ACK in a town in New England, 
Down in a village by the sea, 
There’s where my memory lingers still, 
Where the wild winds whistle free. 
There where the fog-horn is booming, 
And the sea-gulls shriek at the storm: 
There in a town in New England, 
In the village where I was born. 
There in this town in New England, 
Down in this village by the sea, 
Are skies, none more blue in this whole 
wide world 
Than form its canopy ; 
The pine trees that grow to the water’s edge 
Are sentinels watching for the morn,— 
There in this town in New England, 
In the village where I was born. 
There in this town in New England, 
Down in this village by the sea, 
I often used to stand on the rocks in the fog 
And watch the sea mist flee, 
While the breakers boomed into surf on 
the shore, 
And the light-house loomed forlorn,— 
There in this town in New England, 
In the village where I was born. 
There in this town in New England, 
Down in this village by the sea, 
The yellow stands were singing at Nature’s 
first command, 
Still are and always will be; 
While the Indian and paleface in turn have 
roamed the shore,— 
Watching for the new day to dawn, 
3ack in this town in New England, 
In the village where I was born.

Indianapolis, Ind. ; 
HIS summer the North Shore colony will have an at- 
tractive new shopping place in the building now being 
erected at Magnolia for the E. T. Slattery Company. 
The store will be on one of the most important corners, 
Lexington and Hesperus avenues, opposite the Oceanside 
Hotel, the centre of the North Shore ‘shopping district.” 
The building is designed to fit harmoniously into its sur- 
roundings, with an artistic exterior and the latest equip- 
ment. ‘he architectural plan is Colonial, the severity of 
the lines being softened by a touch of the French, which 
will give a pleasing effect. It is the principal unit for 
a block of stores to be completed later. Andrew D. 
Fuller is the architect and it is his intention to make the 
building an adornment to the locality. 
The interior appointments are being prepared under 
the personal supervision of P. A. O’Connell, president of 
the Slattery Company. They will be in the French gray 
tones of the best effects of the Louis Seize period, which 
is the motif favored by some of the most exclusive Par- 
isian shops. Every modern convenience and comfort 
will be provided for patrons. In the upper part of the 
building, accommodations for those in charge of the busi- 
ness are equally complete, even to a large veranda in the 
rear, overlooking the harbor. 
One feature is a raised promenade along the window 
fronts, a few steps above the public sidewalk. There 
will be other decorative surroundings of trees and shrubs, 
July 1 is set as the opening date,
