remarks are equally appropriate as regards

On Monday morning says the 1HscGrGcas
Advocate, Rev E. P Jacobs discovered a box
hanging on the inside Of his gate. 1t was
nailed together with care leaving vacancies
in the upper part for the admission OF air.
On opening it, it was found to contain female
infant Of about two weeks old, carefully packed
around with cotton batting, and rather well
dressed. Those who placed it there evidently
had something like mothers interest 10 her
child. as shown by the manner in which it was
"fxed," and also by the proximity in which
it was placed to comfortable quarters.
