along with pictures illustrating his
life and works. Then the famous
places of the country were reviewed
with a history of all that made these
places famous.
From the older citizens o. the city
we find that in the days just prior to
the war this magazine was the hreslde
companion in every family and that
through it many of the citizens of the
country learned their bit of contem-
porarv history. The authors OF the
country were reviewed and interesting
bits of their history were told.
This magazine was a treasure box
and the people were eager for ITS
weekly advent and its object was to
keep the American home in happiness
once that home had been founded ac-
cording to advice set forth in the col
umns of the magazine. This advice
was. "Six things are requisite to
create a happy home Integrity must
be the architect, and tidiness the up
holsterer. 1t must be warmed by al
lection, and lighted up with cheerful
ness. and industry must be the venti-
lator, renewing the atmosphere and
bringing in fresh salubrity day by
day; while over all, as a protecting
glory and canopy, nothing will suf-
fee except the blessing of God"

volume will find it among the Ga
zette's files.
