from the close, oppressive atmosphere OF the
towns longed-for blessing. During the

rest when they may seek health and enjoyment in
the eay shades Of the country or In the cool breeze
OF some 1avore seaside nook. Fortunately all
providing nature has given TO the Gothamltes iacil
ties OF escape from the eternal whsh glare OF street
and avenue where they swelter and smother during
the long laborious week, far from the

comes the IRON bonds that have kept the population
cooped up are loosed aud out rush the people IN
merry bands-"a jolly companie'-to Gull flowers
and roll in sheer wantonness of spirit among the
fragrant, new-mown hay, or TO saunter along the
beach OF some iavorite resort, listening to
TIE MoURNFUL MUSIC OF THE SEA

which the visitors bring down and cast away on the
lonely shore IN the hope that It may never return.
