The Farmer Is IT

The farmer, If be only knew it, is
a little nearer the kingdom of heaven
than anyone on earth. He is certain
OF three square meals day and is
the only man who can fence himself
in and live in spite OF the rest of
mankind. A few cattle and sheen
and fowl provide him with food and
clothing, while his fields yield him
flour and a source of revenue. So
generous are these provisions and 90
common, that hardly one farmer in
ten makes any account of them, al
though the ordinary business man
thinks he has done well when he
reaches the end of the year and finds
that he has a little more than made
ends meet.-Ellis County (Okla. }

A Truthful Assertion

The worst habit that boys can fall
into is that OF Ioafing around on the
streets at night. 1t is then they cast
their lot in slippery places when at
any moment they are likely to fall
from grace. They learn nothing that
is good-but everything bad. The
boys who spend their evenings In
the sacred precincts OF home, with
good books for their companions are
the future hope OF this republic
they will fill our Legislative and
congressional halls, and sit In judg-
nent upon men and measures, while
the boys who run the streets will fill
our penitentiaries, almshouses and
lunatic asylums.
