Hard Times,

Farmers will see the end of hard
times when they raise their own food
supplies, when their principal crops
are not mortgaged for advances,
when they can pay cash on the spot
or 60 without, when their corn cribs
are full and their smoke houses are
not empty. This may compel them
to wear old clothes and ride in the
old carriage for time. They may
be obliged to head their labor gang
instead of playing the gentleman or
overseer. They must not look
upon manual labor as degrading or
be ashamed to harden their hands
by honest toll. This condition Of
things will soon become general all
over the country. The Southern
farmer has it in his power to make
himself the most independent of
men without the aid of banks,
brokers or spectators. He pro
duces: they exchange. His crops
are so much added to the tangible
wealth of the world; their manipu-
lations simply effect 4 change OF
worship. Without the farmers
crops mercantile and other indus
tries would soon decay and cease to
exist. Let the farmer then endeav-
or to keep himself free from all
question bic combinations; let him
be independent in the production
and unrestricted in the disposal Of
the proceeds of his labor and hard
times will surely come to an end

Power Of a Sweet Voice.

There is no power of love so
hard to get and keep as a kind
voice. A kind hand is deaf and
dumb. 1t may be rough in flesh
and blood, yet do the work of soft
heart, and do it with soft touch.
But there is no one thing that
love so much needs as a sweet voice
To tell what il means and feels; and
1t is hard to get and keep it in the
right tone. One must start in youth,
and be on the watch, night and day,
at work and play, to get and keep a
voice that shall speak at all times
the thoughts Of kind heart. But
this is the time when sharp voice
is most apt to be got. You often
hear boys and girls say words at
play with quick, sharp tone, as il
it were the snap OF whip. When
one of them gets veXed you will hear
a voice that sounds as if it was made
up OF snar!, u whine and bark.
Such a voice often speaks worse
than the heart feels. 1t shows
more ILL., will in the tone than in the
words. 1t is often in mirth that
one gets a voice or a tone that is
sharp, and sticks to him through
life, and stirs up ill will and grief,
and falls like a drop of gall on the
sweet joys at home. Such as these
get a sharp home voice for use, and
keep their hest voice for those they
meet elsewhere just as they would
save their best cakes and pies for
guests, and all their sour food for
their own board. ] would say to
all boys and girls: use your
guest voice at home. Watch it day
by day as pearl of great price, for
it will be worth more to you in days
to come than the best pearl hid in
the sea. A kind voice is a Joy like
lark's song to a hearth and home.
1t is to the heart what light Is to
the eye. 1t is light that sings as
well as shines. Train it to sweet
tones now, and it will keep in tune
through life "
