AGRICULTURAL,
Profitable Farming.

There are too many men who put
thelr all into a single venture, and if
that fail are utterly used up. There is
perhaps no business wherein "two
strings to ones bow" are so important
as In farming. Other pursuits have
certain rules which have been founded
on experience, and which the shrewd
man OF business can take advantage of
with an almost assured certainty of
success But we can not do this. We
can not tell what viii happen to our
crops. Sometimes it Will be over-dry.
sometimes Over-wet sometimes we are
plagued with sTarms of insects at
other times we are afflicted with blights
and molds. Against none of these
things do we ever get the slightest hint.
But we have dwelt on this recently, in
speaking of the value of diversifvine
our products. Trouble never strikes
everything alike. Some will succeed.
But, independently of all this, the young
farmer should never be cast down by
misfortune. 1t is here where SO many
1all. We knew one, once, who had
made by city work some IS, 900. He
had originally been brought up on a
farm, and had always made up his mind to
return to it as soon as he had accumula-
ted enough to warrant him in making q
start. But he put away two thousand
dollars, and invested only six in the
farm and stock. It so happened that
the next two years found HIM in terri
BILE losses; but they brought expert
ence, and he fell back on his small re-
serve, and this, with his new experience
gave him a new and good start. 1t is
not so long ago, but he now considers
himself worth about twenty-five thou
sand dollars, and is one of the. most ar
dent advocates of the proposition that
farming will y.-GermGnt0aOn TeLe-

The Habit of Rea ding

81 have no time to read, is the COM
mon complaint, and especially of women,
whose occupations are such as to prevent
continuous book perusal. They seem
to think, because they cannot devote as
much attention to books as they are COM
PEELED to devote to their avocatiOns, that
they cannot read anything. But this is
a great mistake. It isn't the books we
finish at sitting which always do us the
most good. Those we devour in the
odd moments, half a dozen pages at
time, often gives us more satisfaction,
and we are more thoroughly digested
than those we make a particular effort
to read. The men who have made their
mark in the world have generally been
the men who have in boyhOod formed
the habit of reading at every available
moment, whether for five minutes or five
/ hours.
It is the habit of reading rather than
/ the time at our command that helps us
on the road to learning. Many of the
most cultivated persons, whose names
have been famous as students, have
given only two or three hours a day to
their books. If we make use of spare
minutes in the midst of our work,
and read a little, if but a page or para
graph, we shall find our brains quick.
ened and our toll ightened by just GO
much increased satisfaction as the book
gives us. Nothing helps along the mo-
notonous daily round so much as fresl
and striking thoughts, to be considered
while our hands are busy. A new ides
from a new volume is like oil which re-
duces the friction of the machinery Of
life. What we remember from brie.
glimpses into books often serves as s
stimulus to action, and becomes one o.
the most precious deposits in the trea
sury of our recollection. All knowledge
is made up of small parts, which would
seem insignificant in themselves, but
which, taken together, are valuable wea
pOns for the mind and substantial armol
for the soul. Read anything continu
ousIy," says DIR. Johnson, land yor
will be learned" The odd minutes
which we are inclined to waste, if carful
Iy availed of for instruction, will, in the
long run, make golden hours and colder
days that we shall be ever thankful for

Wheat and Physical Vigor.

Nothing is more sure in the ehemis-
try of life than that great-eaters are
the great thinkers, or that the phospho-
rus which wheat contains, in the outer
kernel, Immediately beneath the husk.
is the feeder of brains, and the material
substance which provokes to thought,
study, reason, and all the forms of ner-
vOus energy. There are psychologists
who attribute the remarkable success OF
states like Ohio, Indiana and Illinois ia
the bounty and perfection of the wheat
crop, and the intellectual stimulus, OF
rather food, which it affords the brain.
Certainly no commonwealth in the
world has evinced higher sense of law
and order, or more rapid developed q
social system which has hardly an equal
in the world. The constitution of In
diana, for instance, the very center OF
the wheat zone, is beyond comparison
the best in the Union, and produces the
highest results in our civilization.
There is a southern wheat belt, which
includes Australia in part, south Africa,
New Zealand, and a part of South
America, where a civilization equal to
that of the central north of the United
States is growing up.
But the full value of wheat as civil
Ter will never be fully realized Until
wheat-meal takes the place of bolted
flour, and the people learn to make
bread without yeast or risings. Good
bread is emphaticaIly the "staff Of
life" but the commercial article is the
way to dyspepsia and premature death

THE FOUNDATION OF FRIENDSHIP
In the matter of friendship, I have OBJ
served that disappointment arises chief
~, not from liking our friends too well,
or thinking of them too highly, but
rather from an over estimate of their
liking for and opinion of us, and that
if we guard ourselves with sufficient
scrupulousness of care from error in
this direction, and can be content, and
even happy, to give more affection than
we receive-can make just comparison
of circumstances, and be severely accu-
rate in drawing differences, and never
let self-love blind our eyes-then I think
we may manage to get through life with
consistency and constancy, unembit
tered by that misanthrophy which
springs from revuIsion of feeling. The
moral is, that if we would build on {
sure foundation of friendship, we mus
We our friends for their sakes rathel
than for our Own.-CharLOtte BrOnte.

King OF the blood.

FOB DBOPsY.-Case.-I was attacked with
abdominal dropsy four years ago. I took
medicine from five different doctors I ap-
piled to the sixth, but he declined attempting
nv case, saving he thought me past remedy.
Another thought he might help me If I would
be tapped but was so weak I thought I could
not bear it. I then saw your King of the
Blood advertised. Ny son said he would send
to you fer it, and did When I began to
take it I could not lie down or sit up straight
by wearing bandage l was able to walk lit
tie. I had not put on nay stockings for some
months. Per-Ons who visited me thought 1
could not live any length of time. I very
soon felt that your medicine was helping me,
and by the time had used the second bottle
I could put on my stockings, and began to feel
comfortable. In two months the water was all
gone, and 1 was a living skeleton; but my
appetite was good, and began to gain flesh,
and now look as well as ever did and feel
quite well. SARAH PENTz,

The experiment of planting pine seed
on the waste lands of Estham, Mass, is
reported to be a complete success. A
thousand acres of land are now covered
with thrifty pines from seed sown. The
land thus covered, but for this protec-
ton, would have been waste tract of
shifting sand. As a consequence, too,
game has been increased, and quail,
plover and other birds are plentiful
while foxes are by no means scarce.

Duty DoNE.-It has come to pass,
and rightly too, that public opinion
considers The duty of no man with a
family really done before he has insured
his life for it's protection. Life insur-
ance meets a public want as universal
and exacting as that which is met by fire
insurance. The demand, too, is for low
rates, financial strength, liberal policies
and prudent management, and we be-
lieve that on the whole list of companies
in the field, there is none which Z erhaps
so fully comes up to all these require
ments as the National Life Insurance
Company of the United States of Ameri-
ca, headquarters at Philadelphia, E. A.
Rollins, president, Jay Cook, chairman
finance committee. This company wants
an agent everywhere, and our advice is,
write it.
