The moment a man feels too sure of
a woman he ceases to make any effort

Have you ever seen a child turn
carelessly away from a box of sweets
from which it has helped itself freely
and which it knew was still at it's
command? That is exactly the way
men and women feel about the love
which comes so easily as to lose it's
value.

President Cleveland, though he had a
suburban home which he occupied be

annual migration TO cooler climcs when

why the presidents of former days did

Secretary Knox Of the state depart
ment has retired to the quiet of his mag.
nifcent country place at historic Valley
Forge. twenty miles out Of Philadelphia.
He is on the Main Line, as they say up
in Philadelphia, which means that he is
in the midst of the most highly devel-
oped stretch of country homes in Amer
lea. This stretch of Philadelphia sub.
urbs is one Of its best founded claims Of
distinction and redeems it from an
otherwise unattractivc commonplaceness.
For there is nothing else In America
like these country places and there IS
n doubt if anything in England equals
them They are, however, built upon
the English plan. Vast sums of the
wealth OF Pennsylvania have gone into
the improvement of these places.
