BREAKING UP OLD HoMEsTEADs.-lt is
common saying that the members of the same
family should often separate that they may the
better love each other when they come togeth-
er. Now to US this seams one of those modern
doctrines born of the restlessncss and ulqulet
Of tbs times. Iu ''oli times people did not
need to take long journeys to keep their love;
fresh and green. Fathers and mothers lived
together for long years without desiring to leave
each other; brothers and sisters dreaded moth
inc so much as breaking up the old homestead.
NJ. if there is not that true love 10 the heart
which can forgive and excuse little detects OF
character 10 those We love, it will never be
epsrafted by frequent separations.
