to interest. Notwithstanding the fact
that Mrs. Eddy discovered the pr;n-

We quote from the March Nc

"Her one thought was 'fight'-to

She talked of going to Cincinnati or

was anxious to get away from Bos-

that if our town had 10000 popula-
ton instead of 1000 it would be bet

ket, would not the small homes with
one lot be doubled in value and every
