HARD TINES FOR FARMERs.-A farmer in
debt always will have hard times, such as
those who own land and have comfortable
home, free from all encumbrance, cannot fully
comprehend. Mr.. BeechCr, who knows the
cost of farming, perhaps, better than its prof
its, says candidIy:
mo blister draws sharper than interest does.
OF all industries, none is comparable to that Of
interest 1t works all day aud night, in fair
weather and foul 1t has no sound in its
footsteps, but travels fast. 1t guaws at a mans
substance with invisible teeth. Itbinds indus.
try with its film as ay is bound in spiders
web.
Debts roll man over and over, binding
him hand aud foot, and letting him hang upon
the fatal mesh until the loug.legged interest
devOurs him. There is but one thing on a
farm like it, aud that is the Canada thistle,
which swarms new plants every time you break
its roots, whose blossoms are prolific. and every
flower the father of million seeds, every leaf
is an awl, every branch spear, and every
plant like platoon of bayonets, and a Geld of
them like an armed host. The whole plant is
torment aud vegetable curse. And yet far.
mer had better make his bed of Canada thistle
than attempt to be at case upon interest"

beautifully said:
"Mo.t of us remember the days which are

rings. 10 later life these spar kIiug ponts OF
time become effulyent days; rising like suns
flushing the household sky with genial tones;
warming its gray with color To unnumbered
millions Christmas has been such a day, TO
sad hearts it has brought gladness. 1t has
stood like rock by the sea. The dark waves
couc moaning against it, to be caught and
tossed into silver spray and dash Of raiubows
Though the drops fall back again and are lost
in the joyous ocean, though Christmas laughter
settles 500" into the noa" OF care the uex'
