THE OLD FAMILIES,

The Philadelphia Record deplores the
fact that most of ',the old families" of
THE Quaker CITY" are dying out One
cannot cast an eye over the list of Phil
adelIhia notab!lit!es two generations
backward into the years behind us, says
| the Record, without wondering what
has become of the progeny OF distinguish
ed ancestors.
| For some wise and inscru.able reasoS
there can be no Unbeatable monopoly oc
brains The Caesars do not always be-
get Caesars. and II appears according
TO our contemporary. that as the great
men pass away those whom they leave
behind too often inherit only their name
1t finds also that there IS less marrying
and giving in marrying than in years
gone by. and on this point says:
1T is fiat heresy to suggest shat the
Puritan or Quaker maidtus are any legs
| attractive to-day than they were in the
yesterdays of our beloved country: but
| 1t is saddenlng truth that there ~ less
marrying and giving in marriage than
| in the olden time. More sadden!ng still
| Is the fact that when The men and wom-
Ell OF this generation do marry Their are
fewer children. The rate of Increase OF
| population IN some of the older States
of the Union would not be greater shan
lit is in France. where the census shows
| standstill, but for the vrilIty and vigor
| of the foreigners who come among us
and who in some measure keep up the
| reputation of America as Il land where
children, corn and cotton flourish amaz-
ingly."
Now, If all these things be- true. and
they probably are. the City Of Brotherly
Love is in bad way. The Record
however, should take heart-,he coun-
try is full of brilliant young men and
women: all they need is a chance and
