TO THE FARMER-sor.
His Chances Are Best in His Home
Town Rather Than in the Big City.

.. Ny boy, the farm is all right. Some
times you may feel that its environs
are too narrow for you, its life too
much of humdrum. and that you
would prefer to be one of the residents
Of the big city or town. There have
been hundreds and thousands OF 9TH
ers just like you. and with just such
ideas. They have started from the
farm buoyant with hope, and after
years have regretted their youthful
resolutions. Others have succeeded;
have won laurels in the professional
field, In business, in craftsmanship;
but the few who have succeeded thus
are SO small in number compared to
the army of failures that there is lit
tie encouragement for the careful
thinker to leave that which promises
security from want and independence
for life time. The farmer is surely
the most independent of all workers.
He is sure to receive a greater re-
ward for his labors, is his own man
ager, and if he will strive diligently
can aspire to place in the public es-
innate that few can attain in the large
towns.
OF course there are times when you
think there is almost an unbearable
dullness about existence on the farm.
Were you a resident of the city, there
would be times when you would long
for the quietness and the pleasure that
the farm affords. Hours of work may
be long riding the plow, or harvesting
the grain, but far superior is the work
than that the great majority of the
city youths are compelled to follow,
and how much greater the compensa-
ton? How would you like to stand
behind the dry goods or grocery coun-
ter from morning to night for the
small wages that the city clerk re-
ceives? Year after year the laborer
lives in cheap boarding houses and
rarely save sufficient to engage in
business. His is mere subsistence,
and constant struggle The best
years of life are wasted in making
money for others, while the indus
trious farmer is working for himself,
saving money year after year, and
when the time for rest comes it en-.
ables him to take it.
Cities are overcrowdcd with clerk
help. An advertisement inserted in
any daily paper for a clerk to fill any
position will bring hundreds of re-
sponses. The array of unemployed
and those seeking to better their con-
ditions is always large. OF late years
a large element of workers from cit
les are looking toward the farms for
employment. They realize that the
farm offers more permancncy of occu-
patton and greater independence than
like efforts in the city can possibly
afford. Before you concentrate your
attention on employment in city or
town, weigh every matter well, and
then act according to what reason die
tates. You will be very likely to con
clude that the farm is good enough
place for you, and that your own lit
tie home town is preferable to the
ovcr-crowded city. Remember that
your greatest interests center in
what you call your home town. Do
all you can to assist in its improve
ment and make it a better business
place. ID. M. CARR.

When these two talked without ap-
pareN heat it was with unalterable
hXednsss of purpose. They were of
common race The duke was deter
mined that she should wed Doppel-
kim; she was equally determined
that she should not. The gentleman
with che algebraic bump may figure
this out to suit himself.
Have you no pity?'
My reason overshadows it. You do
not suppose shat l take any especial
pleasure in forcing you? But you

and visited heaven knows whom; you
have bribed sentries to let you in

thrust aside the laws as if they meant
nothing; you have trihed with the
state papers and caused the body po-
litic to break up meeting as a conse-
quence of the laughter"

Intelligence is the distinguishing g
mark between the savage and civ.

greatest of Gods blessings, and ig-
norance a curse. In America there ex-
lists no valid reason why every man,
woman and child of normal brain
should not have an education. There
is no phase of life where knowledge
is not necessary. In the most progres.
sive communities is where the supe-
rior schools are found. Help along

Mrs. Ellen Nagle, Ala 4th street, Green

The girl felt her knees give way, and
she sat down. Tears slowly welled u.

everything.

CHAPTER V.

That same evening the grand dukes
valet knocked on the door leading into
the princess apartments, and when
the door opened he gravely announced
that his serene highness desired to
speak to the Princess Hildegarde. 1t
was a command. For some reason,
known best to herself the princess
chose to obey it.
Say that | shall be there present
ly," she said, dismissing the valet.
AS she entered her uncle's study
so called because of its dust-laden
bookshelves. though the duke some
times disturbed their contents to
steady the les of an unbalanced chair
or table-he laid down his pipe and
dismissed his small company of card
players.
