ROMANTIC REUNIONS.
BROTHERS' ANNUAL DINNER There was a romantic reunion recently, says a London newspaper, when, for the 30th successi\o year, members of the Pinhorn family met to discuss old times. The brothers, seven in number, arrange to meet and dine together on the first Saturday in December to " swap yarns." They are the sons of the late Charles Pinhorn, secretary of the United Temperance Council. They have formed themselves into a Pinhorn Brothers' Association, to which malo members of the family are admitted on reaching the ago of 18. They have jokingly decided that no woman should bo allowed in the association, but have made an exception in the case of thoir sister.
"Wo began to have these reunions when children, as we had to meet to decide what we should buy as our joint present for our parents,' one of the brothers said' last month. " After wo had grown up and left homo wo kept on with the idea." . Among the toasts offered by tho brothers was " The Silent Toast" to the parents.
