Those who have never owned a home of their own and have only planted flowers on rented sod, little dream of the pleasure that may yet be in store for them.

FRANCE WANTS
 OUR FRIENDSHIP Anxious to Take the Hand ot
 America. MUCH SYMPATHY FOR B0ERS One French Journal Severely Criticised the Hesitation of America in the Matter of Intervention-Should
 Take Some Action
MUCH SYMPATHY FOR B0ERS

Paris, March 4.-France beyond a doubt is sincerely anxious for the handgrip or friendship of the United States, and not only is this true of. the government, but of all reasonable French politicians as well. The presentation of the Lafayette dollar to President Loubet yesterday fur nished another unmistakable proof of the existence of this feeling.
 References to the event in the French - journals of all shades have been invariably of the most sympathetic character, and the ceremony itself is treated as If des- tined to prove another link in the history of friendship between the two nations. President Loubet himself, the correspond- ent of the American Press Association has been informed by one entitled to speak, is charmed with the whole affair, and the manner in which it was carried out. Prior to the ceremony he privately expressed these sentiments, and also his sense that the way the scheme had been taken up is an indication of the attitude of the great body of American opinion towards France.
 Another expression of feeling in the of- fic,al world has appeared in the govern ment's s mouthpece, which, after review ing the inception and execution of the idea, concluded by saying: "All these demon- strations form a veritible cult, consecrated by the Americans to the illustrious citizen who aided them to win their independence, which does the greatest honor to the people of the United States and deeply touches the French people. If there are in the world two peoples made to love and comprehend one another it is surely those of the two great est republics who exist on the face of the ylobe."
