President and his party in their visit to

Boston Traveller: A correspondent
of the Woman's Journal asks if it
pays to be a woman? Celia depend.
1t wouldn't pay at all to bea German
woman of the lower orders in Ger
many, but if she happens to be an
American woman she has the best
time in the world. She skins the
cream of life, she hos all the best
places and the most delightful eXpe-
riences. The man who doesn't make
"place aux DANES" the law of his life
in America incurs the scorn of his fell
low beings. 1t pays especially to be
charming woman. 1t doesn't pay to
be hard and bitter and complaining,
boring everybody with wanting,
heaven knows what, nor the COM
plainant herself. DIR. Holmes desig-
mates the kind of woman it "pays"
to be when he says sheshould snake
people glad to be near her."

Stick to the Farm.

The average farmer who expects to
make money should stick to his pusi-
ness. Let somebody else run the
groceries. A farmer with store is
in a similar condition to the store
keeper who has farm. In the first
case the farm supports the store, and
in the second the store supports the
farm. The farmer who expects to
make much money should keep out
of an active political life. He can
perform the ordinary duties of citizen
ship without any financial strain, but
a regular political career is a perpetu-
al lien upon his energies, and an I'M
redeemable mortgage upon his cash.
A political career is proper enough
and honorable enough and all that,
but it is not profitable as far as money
is concerned. A farmer who wishes
to get as much money as possible from
his farm must know three things
himself, the farm and the markets.
A farmer should study and study
thoroughly his own make up-his
tastes, his weak points, his strong
points, his ambition and his mental
and physical habits. The man with
a taste for Jersey stock has no bust
ness to fool away his time on short
horns and vice Uersa. The lover of
vines and plants and shrubs is not
likely to get rich growing hay, or
feeding hogs; the man who makes a
failure raising wheat on a section OF
land in Dakota may very likely
make a success on a ten-acre garden
near the great markets, if his tastes
run in that direction. 1t is a great
waste of nervous energy for people to
do those things which are distasteful
to them.

Useless Expenses.

Western PIowman.
The following is an account of the
use of tobacco in q moderate form:
If a man spends on each of the six
working days of the week five cents
for chewing tobacco and ten cents for
cigars, and ten cents for cigars on
Sunday, the amount for one week ex-
pended will be $l.00; for six months
$4,000. This taken as the capital at
seven per cent. compound interest per
annum, with the above rate of ex-
pense, it will amount in five years to
$304,96; in ten years $795. in fifteen
years 81 ,34l.97 lin twenty years 50, lO2
"a; in twenty-five years So, 405.37; in
thirty years $5,10S.56; in thirty-fve
years $7,511.0S; in forty years $1O,-
90O.O7; in forty-tive years l5,5S0.59 {;
in fifty years $50, 423.9S; in fifty five
years $31, 936.19; in sixty years $45,-
341.11; in sixty-five years $54, 2S1. Al.
Hence a boy who uses tobacco ac-
cording to the above, from the age of
10 years, will expend to his eightieth
year the amount (at $l,0O per week
with compound interest per annum)
of 1914, 2S1.41. Quite a fortune to some
men. Save one dollar per week, and
at the age of eighty you will have the
above amount. "Take care of the
dimes and the dollars will take care
of themselves"

Farmers Friend.
Ifyou havepolitical rights of which,
even by your own will, you cannot
diyest yourself, and which therefore
are properly inalienable, SO you have
political duties, which also you can
not justly neglect or lay aside. 1t is
your duty as citizen to obey the
laws, even if they are, in your belief,
unjust or unwise. tits your right to
expose the folly or injustice, to de-
mand its repeal, and to use every fair
and honorable means to obtain that
result. But SO long as it remains
law, you are bound by every consid-
Grafton to obey it. 1t is your sacred
duty, as a citizen of themost free and
enlightened country in the world, to
vote at all elections, and to inform
yourself beforehand what measures
and men ought to receive your sup
port. 1t is your duty, if you are a
friend of good government, to insist
upon the prompt execution of the
laws; to be ready, even at much per-
sonal inconvenience, to aid in their
enforcement, and to resent with in
dignation every sign of lawlessness
and violence, and vigorously labor
for its suppression. 1t is your duty
to act generally with some political
party, and to exert your influence to
induce the nomination of honest and
capable men for Office, and it is yolu'
duty, if your party dominates a bad
man to cote against him, thus laboring
for the public goodand setting an ex-
ample of truepublicspirit before your
fellow-men. 1t is your duty to watch
the conduct of public officers to see
that they perform their duties and
observe their Constitutional limita-
tons; and if they do not, then it is
your duty to help expose them, and
at the elections to punish them. 1t
Is your duty to frown upon those who
use political power to advance their
own selfish interests and the interests
Of their friends. 1t is your duty to
oppose the eXravagant expenditure
of the public funds, or their division
to private uses. In brief, tits your

The simplest rules for the preven-
ton of sleeplessness are, Don't wor-
ry," and don't think ~ am. afraid l
shan't Sleep" Think that the rest
obtained by lying downat full length
and relaxing every muscle is one
means of restoration of the bodily
powers, even if sleep does not come.
A bath or showering the lower part
of the spine with cold water quiets
the brain. A little food, if one is
hungry, is well-knownremedy, and
Jamaica ginger or ginger tea will
often cool the brain by warming the
stomach and in this way will produce

Scissored and Penned.

Western Plowman.
Good seed planted in thoroughly
prepared soil ,amply fertilized andun-
sparingly cultivated will produce
abundant crops.
1.-THE farmer would keep his soil in
the highest state of fertility, he must
consider his grass his most valuable
crop and use his farm accordingly.
If one would make his home look
attractive, plant trees, flowers and
shrubs around the house, keep the
yard and walks free from weeds and
cut the briers which disfigure the
front fences.
The best method of farming-make
it your business and study it as you
would study for the law or medicine.
Hard work and steady work are
necessary for the farmer if he would
obtain the best results. But don't
overwork. Better rest a while some
times than pay a heavy Doctors bill.
you want your boys to stay on
the farm make it interesting for them
and let them lead something besides
a dogs life. A boy is a Jun loving
animal and must have some amuse-
ment or he will not be contented.
Look out for this and make the old
home SO pleasant he will have no de-
sire to leave it. The return will re-
pay the out lay necessary to
brighten up little, and you will be
surprised at the corresponding bright
ening in yourself.
The farmer whose information rela
tive to his calling goes no further than
his own experience or that of his
neighbours is far from being the man
he might be. Go home, take good
papers, read your books and seek to
enlarge your stock of knowledge by
every possible means. DO not take
some ones theory off hand, but use
your brains in studying it out and
adapting it to your own soil and
methods of cultivation. In this way
you can be what you should, and in
no other.
Farmers could spend little time
each day reading very profitably,
Reading will strengthen the mind by
bringing it in contact with others
thoughts. This is the one great lack
of American farmers, their intellects
are not cultivated enough. Let us
have more of it.

TOBACCO.

Come old and young and hear me tell
How strong tobacco smokers smell,
Who love to smoke their pipes so WELL
That for tobacco they will sell
Their right to social union.
And you can tell when they are near,
Though not word from them you hear;
They love their pipes so very dear,
Their breath grows stronger every year,
While in this smoking union.
They clean their pipe stem with wire
They fill the bowl and put in the fire,
And smoke until it does expire;
And never do they seem to tire,
In this laborious union.
Sometimes from five to six you see,
Collected in one company,
And every person in full glee-
They then must have smoking spree,
A fetid smoking union.
Sometimes within their neighbors' door,
They there will tell of pleasures DER,
And spit upon the hearth or floor,
Until it spreads foot or more,
And still they are lacking union.
When they are sad they'll chew much more,
Than they have ever done before,
And yet their troubles are not DER,
Tobacco makes their tongues so sore,
Tbax IN pnaf oi onnd uninn
Oft the cuds are so large within,
The juice runs out and down the chin,
And there we see the filth again;
The mouths too full to hold it in,
And sing pretty union.
At the church we sometimes view,
The slobbers run foot or two;
For persons there will spit and chew,
Enough to make buzzard spew,
And sing the heavenly union.
Some ladies dip tobacco snuff,
While others have a pipe and puff,
And others chew the nasty stuff,
And all their mouths look bad enough,
To sing the filthy union.
If people had their money lent,
That for tobacco they have spent,
So many need not have to rent,
But live at home with much content,
And dwell in peace and union.
They then could pay the preachers well,
And hear the truths that he might tell,
To sinners on their way to hell;
Inviting them with God to dwell,
And live with Christ in union.
The preacher too might quit the weed,
From such expense be always freed;
And much less money then he'd need,
And in much nicer things could lead,
And talk to us of union.
We'd not then see him in the stand,
There acting like filthy man,
Who spits upon the desk as grand
AS though he owned all Canaan's land,
Before he breaches union.
His lady too might quit the stuff,
Lay down her pipe and all her snuff;
Their paths then would not be so rough,
And still their children have enough,
Without tobacco union.
Come one and all and quit the trade,
And try to be of nicer grade.
And read your Bibles in the shade,
And then you'll see you are better paid
Than in this costly union.
