Farm Life.

A writer in Scribner's Monthly as
serts that the farmer, having the most
sane and natural occupation, ought 70
find life pleasant. He alone, strictly
speaking, has a home. How can man
take root and thrive without land :
He writes his history upon his field
How many ties how many resources he
has; his friendship with his cattle, his
team, his dos, tress; the satisfaction in
his growing crops, in his improving
fields his intimacy with Nature, with
birds aud beasts, and with the quicken
ing elemental forces; his corporations
with the clouds, sun, seasons, heat, wind
rain and frost. Nothing will take the
various social distempers which the city
and artificial life breed out of a man, like
farming-like direct and loving contact
with the soil. II draws out the poison.
1t hVmbles him, teaches him patience
and reverence, ard restores the proper
tone to his system. Cling to the farm,
make much of It, put yourself into Il.
bestow your heart and your brain upon
L, SO tina. il shall SAVIOR Of you and radi-
ate your virtue after your days work IS
done.

Most Rapid Travelling On Record!

a genuine Arkansian lives at Conway.
You couldn't induce him to make ms
statement. 1t is sad that if his life de-

the idea. During long Life he has
treasured up little bits of truth. One OF
these truths he keeps for Saturday pur-

party had gathered in front OF Il store,
the truthful man remarked:
"Well, boys, talking about rapid
