A strange thing is the universal
longing of professional men and others
who have come to the city and have
prDspercd as they advance in life TO
set back 70 the country. 1t is seldom
that they do not return and when they
do there is often disappointment and
things do not appear as they did long
ago. The change is in the man him
self, but ne thinks it is in the coun-
try. Nevertheless. the desire to get
back to the old country place to end
ones days is very general. Sir Walter
Scott refers to it and compares the
course of man through the world to
that of the hare which is started from
her lair and after long chase and
making large circle ends by return
ing to the nest from which she started.
