writes Edward Everett Hale in Nc

haPs. The place was at first allied
fontoosoc, then WcndelItown, and
only aftcrward got the name of Pitts
field from William Pitt. One part of
the Wendell property descended to DR..
Holmes mother. When he had once
seen it he was struck with its beauty
and fitness for a country home, and
asked her that he might have it for his
own. 1t was there that he built
house in which he lived for eight or
nine years He said that the Housa-
tonic winds backwards and forwards
through it, SO that to go from one end
of his estate to the other in a straight

UNDIVIDED BLESSINGS.


\ The Wen-Dressed Youth and the Raegodv
4 wistfui-Eyed Newsboy.
! A lady accompanied by her son, =
lad OF about twelve. years, was riding
in a street car up town the other day.
The young gentleman had on what
was evidently his first suit of grown
up. clothes. His shirt, collar, tie
and scarf-pin were immaculate, His
derby hat was spick and span.
His suit was evidently made by
good tailor, and his faultless kid
| gloves were of the latest shade. He
was well pleased with himself, and his
mamma was well pleased with him,
avs the New York Times. AT Forty
second street a newsboy came on the
cars crying his evening papers. He
was rather more wretched looking
than the average newsboy. His attire
consisted solely of a very ragged shirt
and an equally ragged pair Of trousers,
which were held on by a strip of dirty
cotton cloth which served for sus-
pender lie was hatless and shoeless.
The most remarkable thing about this
newsboy was that his face and hands
were clean. The boy in the good
clothes bought a paper. He immedi-
ately began to read it as the men do.
while he absently held out his gloved
hand for the change. While the news
boy counted the pennies into the palm
of the new kid glove he looked his GUS
toner over, not CONTEMPORARY, as,
one might imagine, but rather visit
fully. Then he walked slowly out of
the car looking back over his shoulder
at the well dressed boy. A change of
horses was being made, and the news
boy stopped outside of the window
with his papers under his arm and his
hands in his pockets, still looking at
the boy in the derby hat. The wistful
expression deepened and grew One
could read upon his face what he was
thinking, and gentleman who had
watched the little incident said with
sigh as the car started on. Things
don't seem to be very well evened up
n this world, and everybody seemed

till looking at his paper, and his
mother, who was fondly gazing at him.
