ReaI Life in the Country

Life, TO the average man. means
hard, anxious work. with disappoint-
ment at the end, whereas it ought to
mean plenty of time for books and
talk. There is something wrong about
a system which condemns ninety-nine
hundredths of the race to an existence
as bare Of intellectual activity and en-
joyment as that of a horse and with
the addedanxiety concerning the next
months rent. Is there no escape ?
Through years of toll l suspected that
there might be such an escape. Now,
having escaped. l am sure OF It. so
long as oatmeal is less than three
cents a pound, so long as the fish bite
and the cabbage grows, I shall keen
out OF the slavery of modern city ex.
istence, and live in Gods sunshine

Then and Now.

When a young man came a-wooing
in the old days. the entire family didn't
take to the flre-escape so as to give
him a chance. The stern parents stood
guard over the girl, and put the lover
TO his mettle to steal moments con-
verse with her. or press her hand in
secret. Wherefore, there were many
Opponents and few old maids.
The man who can't be driven In at
the front door with a club to see q
girl who is dying to see him, is ready
to break his neck climbing up to a
window to get glance from a maiden
who will maybe look at him, and may
be won't.--Toledo Blade.

The great social object in life Is to get something worth having out ot other folks. What you can try to get depends on what they have got, but almost all of them have something. if only you can get 1t. And there Is no other way to get it except by swapping You must have something to give in exchange that the other people want kindness, wit. affection, knowledge. newe-something that has an exchange value. Accordingly. if we have social aspirations for our children we take what thought we may--and do well to take it--that they shall have due store out of which to make these profitable exchanges. It Is better that they should have reasonable abundance to trade with than that they should be exceptionally shrewd in the trade, for too keen an eye for profit in social dealings works to the prejudice of joy, and 1t IS joy, after all, that h these concerns Is the main consideration. To be eager to give is a wiser social poll icy than to be oversolicitouS to get or overprecise in exacting what we may consider to be our due. To labor to create obligations which will presently have to be liquidated Is not as wise a method of pursuing happiness as simply to try to diffuse joy and taste 1t as if goes. Bnead cast upon the waters of society brings It's best return to those who find their pleasure in dispensing it, and tie no strings to 1t, and are vareless when or whence 1t Is returned Exchange.
