SUGGESTION FOR FARMERS.

He was the son of a rich and fond father Already "the old man" had set him up in three or four different ven- lures, but in every case the young man had sold out at a loss after not more
 than a few months experience.
 Finally he came home after 8 short
 session as a dry goods merchant in
 Kansas and announced that what he
 really wanted to do was farm it." He had tried nearly everything else,
 and there was something about the free and independent life of the farmer
 that appealed to him. He was willing
 to settle down for good if his father
 would supply farm.
 The fond father bought 160 fertile
 acres two miles from town, laid out
 several hundred dollars in the purchase of live stock and machinery, had the old farmhouse rebuilt, and started his son as the master of the ranch under l the most favorable circumstances | But after the first week or two the young mans ambition to wiring liv- | ing from the soil sadly failed. He let
 the land and the cattle look after them selves and spent most of his time sit | tlng around the ufuS SloIe ana tne | cigar store in town.
 1 Three or four months went by in this way, and if it had not been for the | care of the watchful hired man there
 would have been little left of the farm. i Sometimes for five or six days the young farmer remained in town and his long absences from the scene of
 his agricultural experiment became a matter of common gossip | One day his fond father happened in- 1 to the town cigar store and was met by the smiling proprietor q see your son has become 9 Chris tian scientist" said the cigar man. What are you talking about?" q say your son has become a Chris
 tian Scientist. You bought him a
 farm three or four months ago, didn't 1 you?"
 l Yes"
 Well, he's been giving the farm ab-
 sent treatment ever since, hasn't he?" | -Chicgago Tribune.

 We shall soon hear Paderewsl1i play once more. He comes to the Hyperion on Tuesday night, February 4, to give one recital. "Manru" safely brought before the public will be at liberty to make short American tour before re- turning to Paris. New Haven has al ways had a warm regard for Paderew- ski, and for this reason he has selected this city for his first recital on his re- turn to America. He is expected to arrive on January 29, and on Tuesday evening, February 1, he will give his recital here at the Hyperion.
 Press notices of his concerts wher- ever given are as enthusiastic as ever. For instance: The Dresden Auzeiger of December last says: MT. PadereWskl was greated with great applause. He played his own concerto with orches- tra. This artist whose American repu- tation equals that of Europe, added on Friday fresh branch of laurel to his crown of glory. The first movement is a spirited allegro in which brilliant in strumentation weaves a rich ground for the energetic themes. This allegro is rich in enticing musical beauties and caressing in it's harmony and in the sincerity of it's themes. The finale, rhythmical, quick and graceful, be- comes pathetic as it developes, and cul- inmates in an ever-increasing presto. The entire work is the creation of lively fancy; and achieved trench dous success. MT. Paderewski later in terpreted Chopin's nocturne and with such entrancing quality of tone that his hearers were dead to the outer world"
