whom they found sick and in distress.
The woman has labored hard to make an
honest living, and succeeded in providing
for herself and children until sickness
Frustrated her. The need of the Home

v..,,..a.li seems TO have muzzled or
scared the other papers of this city, and
they are as mum as though there was no
city election, with the exception of the
evening democratic organ, which has
Topped about from a bitter opposition to
Vaughan to a complete acquiescence.
There seems to be a general feeling that

in meeting on any side. But the strict
