Longing FOR Coun>r, In.

A strange thing is the universal
onging OF professional men end others
who have come to the city and have
prospered as they advance In life to
get back to the country. 1t is seldom
that they DO 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, bat he thinks 1t is In the country.
Nevertheless, the desire to get back
to the old country place to end ones
days is very general Sir Walter Scott
