paA Poverty is the great nrodno

aA- Poverty IS the great producer
of thought. Nearly all the greatest
literary productions that now adorn
our shelves as classics, in whose pa
ges lie the great thoughts of their gen.
GRAFTON, are the life-blood of Poverty.
They were written with bailiffs at
the desk and constables at the door.
The cradles ofthe great are rocked in
cottages, and Genius tends her fos-
terlings amidst the routine of daily
toll, And 1t is because of this be-
cause our literature nestles in no por-
geous palaces, but comes from the
hearts of those who live real lives,
and who know life's trials. that il.
more includes the wide range of hu-
man emotions and sentiments. and
speaks to the heart with a force
that no other language and no other
literature ever possessed.

One Week from My Diaree.

TUESDAY with splendid
hedake, caused by drinking 2 much
spring water the evening previously,
and going to bed at . o'clock precise
ly. Breakfasted on the butt end nv
a sassidge, and felt like dorg.
WEDNEsDAy-Re kolekted being in
M Hamshire during a severe sno
storm and innocently enntf remark
that | never see ennything like it,
and was told by one ov the barroom
boarders that it warn't nothing he
bad seen il fall over Il thousand feet.
"What ?" said |, ga thousand feet on
the level ?" NO" said he, "but
thousand feet On high" reflected
how easy it was for some folks to lie
and tell the truth at the same time.

s9-The successful management of
farm, especially in this age of pro-
gress, requires thought no less than
hard work. Something more needs
to be done than scatter the seed and
reap the harvest. What to plant in
order to be tolerably certain to OBJ
tain a good price for the product in
what soil, as TO quality and rotation
OF crops and just when to cultivate,
and with what implements, to secure
the best results-all these things
need TO be considered. The compar-
alive leisure of winter il the best
time to think of these questions
Now is the time to lay out the spring
campaign, and be preparing the
means of prosecuting it vigorously.

FRUITS AS ANTI-DYspEpTICs.-It is
often remarked that apples eaten raw
are the best anti-dyspeptics to be
found. Then is it not astonishing
thing that with all the apples and
other fruits with which America
abounds, we are almost q nation Of
dyspeptics. But if we consider how
nine tenths of the apples are eaten
we will cease to be astonished.
Who ever thinks of putting q dish
of apples on the table as a part of a
meal, though the cellar may be full
of rich mellow fruit ? Sometimes
they may be brought on with the
desert, but even that is seldom
They are sometimes eaten directly
afterward, while the stomach is al
ready burdened, or between meals,
when it needs time to clear itself and
have rest, then fruit is oftener a
curse than blessing. The health of
the nation will never be improved by
the use of fruits till we learn to eat
them as part of our meals.
