Changed Farm Life.

The dull silence that hung over that
New England dinner table has been
lifted Of late. It is gone like the
dew in the sunlight Of the new social
influences. The isolation Of the farm
was the chilling cause that drove men
into the cities. Now, by telephone and
free mail delivery. all the warm
world currents are being carried to
the country and are vitalizing the ru-
raj community into life that is rich
and abundant In the variety OF its in
terests. A real heart hunger has
been answered. Over hill and down
dale flashes the impulse that electri-
fies existence with the thrill of human
life touching other human life.-De-
lineator.

which expressed on June /, before
leaving the United States, have un-
ldereone no change
Harrimaps statement Of June 1,
was to the effect that the business
of the country was on very sub
| stantial basis; that the large crops in
prospect should bring happy times;
idle money should be properly em-
ployed in upbuilding real undertake
ings and not in the development of
false projects; that there was no ex-
cuse for the panic of 1907. which was
panic of sentiment only and that we
were on saner basis today.
