we have . return of times when only
good farming can succeed. But the
Misrepresentation which so widely pre-
walls, that the losses of our present
farming should or can be remedied by
savings, is working incalculable mis-
chief. The present year, with our cur
rency down to hard-pan, offers better
opportunities for moderate profits as
the result of well-dirccted efforts than
we have seen in years before. The
speculative prices which prevailed in
war times must not be expected, but
farmers who have land in good condi-
ton for cropping will make serious
mistake if they do not invest the labor
necessary to secure crop. 1t will
probably cost less 10 produce anything
now than in any previous year since
the war, and the prices of farm prod
ucts are likely to be higher rather than
lower. Rural NeU Yorker.

EUROPEAN as well as Monaghan inn
migrants are willing to work hard.
An illustration of this is given in q
Swede who recently found work at q
Norwalk Conn., foundry. Beginning
at four o'clock in the morning, he
keeps busy until seven at night, not
even stopping for his meals. When
he goes to his work in the morning he
carries with him q pail containing
soup and black bread. The pail he
places on q shelf over his bench, and
when hungry he grasps the pail in his
teeth, and throwing his head bsck,
drinks the soup. While he is drink
ing his fingers are busy packing tho
sand into the mold, and when he stops
for bite of black bread it is but for
an instant. His days work Is always
two hundred molds, while one hundred
and twenty molds is considered . good
days work for . firstrclass workman.
This man seems to have no interest in
anything but his work, makes no un-
necessary acquaintance, and discour-
ages all Of his companions who show .
willingness to associate with him.

Y ULM, MINI, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER Is, 1879

Twas fifteen years old last August, and
am worth to-day 1890. To be sure, my
father has favored me in every way,
furnishing me with seed, feed for my
stock. allowing me the use Of his team
and farming implements, ETC., etc.
But now can afford to be more inde-
pendent, and hope before long to help
him, instead Of his helping me. Father
is making money, too. This is fine
wheat country, and he has put the
most of his land into wheat. We have
had fine seasons 50 far for our crops,
and next year we may have grasshor-
pers, or drought, or some drawback;
but we have enough ahead now to
stand one or two Improbable seasons;
so we don't worry. l intend to invest
every year in stock, as have found it
far more profitable than anything else.
But don't you think that fathers
method of encouraging one to be in
dustrious is far better than Mr.. AS?
Mr.. A. is just as able to do this for his
boys as my father is to do it for me,
only they are of different dispositions,
you see. Now, there is your road; you
keep straight ahead till you come to q
red barn, when you tura to the left,
and two miles further on you reach
your friends house, white frame,
with porch in frcnt. Good morning.

The !. Separated Man.

ABOUT eight o'clock yesterday fore
noon man whose form was full Of
wrinkles and kinks and twists crawled
out of q coal shed on the wharf and be-
gan yawning and rubbing his eyes like
one who had put in a heavy night. A
policeman lounged that way, gave the
man looking over and asked:
Sleep in there last night?''
"Yaas, kinder" was tho reply.
Looking for work?''
N-n-o, not exactly
Youth be run in If you hang around
in this way" remarked the officer.
The man put his hands on top of a
snubbing post, laid his chin on his
hands. and after long look at Canada
he turned and said:
dunno exactly what Pm going to
do. did live out here about eight
miles. but I've separated from the old
woman. Yes, separated last night"
whats the trouble!''
WAL, she was my second and Twas
her second, and we never got along
any too sweet. We both of us think
we know it all, and neither feels like
giving in. We came in to see the cir
cus.''
"Ah! you dido"
''And that's where the separation
took place right in front of the sacred
hyenas from Japan. You know they
advertised an electric light there?"
"Yes.'
"Well, we'd never seen one. When
we got into the menagerie there stood
the elephants Then came the camels.
Then we came to darned old bear.
Further on were the lions and tigers
and monkeys, but no electric light. We
walked three times around that old
tent without coming to his cage, and I
got mad. Says to one of the chaps
over the rope: 'Wbar' in thunder is
the cage with tho electric light IMP We
want to see him or have our money
back! The Teller he grinned all over,
and lots of folks LATED right out, and
my wife she flew up and said I'd made
q fool of myself. sHow?' says /.
Why, the electric light is not an ami
NAL at all, says she, but it is some
thing to do with the clown We had
big jaw right there. She caved nv
hat in, and broke her parasol, and
then l separated"
tAnd you won't make up?''
snake up! Never! She can take
the electric light and bake and eat him,
but I'm man who never crawls! I'm
going down to Toledo, am, and by
this time to-morrer I'll be drunker'n 3
horse!'' ..
"And you didn't see the electric light
after allp''
"No! don't believe they had any!
Maybe they thought they could work
that ere rhinocer0s off on the public by
another name, but tumbled in min
it. I'm an old rhinos myself, and my
wife is another, and when think Of
how stood there and let her call me .

Matters Of Conscience.

The Rev. DR.. Macleod, father of DR..
Norman Macleod, passing through the
crowd gathered before the doors of a
new church he was about to open, was
stopped by an elderly man with "Doc-
tor, if you please, wish to speak to
you" Asked if he could not wait until
after worship, he replied that it was a
matter upon his conscience. ooh,
since it is matter of conscience, Dun
can," said the good-natured minister,
II will hear what it u.s." well, doctor"
said Duncan, "the matter is this. Ye
see the clock yonder on the new church.
Now, there is really no clock there, only
the face of one; there is no truth there,
only once in II hours; and in my mind
that is wrong, very wrong, and quite
against the conscience that there should
be lie on the face of the house of the
Lord" The doctor promised to con-
