dear girl suddenly spvko up: "Say, George," she said, "can't I help pedal Just a little now?" The shock almost threw George from the tandem. The dear girl, in her anxiety not to interfere with him.

hadn't pedaled a blessed revolution on all that weary ride. CIevliad Plain Dealer. "Could you love a man who was cowardly, Julia?" "Well, I should want lUim to have courage enough to propose."
