The "c;tyo Farmer.

Southern Field: In the interchange
Of population between city and country
the law of compensation publishes one
of its edicts. Some one has said-and
the statement does not seem to have
been seriously disputed-that but for
the virile country blood which is con-
stantly injected into the life current
Of New York city that great metropolis
would wane, stagnate and decay. While
it is perhaps too much to say that the
c%ity-bred, city-trained men who take
up practical farming as an occupation
exert an equally potent influence upon
the fortunes of the agricultural sec
lions, he difference is one of degree,
n less palpable only because the
stream Of people exchanging city for
farm occupation does not, at the pres
ent stage Of the country's development,
balance the counter movement. Attri-
ton OF city and rural elements is es-
sential to the growth of each.
1t is asserted that the highest gem
eral average value of farm lands of any
county in a certain state is maintained
by 4 number OF city farmers who
went Out and bought farms, each on
his own individual initiative. The first
successes achieved brought other city
men to join the colony, and in the
course of time it became almost i'm
possible to find a farmer in that whole
section III had not come from some
city occupation. Their success in his
particular section was attributable to
their business training, which fitted
them to deal with market conditions
and conform to popular tastes ard
prejudices in the manner of packing
n marketing their products, intro
ducing innovations which the "prac-
teal" old time farmer was 10th to
adopt.

LIFE.

The poets exclamation: 20 Life |! I
feel thee bounding in my veins," is
Joyous one. Persons that can rarely
or never make it, in honesty to them
selves, are among the most unfortu-
nate. They do not live, but exist; for
to live implies more than to be. To
live is to be we'll and strong-to arise
feeling equal to the ordinary duties of
the day, and to retire not overcome by
them-to feel life bounding in the
veins. A medicine that has made
thousands of people, men and women,
we'll and strong, has accomplished q
great work, bestowing the riches: bless
ings, and that medicine is Hoods Sar-
The weak, run down, or de-
bilitated, from any cause, should not
fail to take it. 1t builds up the whole
system, changes existence into life, and
makes life more abounding. We are
glad to say these words in its favor to
the readers of our columns.

AN OFFICE HOUSEWIFE.

One young woman has declared her.
self in favor of manual labor and is
making headway as an independent
office cleaner and furbisher. Failing
eyesight caused her to relinquish her
vocation OF bookkeeper and bring cour-
ageous she resolved to strike out in
a new field for herself rather than try
any of the conventional resources.
She serves teachers, architects,
physicians, anybody that wants her,
and people with wares or papers in
their Offices that they want made clean
without damages or disturbance are
glad of her help. Beginning with
only two or three clients on her list she
now has as many as she can attend
to and often plies her task at
night.
She carries her working uniform
and implements about her. Her wide
apron and sweeping cap, sleeve pro:
tectors, dustlng cloths and brushes
are rolled up snugly in a travellers
bag. Brooms she tucks away on the
premises.
A fine milliner's showroom and the
Office of designer of fine embroideries
and table pieces are among her charges
Another scene of her activity is q
photographers studio. Sometimes she
gets in an assistant, young woman
in the same category as herself, train
ed to clerical employment, but glad Of
the chance to do work of another
kind.
"Do get tired?" she repeated, with
an expressive gesture. "Indeed, yes.
But it's good, healthy tired, not the
half bewildered, dying away feeling
that comes from over-application at
sedentary work.
"The first week or 80 after I began
my Office house work I would be all
aches at night from he unwonted ex-
ertion. But I find l can do more with
less fatigue all the time as the muscles
get accustomed to the demand, and
moreover my health is better and even
my eyes are recovering"
Being systematic and responsible,
the good character of this girls work
is its own recommendation for getting
her new patrons. She says that in q
few years she expects to have so de-
veloped the business that she will be
operating bureau of Office cleaners,
all efficient helpers. The ranks of
the professional and clerical helpers
being overcrowded and capable prac-
tical workers being scarce she thinks

girls in this department of housework
in which they can combine business
independence with downright needed
service-M Y. Sun.

When the history Of any institution
becomes more important than its pres
ent activities, it is safe to say that its
work in the world is done. As long
as the two mutually support and grace
each other, the past lending a vener-
able dignity to the present and the
present continuing the distinctions Of
the past, the combination is one that
commands the highest reverence.
Not every one is willing to allow
this blended glory to New York's
Trinity Church. Some affect to be-
lieve, perhaps do believe, that it is
chiefly interesting as landmark; that
its burning in l776, and the fact that
Washington retired to its chapel of
St. Paul for prayers after his inaugu-
ration ceremony, are among its most
modern claims to renown. TO others,
Trinity Church means Trinity Cor
poration, rich and powerful organi-
zation owning lands and long leases of
lands; renting out tenements; conduct
ing mastery suits against pretenders
to its riches; an organization not al
ways too scrupulous, in the views of
such persons, in the management of its
properties, having the real estate own
er's passion for income rather than the
zealot's enthusiasm for charity. 1t is
among such as these that are found
those credulous souls who seize upon
and spread, perhaps even originate,
reports to the effect that the Easter
flowers at Trinity cost twenty thousand
dollars.
Again, there are those so bound up
in the present work Of the famous
church that the perspective of its past
is lost upon them. These are those
who teach in its sewing schools, who
visit the sick in its hospitals, its poor
in their homes, who drill boys in its
gymnasiums or instruct them in the
arts of carpentry and iron work, who
rescue sailors from the waterside perils
that beset Jack ashore, who teach
English to foreigners, who save the
poverty-stricken dead from nameless
graves, who brighten poor homes with
howers-those who busy themselves,
in short, with all tie complex and
manifold missions which charity in
cludes in great city.
There is something to be said in
favor of each of these views. Trinity is
the pre-eminent church of the Protes-
tant Episcopal faith in the New World.
Its history is the most dignifled and
interesting. Its holdings are the most
valuable, and as business corporation
