So it struck me with it tingle of
surprise, one day, :to. overhear a new
reading of thelterm. . IC `was .a clever
women who used it, learned in histo
ries and school, well .known, to plat
lorms-and pressrooms, but'eqnally
so:Nto fashionable dinner-tablea, and
saions ; with a social place equal \ to

man of he world of equally good
position, nke wound up something
she had said\ witiOhe phrase, " For
Such Ilohemisitr a. 4 yon and me, my
dear fellow"—and then/ seeing Ids
look of surprise, she added, smiling:
"For we are Bohemians, aren't we ?
-good Bohemians,' !"
Sure enough! Why n t? ',‘ Heaven"
i:\
says a' quaint essayist, is a disposi
Lion, not a place. Tile real, the bet
ter `Bohemia is neithet geogrhical
nor local, it is bounded by-no d ine of
ortune or caste, it lies in the temper
and intelligence of ,its children. \lt
is not to be sought only. in .13r6b
Street or Printing-House Rol -- ; tt
Quartier Latin, or the Studio Build
ing, or Leicestef Square. Its real
bonds lie far beyond, wide as human
nature, and no cases or neighborhood
but canahow some scrap of its terri
tory.
Read the term-in its ihore imagi
native Sense, get at' its.essentialehar
acteristics and not its mere exterior
traits.. If we are to make a -meta
phor 'of a name-let us at least manu
facture-it on liner principles and 'net
on the cheapest points of resemblance :
The geographical Gitano is 'vaarant„
lawless, idle' and often dishonest.
Very well. So .much for , the bad
Boheniian; or the Boheq.an :pure
andfiimple.. Under that - title; as I
lia4e hinted before, it is fair enough
to class all Abe shiftless, -restless,
entrust worthy . people, who are. pop
ularly understood by the term. 'But.
the y,ingato is inde pendent,-,brave,
adroit, with a wild poetry and elas
ticity 'in his personal habits, and
hints st leash of an imaginative mys
ticism in hi 4 traditions •or 'his reli
gion. Translats these,qualities - into
the language of modern life. ' Wher
ever you find men_ or 'women, what
ever their station or calling, brave
independent, adroit, and imaginative
there, be sure, you have changed up
on a specinen of the Children of the
Sun, the Olosrn people.. In so far,
-at least,they are Bohemian, though,
to justify: their title of good, they
may pay their-debts' wear. clean linen
use good grammer, keep a penny fur
a rat.ny day, and altogether behave
like, the respectable citizens they
are. Independence, in thought- and,
action, if iVasible, but certainly 'in
thought—that is the prime requisite
almost. the . definition,, of the type.
Your modern
. .Zint„rato - hates -shib
boleths and teats. He gives due- eb
servalice to all fair limits,. ethical,
political, or . social ; but he must have
his moral elbows' free.
,If . you bully
him or hamber him, threaten him
with the Inquisition in any form,
from 'Thrquernade to Mrs. Grundy,
be resents it. If he doilea't defy
you; he dodges you. When he faiDs
to do this he derogates from his
class.. ' It ' is. very hard to make a
snob,of him, for the liberty which is,
sweet to him Meat seem sweet to
others,- and I have found a pretty
liberal' charity one of his pleasantest
traits. Ile- sonietiines sits high in
places, but not often or for very long.
When he does, it is in virtue of some
exceptional good luck, or peculiar
available talent; for the word's lis:'
iness is worked largely by averages,
and a kindly - conformity is sweet to
the majority. So lie cheerfully ac
cepts purple and place when lie can
have his•own way, and get the-world
to agree with hire. It not, he as
cheerfully drops them, and-has his
own sway t3ill. You may occasional-
ly catch & first-rate specimen of-the
type in the "first circles" strong in
the confidence of-capitalists and pol
iticians, hand-and-glove with queens
of society and doctors of divinity.
But these splendors are apt to cost
Loci much in n coin which he cannot'
pay ,:without an ugly wrench•to his
constitution ; so, in most eases; he
declines the payment and goes • with

ever, is not one of the bull-headed .

ver withal. Ready,. adroit, inquir

be to claim full standing with lit
