How many tedious takers one is
forced to tolerate in the highways
and byways ofsociety! They com

change it for another, and consume
so much precious time that, the
listener becoming impatient, what
they say is deemed small compen-

rounded by bright spirits, all Of
whom have something to say well
worth the hearing, it is insutferably
annoying to be obliged to sit out

listen to lOng.drawn sentences, the

Repair Shop Oil the Farm.

Every farmer who has any me
cllan!cal genius should nave soma
place where in rough or stormy
weather he can 60 in aud make
such repairs on his farm implements
as his knowledge of mechanics will
enable hin to do well. Ii the farm
be large and the farmer SkilTul, ii
pays to have Il small building by
itself, where not only carpenters
tools are to be found, but also d
bIacksmith's forge, with II few OF
the most important tools. The firm
er who can turn his hand so as to
use successfully both the c;trpen-
ter's plane and the blacksmith's
hammer, is truly fortunate, because
it enables him to not only mend his
farm implements during leisure
hours in the winter, but it also en-
ables him to repair ii sudden break
down III the busy season, much
quicker than he usually could if he
had to depend OIL others living at
distance. 1t is not, however, good
policy for the farmerto turn his ut
tenton so much to mechanics as tC
neglect his farm, there is a point
beyond which it is neither profit
able or good policy to go.
Farming should be the principal
business OF the farmers life; to this
occupation he should give his prin.
cipal and his best thoughts; what
ever other business he may engage
in, he should treat as Il side buSi
ness, and never let it interfere it'll
his principal business. He who
let's the weeds grow while he is
building a wagon, had better be
without IL repair shop, but he who
only spends his leisure hours in re
pairing farm implements, will find
his repair shop among his best in
vestments.
On Il farm where there is a fam.
lily of boys the repair shop is a
necessity, if the boys are to receive
thorough instruction, and the farm
is to be made attractive. Tile boy
who is able to make his own sled
feels an independence which is I'M
known to the boy who has never
had an opportunity to become ac
quainted with the use of tools, and
when lie las a farm Of his own the
practice which the repair shop gave
him, will enable him to readily
make most of the repairs OH the
farm, and if he has leisure, make
many new improvements. A re
pair shop should always be build
ing by itself, because if in connec-
tion with others, it increases the
risk of fire, and makes the rate Of
insurance very much higher.

The Worlds Money.

A statement just made by the
Director Of the Mint, Says Wash
ington dispatch, gives some inter
esting facts about the money circu-
latlon of the world. But one coun-
try in the world bias as much circn-
lation as this, and the average
amount per head OF population in
this country is nearly two and a
half times rs great as throughout
the civilized world generally. III
other words, the amount Of paper
and metallic circulating medium in
this country is Sl,745,OOO, 900, or
more than double the amount in
Great Britain and Ireland, though
not quite so much as France has,
the total there beng $1,000, 100000.
France has certainly d wonder
full ability to make MOI ey and keep
it at home. Not, only fias she paid
her immense war Indemnity within
the past few years, but she has now
Il greater amount Of money in cir
cnlation than any other country in
the world and a larger sum per
head of population. Tie average
amount Of money IN active circula-
ton per head in France is 1920,
while in the United States it is but
s24.16 per head. Yet as this is
nearly two and Il half times the av-
erage total for the civilized world,
it ought 10 be quite satisfactory
The average Of the world is about
$40 per head OF population. This
