" This is a big boost for the lonely orphan child ; he can now start out "solitary and alone" and become a ' 'fashionable American family. ' ' THE ordinary American woman can form some idea of the social standing of her new neighbors when the furni ture wagons unload of course ; but she is never really certain about them until the * hired girl has hung out the first wash. . Miss CLEVELAND , it is said , is to retire from Literary Life. She should never have tried to edit. She cannot write. She is a school girl of mature year ? , and has lost by her presence be fore a larger public than a countryvil lage. Purify Your Blood.
