ALTQQLTltER TOO MODEST.
To Me Editor Of 1te Chicago TRIBUNE:
Sin: For ono reason I a1n pleased TINT the
cold weather 10 again near ut hand. for ahall
hoon DO enabled to on.or my residence without
being stared out Of countenance by sidewalk and
piazza loungoss.
In our opinion, man must hayo Il wonderful
amount of aasu1nncs to parade his whole family
every cvonlng out on Lis front etcps 10 as to
keep strict watch OH his neigAbor's residence.
In Now York City VIC have heard Of thoir hav-
ing sueA things on !" "by-strocts and Ia front Of
larga toncment-houses," but wo haye mover
viHtcd those localities. All respectable families
usun!ly hayo opcn courts, nicely adorned with
hhrubbery, in tho tonr Of their dwellings,. fur
lounging ind smoking purposes, and tloy do not
place their wiyos and daughters in tho front Of
'tl.c ;houao. to DO gaAed at BY every toa'er o.
Or Or, bo passing by. C(licag" may bo "a1l right !"
in many roapoots, but III this matter NO inuss
eay we think sho is vastly behind tho times. mud
very imprudent. n. 3.
