They were to receive $45,000 for it, a good price, but when they came to think of leaving the old house in which they were born and reared they grew so homesick that they paid the purchaser a big bonus to abandon his barga.n. A family in Ocean Grove sold their cottage; but when they thought of the good times and pleasant associations they had eyjed they became homesick and bought the 'operty back for $100 more than they had received for it In Elizabeth, a few years ago, a gen tleman sold an historic old residence in which he had been living, and was ittacked with the premon tory phase af the disease. He offered to buy the place back at a big advance, but the new owner would not sell. There are many similar cases. Peo ple tret tired of their home, think they must sell make their bargain and then find that their hearts are ;nder the old rooftree and will ache sadly if obliged to leave. WILLIAM EVA.
