tian s%alutatiOn. All outside Siberian
winter, we must have it a princes
dollhouse. The only institution
on earth to-day that proposes to make
the world warmer. Universities and
observatories, they all have their work.
They propose to make the world light,
but they do not propose to malke the
world warm.
Notwithstanding all the modern in
ventions for heating, tell you there
is nothing SO full of geniality and So
ciality as the old-fashioned country
fireplace. The neighbors were to come
in for a winter evening of sociality. In
the middle of the afternoon, in the
best room in the house, some one
brought in a great backlog with great
strain and put it down on the back OF
the hearth. Then the lighter wood
vas put on, armful, after armful. Then
a shovelful of Goals was taken from an
other room and put under the dry pile,
and the kindling began, and the crack
ling, and 1t rose until it became a roar
ing flame, which filed all the room
with a geniality and was reflected from
h family pictures on the wall.
Then the neighbors came in two by
two. They sat down, their faces to the
fire, which ever and anon was stirred
with tongs and readjusted OF the and
irons, n there were such time of rus
tic repartee and story telling and
mirth as the black stove and the blind
register never dreamed of. Meanwhile
the table was being spread, and so fair
was the cloth and SO clean was the
cutlery, they glisten and glisten in our
mind to-day. And then the best lux
ury of orchard and farmyard was
roasted and prepared for the
table, to meet the appetites sharp
ened by the cold ride. OH my
friends, the church of Jesus Christ
is the worlds fireplace, and the woods
are the cedars of Lebanon, and the
Tres are fires of love, and with the
silver tongs of the altar we stir the
flame and the light is reflected from all
the family pictures Oh the wall-pic-
lures of those who were here and are
gone now. OH come up close to the
fireplace. Have your worn faces trans
figured in the light. Put you cold feet,
weary of the journey, close up to the
blessed con~fiagration. Chilled through
with trouble and disappointment,
come closer up until yon can get
warm clear through. Exchange eX-
periences, talk over the harvests gath
cred, tell all the gospel news. Mean
while the table is being spread. On it,
bread of life. On it, grape of Eschol.
On it, ley wine from the kingdom.
On it, a thousand Injuries celestial.
Hark! as a wounded hand raps on the
table, and a tender voice comes
through, saying: Come, for all things
are now ready. Eat, oh, friends!

WEALTH OF THE AsTORs.
True Amount Kept from the Public, But
Known to BE Almost Fabulous.

Known to BE Almost Fabulous.
The Astors are adding to their realty
holdings. Recently William Waldorf
Astor purchased an old church building
On Forty-siNth street. between Sixth
and Seventh venues New York, which
covers three city lots. Hy this purchase
the great estate gobLlcs the entire
block, with the exception of one lot.
As this BLOCK is one of the several Sc
lected for the metropolitan terminal
of the big North river bridge, which
will surely he completed within six or
seven years, the reasons for the pur-
chase are obvious. The Astors-Wil-
liam Waldorf and John Jacob-are I'M
doubtedIy the largest individual own
ers of real estate in Gotham. Like
The ounde Of their house, they have
always regarded city land as the best
and safest investment. Old John Jacob
first became a real estate owner in
1889, when he bought for $25 Il lot of
land on the Bowery, near Elizabeth
street. Twenty-one years later he was
the largest holder of real estate in
town, and his descendants nave ever
since kept the lead in this respect. In
1895 he sold the Astor house for 81.
William b. Astor had expressed a de
sire to own it, whereupon John Jacob
TOLD him that he would sell il to him
for the amount named. The bargain
was concluded on the spot. The great
est care has always been taken to keep
the exact value of the Astor estate from
becoming public. When John Jacob
Astor the first died he was said to be
worth $50, 100000. At William Il. As
tors death ii wa reputed that he was
worth $5O,0O0,0 00, but this estimate has
been declared too low. A few millions
could be added with safety at present,
and every hour increases the valuation.
Ever since 1911 the Astor family has
been putting it's spare change into Man
haitian Island real estate. Rents which
accrued were reinvested with a par
ticular view to the location of the
property. John Jacob and William
Waldorf have continued to make invest
ments in Harlem and the new annexed
district within a few years. They
keep a sharp eye on the trend of trade
and the growth of new districts. One
real estate authority, in speaking about
the Astor LAND holdings, said that
south of Eighty-siXth street it included
25 acres of soil solidly built up. Yet
this large amount of property does not
amount to more han half of the Astor
estate, which owns land and buildings
around Jerome Park and along River
side drive AMI the boulevard. 1t is the
business custom of the Astors TO give
-leaseholds of 81 years, on which the
lessees build, the lease being subject
to renewal at the end of 21 years on "
reappraisement. The ground rents for
these properties go to the estate, but
on the assessment books the property
does not appear in the name of the
Astors. That's why their great wealth
is not getatable by those people who are
always poking their noses into the pri-
vate affairs of other people.-Pitts-
