There is hardly better society than may be
found in those New England homes, and no.
where else are the Christian virtues of life
brought to a better development. There is
some pride OF family, Il sense of having had
Il grandfather, but there is, withal, SO wide a
sympathy, so much Of that kindly feeling
towards your ncighbors that comes from hay

them from your childhood, that the idea of

interfere with the sweet charities Of daily

CHICAGO, August G.-The members Of

since their presence was discovered by the
reporters. O'DOnnavan Rosa is said 10 be

operated IN Paris and other European cities,
