my pen in hand, the figures moving
with tardy pace at the beckon nt
brain, hear right below my window,
in the adjacent field. the munotonous
ring of the luborer's hoe upon the corn
hills. While he hoes, hc whistles
hour by hour till the clock strikes
twelve, and then with ravenous
appetite repairs TO his bounlifnl yet
simple meal, only TO resume his task
again aud pursue it to the setting OF
the sun. As | stood ut the window
watching his toll, and turned again TO
my pen and paper, asked myself
how il happened that the man with
his hoe will labor lis eight or ten
hours day with less fatigue than the
man with his pen will toll his three

you know, he shot himself in fit OF

cncc between the great gcologist and
the man with lhc hoe whistling under
my window! Simply this, the former
was q worker OF brain, and the latter
u worker Of muscle. Let this man
with the hoe lay down his husbandry
for little willie and set himself to
studying uue OF the stalks of corn, or
the chemistry Of one OF those hills OF
soil, and very likely he would soon
learn what il is TO losc ones appetite,
and hear the clock strike nearly all
the night hours in feverish wakcful.
