AN ODD COMPLAINT,

1t requires patience, as we'll as patients, to
be a successful doctor. No class of the lat
ter tax the former more severely than ig-
norant old women. Half of their complaints
are moro fanciful than real and neither
can be cured except by seeming to humor
their whimsical, bugbear notions. Not long
since, a physician in the town of W,
Me, was sent for in great haste by an old
lady who dwelt two or three miles off. The
doctor drove rapidly to the house, putting
the spurs to his dark bay, till the sweat ran
from the animals sides in streams. When
asked what allied her, the old lady replied,
in a sad sepulchral tone, that she had no
feeling-no pain-no anything-but felt
kind of slarruppy-hke Ibid.

EVILS OF HAVING ONES LIFE
SAVED.

Moral writer's, from Solomon downwards,
have laid much stress on the danger of be-
ing under an obligation and their cautions
seem we'll founded. 1t is pleasant to have
good actions done us but not if we are to
be increasingly reminded Of them and the
gratitude we owe. A friend of ours was
saved from drowning by a person with whom
ne was slightly acquainted. OF course, he
thanked his deliverer profoundly. Ever
afterwards the philanthropic gent, stuck to
him like a burr. lie chung to him like the
Old Man of the Sea to Sinbad the Sailor
He logged and haunted him at every step,
constantly asking favors on the plea that he
had saved his life. Our friend bore this
with philosophic equanimity for a long while,
only now and then ~involuntarily cursing his
ill luck in being pulled out of the water
AT last, being asked one day for the FIVE
hundreth time. well, Jones, you'll stand
treat to day, I 'spose-saved your life, you
know |? our friend lost all patience, and in
a voice which made the fellows hair stick
up like the fretted %porcupine's, broke down
upon him as follows Yes. Sir, l wiH treat
this time, and the last, though l | have paid
that debt twice over, long ago. But Sir,
mark me if ever you catch me drowning

FARM JOURNALS.

Every farmer should keep a journal.
No matter whether he pursues the bust
ness on a large or small scale, he should
keep a regular diary of his proceedings
and experiments, All particulars relating
to the planting, management, and yield
of his crops, profit of stocks, &C., &C.,
should be regularly journalised and pre-
served tor future reference. A work of
this character, concentrating the expe-
rlence Of years, would be possessed of
almost inestimable value as a directory,
and would doubtlessly be perused by flu
ture generations with pleasure, and prob
ably with profit. l am personally acquain-
ted with several distinguished agricultu-
rists who have, for years, kept regular
journals of their proceedings, and who
assure me that the trouble of keeping a
regular and systematic diary, or, as it
may be more called, journal is nothing
in comparison With its advantage. Won
THAER, and other distinguished transat-
lantlc authors who have treated elabo-
rately on the science of agriculture, as
well as many eminent men in our own
country, have urged the importance, and
even the necessity of this practice, and
many OF them have published forms, and
given rules relative to the subject. The
better way, however, as | conceive, is
for every farmer to pursue his W plan
there is but little danger Of his failing to
comprehend the writing of his own hand
whereas the cramping of rules and reg
ulatlonS, might cause his interest to flag
and the work to stop, even al the com
mencement.-A PRACTICAL FARMER.

'Gainst sin he'll raise his shield,
