1t is sorry day for map-and more so for
a family, when he is obliged to give up his
home and go drifting again over the world.
No experience like this shocks the sensitive
heart. All gone-al deserted The lights
shining no more in the window. The Camil-
lar faces pressed no longer against the pains.
The fire gone out. The smoke no more cnrl-
ing from the chmneys. The dear voice will
not be heard there again, though the men
pass and repass the house daily. All, there is
needed no desolati0n OF sort like this
He must be a hard aud undeveloped nature

deepest, emotion. To lose ones home is 10
