an enlargement of his work. Not hav-
ing the means at hand to purchase
larger premises, he moved them to ms
old home at Luray, Virginia, and locat-
ed them on a farm which he purchased
within a mile of the town. The rail-
road and turnpike run through the
farm, the water is abundant, and the
fine mountain air and charming seen
cry made it peculiarly fitted for the
enterprise. 1t is about six hours from
Baltimore and five from Washington.

Of one large building he adopted the

eral meeting-place for meals, school
and worship. Boys and girls are taken
between the ages of 2 and 10 as a rule,
but the rule is often relaxed.
For several years there has been an
average Of a new cottage a year until
there are now eight in all. There are
always enough applications on hand to
fill a new cottage. The farm and cot

are under the control of a s%uperinten-
dent and his wife, and are managed
with care and judgment. 1t is sup

tons. Bands of young women are
formed to send regular contributions

RARE FAMILY REUNION.
Meeting of Nine Children Whose Com
bined Ages Were sos Years,

From the Toronto Globe: A family
reunion quite beyond the ordinary was
the leading event in the village Of Wit
toria, Norfolk county, on May % last.
1t took place at the old Hewitt home
stead. Nine brothers and sisters out
of a family of eleven met together.
The sixtieth birthday of the youngest
of the party occurred on June 2. Their
united ages amounted to 598 years.
William Hewitt, the father, was the d.
vision court clerk of Norfolk for forty
nine years. He passed away in his
ninetieth ear. The mother died in
her seventy-eighth year. rhe grand
parents were 106 and 104 years old at
their death. With four sons these last
arrived in Little York in 1926, where
they lived for some years. They re.
moved to Norfolk about 1886. The
names of the nine are as follows: Will.

Clarke leaned as far back as possible

name, yet ladies who bent down over

was a string that held suspended upon
her bosom the photograph of a young
woman holding a babe in her arms.
TO the photograph a note was written
in the Polish language stating the
name of the child, whittier bound, and
asking strangers to show her along her
way. The child had come all the way
