April.
In a sordid vestibule, whose walls are
covered with torn mating, the jailor
smokes his pipe filled with kitf, that
slightly opiated plant which takes the
place of tobacco in these parts. Three
women, draped In their haik, are weeping
near q grated opening in the prison door;
and in the interior darkness human face
is scarcely discernible. As we approach,
the women stand aside, and lean arm is
passed through the grating and stretch
ed toward us sup piiantly, without word
being uttered. | put a silver piece IN the
hand; immediately one OF the women
takes the money and hurries away toward
the town, doubtless TO buy bread. look
through the grating, and distinguish
vast foul-smeliing and sombre room,
without air, in which are human forms
croWding and crouching, with the noise
of chains, aud the lamentable ana sinister
murmur of words uttered in low voice.
The criminals in this prison are perhaps
none but people accused of possessing a
few douros which they never even saw,
and who are now waiting in the horror
of this black he'll until the efforts of their
parents or the charity of some traveller
like myself shall help them by degrees to
make no the sum of their ransom!
In presence IF such misery as this one
can understand how the ardent imagina-
ton of these nations is exalted by reiig
ION, and how they seek in religion com
fort, consolation, and hope OF justice
hereafter which will compensate terres-
trial woes by celestial joys, and requite
their suffe rings in chains and dungeons

worry and appointment. There are
instances, of course, where men do well
70 shift about, but they are merely the re-
sult of accident, and are TOO rare o form
rule.
Ii the farmer has home, no mater
how small or how poor, it is my opinion
shat he had better stick TO il aud devote
his energies TO the accumulation of more
acres and the mprovt msng of what ne
has, rather than to start out on an IN
certain hunt for something better. The
secret of success lies, not in brllliept
moves ana changes, but rather in holding
fsst TO what one has, and tbs making the
most Of it, If you happen 70 be thrown
into circumstances not 20 your liking,
remember that in nine cases out Of ten
you would iujure rather than better your
condition by change. Besr in mind
that go where Won may, you are certain
to find something uEcOngenial "a
your taste. The world was not made 20
fit our likes, and zen if We we're so
fortunate as to find the Z ysian field Of
our creams. we would soon IRE of il an6
lorg for something better yet.
Your lot may be hard one and often
! you may feel that you are receiving a re-
ward far from commensurate with your
| labor, but, at the same time, consider well
the question as 20 whether you would
better your condition By moving else
where. If you are dissatisfied, the better
way o improve your lot Is by going to
work TO make the most of what you have.
/ Adapt yourself 70 your surroundings,
and teach yourself to become better
/ satisfied with What you have. lie is much
easier 10 grow up IN better condition
where you already have start than II
Is where you are compelled to begin at
the bottom, and build your way from the
ground.
! Moving about in search of cheaper land
| and better soil is not a sensible thing "a
do. Where you find these advantages
| you are sure to find serious draWbecks, in
ihe way OF poor seasons or poor mar
kets. Besides that, when mau once
gets started moving, he is never satisfied
any where long at time, but is continu-
ally longing 20 Try some orher place just
ahead; and ss a consequence, IA snor'
time he becomes unsettled, and Is suited
with nothing, and the result IS, what little
accumulation he finds himself in a posi-
tiou where he is forced TO accept of what
ever is offered, and that generally Is fal
from as good as what he FIRST gave no.
My advice to every young farmer is
600 slow, Bnd change about as little a
possible. IL you nave anything OF Z
home, never give IL up, unless you know
OF a certainty that you can better you
condition by so doing. Do not listen u
all you hear or read OF the wonderful
benefits to be derived from moving e
this or that place. Remember thas th
bright side is always held mp IN thes
stories, and that the dark side "a LETT 70
you 20 discover when you are there. Bea
in mind that the world is about on quail
10y all over, and that the man who start
out in quest Of an easy place has years o
disappointment before him Make a
your mind TO max. the most of what 20
have, and TO gain by work and goo
management what ia lacking to your sat
isfactlon.
