The Rev. Mr.. Durwell an old Methe
0dist minister of Tennessee, went to
Kentucky in the year 1852 to visit a
relative, the Hon. William Bolton, and
was invited to hold family worship
every evening during his stay. One
day Judge Cone and his wife from
Nashville came to pass the night. Mr..
Bolton said to the old minister, as he
brought out the Bible, that he would
best make the service short that even
ing. as the judge was probably not ac-
custo:lcd to such things. The old man
said, Every we'll, very WE'LL" though
he looked panied. He read one or two
verses and then knelt down. 20 Lord, -
he prayed, 1--WE are very poor and
needy creatures, and we know Thou
art able and willing to supply all our
wants; but Cousin William says that
Judge Cone and his wife from Nash
Vile, who are with us, are not used
to family worship, and however needy
we are, there is no time to spare in
telling Thee our wants. Amen" The
judge was greatly taken aback, and so
was his host Between them they per-
suaded Mr.. Durwell to continue his
prayer, which he did with great earn
Sstness and eloquence.

Land Poor.-It is an easy matter to
become land poor. This condition re-
suits from grasping at everything in
sight. The farmer soon finds himself
burdened with more acres than he can
properly handle. But interest and
taxes go merrily on just the same. The
question is, does it pay? We are
glad to say that the tendency in this
direction has had setback in recent
years. From this time forward farm
ers will be inclined to keep smaller
holdings of lands, looking more closely
to the methods by which each acre may
be made to produce an income that will
leave something over for a rainy day
when the expense bills have all been
paid. When the popular disposition is
once well set in this channel it will be
far better for the farming interests of
the country.-Nebraska Farmer.
