town, and it is stated that its population

know, Is the birthplace Of Hector Bruce,
the historian; Halliburton, who was the
first to openly profess the reformed re-
Iigion in Scotland, and Furgerson, the
poet. But if these WORTHLESS could come
back to earth they wouldn't own Dun

houses Of two rooms each, into which
are crowded a. 74 men. women and
children. II to these be added tie three
room houses, with the people living in
them, it shows that 118, 600 of the 40,

of one to three rooms. Poverty and
misery abound, and vet it is the princi-
pal seat of linen manufactures, and is M
important center for sugar refining,

wealthy citizens of Dundee that they
have spent and are spending millions Of
money in educational, charitable and
eIeemOsynary institutions, great parks
and magnificent churches.
