which beguile the leisure hours while gen.
tleman is revclling in the fragrant fumes OF

fine tobaccos with the equipments that
prepare one for the pursuit OF the fine
art Of engendcring dreams and apa-
thetc delights. SchGn is withal 4
minstering angel to gay and festive
c.'s when they are exhausted with "too
much" He has waters whose cooling and
sedative influences are blessings to aching
heads and agitated nerves. Certainly
SchGn is humanitarian. His blessings
are none OF the worst although so many OF

youth from things less agreeable and far
more hurtful to the boys.
