i'll had Leisure.

s'sIf had leisure. I won Id repair that
weak place in my fence" said farmer
He had none. hOpever. and while drink
ing cider with neigbor the cows broke
i'm and injured prime piece of corn. He
had leisure thento repair his fence, but
it did not bring back his corn.
'lf l had leisure" said wheelwright
last winter, Il would have altered my
stove pipe, for. know it is not safe
But he did not find time, and when his
shop caught fire and burned down he
found time to build another.
IF / had leisure" said mechanic 81
shonld have my work done i'm season. y
The man thinks his time has been all oc-
cupied, but he was not at work till after
sunrise: he quit work at five O'Clock
smoked cigar after dinner, and spent
two hours on the street talking nonsense
with arfidier. p aE
IF L had leisure" said merchant,
II should pay more attention to my ac-
counts, and pay and collect my bills more
promptly" The chance is, my friend,
if you had leisure you would probably
pay less attention to the matter than you
do now. The thing lacking with hun
dreds of farmers who till the soil, is not
more leisure. but more resOlutiOn.-the
spirit to do; to do now. If the farmer
who sees his fence in a. poor condition
would only act at once, how much would
be saved! 1t would prevent breachy cat
tie creating quarrels among neighbOrs
that in many cases terminate in lawsuits,
which take nearly all they are both worth
TO pay for.
The fact is, farmers and mechanics
have more leisure than they are aware of
for study and improvement of their
minds. They have the long evenings of
winter in which they can post themselves
upon all, the xjmproysments ofthe day,
if they will take ably conducted Journals
and read them with care. The farmer
who fails to study his business, and gets
shaved, has nobody but himself to blame.
