Farming Pays

The business is now coming to a
point where it is generally recognized
as the most prosperous business go
ing, offering the best future and the
brightest prospects
That being so, there will be no
trouble about keeping the boy on
the farm for he will, be keen to see
that it is the best place to make
money gain the respect of his fellow
men and obtain that standing among
men, which is ambition of every
rightmended boy. 1t is to gain these
things that he has heretofore gone to
the city; it is to gain these things
that he will hereafter stay on the
farm and that will send the youths
of the cities to join him. All he
wants to know is to what pays best
in the sum of human happiness and
comfort and success 1t is now be-
ing demonstrated that in all these
things the farm offers the best oppor-
tunities.

THE LEGEND OF THE LARK
Very Pretty Tale Found in Folk Lore
of .he Aborigines of
Japan.

The Afnu THE aborigines of Japan)
have many legends about birds, one Of
which is very pretty. 1t is thus given
by a rece-.t writer:
The skylark used % live in heaven
One day the God in heaven rent him
down to the earth with a message for
the gods who reside here. telling him
to return the same day. But the lit
tie bird thought the earth such a nice
place that he stayed to play. He was
here 80 long that 1t began to grow
dark. and he therefore determined to
spend the night on the ground The
next day he arose in the air to return
to heaven. but God met him when he
was about six-score feet up, and said:
Why did you not return as told you?
As, therefore. you have disobeyed my
words you shall not return to heaven.
but live upon the earth Although
you may attempt to fly as high up as
heaven. yet you shall never be able to
get any higher than one of two-score
of feet The little bird was exceed
ingly concerned at this. and arguing
with God. said: Oh great God as the
world you made is so beautiful l
could not help taking a look at it. and
so got late. Although you chide me
for this yet l will fly back to heaven.
In this way he answered God But
God did not consent Therefore the
little bird grew more and more dis
tressed and daily went as high as he
could. pleading all the time: yet God
would never consent to his entrance
into heaven again He therefore re-
turned to the earth to play. After a
time he ascended and did the same
thing. yet God did not consent The
same thing continues to happen now
low him to return"
This. as have said. is very pretty
and even spiritual. but it seems to
have been q happy accident. for 1t is
IN striking contrast to the other le-
gends. witch are more or less stupid
