New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1880-04-14
TO.MOrrOW.

IL will pillow my field Tomorrow =
said Jeannot; II must not lose any
time as the season is advancing, and II
l neglect to cultivate my field will
have no wheat. and as q consequence,
no bread
Tomorrow arrived. Jeannot was up
by daylight and was about going out to
get his pillow, when one of his friends
came to invite him to family festival.
Jeannot hesitated at first, but on re-
fleeing little he said: "A day sooner
or later makes no difference for nv
business, while a day of pleasure once
lost is always lost" He went to the
festival of his friend.
The next day he was obliged to rest
himself, because he had eaten little
too much, and had headache. s.To-
morrow will make up for this" said
he to himself. -.
Tomorrow came; it rained. jean
not, to his great grief, was unable to go
out all day:
The following day it was fine, and
Jeannot felt himself full of courage,
but, unfortunately, his horse was sick in
turn. Jeannot cursed the poor beast.
The following day was a holiday, and
he could not, of course, work. A new
week commenced, and in week a great
deal of work may be done.
He began by going to fair in the
he had never failed to
attend it; it was the finest fair held
within ten miles,. He went afterward
to the christening of child of one of
his nearest relations, and afterward to
burial, in short he had so many things
to occupy him, that when he began to
pillow his field the season of sowing was
past; thus he had nothing to reap.
When you have anything to do, do it
at once; for if you are master of the
present, you are not 50 of the future,
and he who always puts off his business
till tomorrow runs great risk of nev-
er being able to finish anything. From
the French of r. Blanchard.

counterparts Of each other, and hence
heavenly favor often depends on the
conformation Of the earth's surface.
The outline Of a hill, for instance, is
fancied to resemble a dragon or q tor
taoise, and, therefore, the immediate.
neighborhood is lucky, good or llsluck
often arising from some supernatural
cause, through the medium of some
{ conspicuous objects. Two exactly oppo-
site doors or straight walls are supposed
to induce baleful influences. Is tall
house, 4 steeple, q railway, may be sup
posed to interrupt the transition Of
spirit Influences; hence, all in that
vicinity is unlucky. That preference
which persons sometimes have for a
given locality, position, person, or
thing, without the consciousness of any
reason for such preference other than
it is their pleasure to entertain it, is an
illustration of what Chinaman would
call Fung-Shui. Most people, even in
more civilized countries, have their.
Fung- Shuts; they smile at them, bat act
as though they believed in them. pro-
fvied no expenditure of money is there
by called for. Some of the Chinese
servants smile at theirs, but always at
tend to them even at the cost of money.
