@~ "Come boys" must be the motto Of the
farmer who emp ploys much labor. He must
be with his men. But, unless he is remark
ably vigorous and healthy man, he ought not
to try to do as much work as his men and su-
perintend his farm besides. Work occasion
ally, aud put new vigor into the men. Show
them how to do the work to the best advan.
tage. Plan, direct, be quick to see the weak
spot and prompt to lend helping hand.
Steady work, like blowing, will almost do it.
self. 1t is the odd jobs that require brains:
You must do the thinking. A good boy will
often do as much work as man. But you
must know how to treat him in order to make
him useful. Give him the best tools, the best
plow, the steadiest team, and the newest har-
ness. If he breaks anything, do not scold,
but help him to repair damages and encour-
age him to do better. Above all do not let
the meu impose on him. If you breakfast
early, growing boy that is at work in the
field should have lunch at half.past eight or
ten o'clock. No one can work long without
eating, especially growing boy.
How TO SuccEED.-If your seat is too
hard to sit upon, stand up. If rock rises
up before you, roll it away or climb over it.
If you want money, earn it. If you wish for
confidence, prove yourself worthy of it. 1t
takes longer to skin an elephant than it does
mouse, but the skin is worth something.
Do not be content with doing what another
has done-surpass it. Deserve success, and
it will come The boy was not born a man.
The sun does not rise like rocket, or 60
down like bullet fired from gun; slowly
but surely it makes its round, and never tires.
1t is as easy to be leader as wheel horse.
If the job be long, the pay will be greater;
if the task be hard, the more competent you
must be to do it.
A JEWISH SHEKEL.-We were shown yes
terday, by Mr.. A. Wronski, Of this city, a
curiosity in the shape Of silver coin. 1t is
what is known as a Jewish shekel, issued
about 1000 years ago, in the time Of King
Solomon, and is near the size of what was
known here in the good old ante'bellum times
