to the city after prolonged absence, which
has been spent mainly in Colorado and Cali

loose from the many and numerous inter-
ests which have absorbed much of his
time and energy and has enjoyed the first
real holiday that he has allowed himself
for years. The result is that he feels better.

to be and does not intend to retard his
progress by too close an application to bust
ness. His many friends were delighted 10

countered them on the streets he has been
given a sort of informal reception. Mr..
Johnson found that his business interests
had been well looked after while he was
away and he is gratified by the warmth

he has received since his return.
