Country bows Who are inclined to think
that life In the cities Is easy and COM
Portable compared With their daily toll
In the country, are apt to find themselves
mistaken when they come to town and
subject themselves to the hlghrpressure
system Of business establishments. An
amusing example Of this sort is related
by country exchange. A farmers boy
weut to the city, finding the work at
home rather tIresome, and obtained
situation In large "family supply"
store where crushing business" WAS
carried on. lie "took bold" very well,
and hls employers liked him.
They were surprised, however, when
he came to them, before he had been
two months In the store and said:
"well, Mr.. Al guess I'll have to
get through here next Saturday night"
"Get throu ,hy'' said his employer,
"why, what's going wrongr
"Oh, nothing particular"
"Areu't you treated wellr'
"First rate, but I'll tell you Just how
it strikes me. Up on the farm we used
to have the thrcshing machine come
once year, aud then we threshed Tor
three DAYS, and you'd better believe
we worked hard; but tell you what
I've been here seven weeks and you've
thrcshed every day. l guess I've got
enough Of It." /,
lie vent back to the farm, convinced
that . farmers life has Its compensa-

This has largely been due to the zeal

tiOnal opportunities are assured of being amply
