City Or Country--Which

A few days ago | was sitting in COM
pany with hall dozen city men from
various walks OF life. In the course
OF the rambling conversation dis
covered that every one OF them had a
desire to get out OF the city and to
live on farm. Most OF them had
once lived in the country, but for var
ious reasons had drifted into the CITY
l was curious to know the reason iur
this general dissatisfaction with city
lite. 1t leaked out, little by little, tn
the whlrl OF city life. with the many
engagements, society demands, meet
ings to attend, lack OF quiet and PR.
vacy, and general turmoil OF business,
society, and politics, was the season
most OF these men wished to get oft
OF the city. 1t was easy to see their
longing for the quiet fields and the
open sky, and for the naturaness ami
simplicity OF country life. They were
homesick for the simple life.
One man among them, however, |
had reason to know, was not bothered
with meetings and society; for he never
goes anywhere except to his plodding
work as a teamster. He is one Of
those pitiable fellows who is at home
every evening, and never goes to a
political meeting, to church, or to a
party. The city whir!s about him. but
he lives his narrow little life alone.
untouched by the rich and interesting
lie about him. Why should he want
to 60 back to the farm? | dc pot
know; rOr he does not talk much. But
l Judge that he finds the city a lone
some pace. he city is the onesom-
est place on earth to one who insists
on beng a stranger. a crowd is lone
somer than desert, ii, in the crowd,
you care for nobody, and nobody cares
for you
These half-dozen men fairly repre-
sent two classes that compose the
greater part OF any large city. One
class is lonesome, the other isn't lone
some enough. One class is hungry
because they avoid their fellow men,
an dthe others are surfeited with So
ciety and an artificial life.
This is why nearly every city man
who was once a farmer boy, turns
back with homesick heart to the coun-
try. He longs for the sympathy OF
nature, 10 ra life that is natural and
simple, Tor the freedom OF wide fields
and the open sky. 1t is a feeling akin
TO that OF the Prodigal Son return
ing to his father.
these things should give pause to
the boy who is planning to leave
farm II you think life in the city is
happier, you are barking up the wron
Tree. The country offers you better
ehance today Tor prosperous and
happy lie than the city does. Life in
the country need not be narrow, iso-
lated, and unsociabie. Study how to
make your school house, your church.
your home, center for the best

Heart Cheer

The art OF life consists in taking

IRON the soul to the body more thar

She spoke OF those who had walk
ed with her long ago in her garden
and for whose sake, now that they had
all gone into the word OF light, every
flower was doubly dear. Would it be
true proof OF loyalty to them ii she
lived gloomily or despondently be-
cause they were away: She spoke OF
the duty OF being ready to welcome
happiness as well as to endure pain
and o. the strength that endurance
wins by being grateful for small daily
joys, like the evening light, and the
SINE. OF roses and the singing o
birds. She spoke OF the faith that
rests on the unseen wisdom and Love
like a child on its mothers breast. and
the melting away OF doubts in the
warmth OF an effort to do some good
i'll the world.
1T seems to me that the shortest
way to check the darker forms of de-
celt is to set watch more scrupulous

at all. DO not think OF one lastly as
harmless, and another as sight. and
another as unintended Cast them all
aside; they may be light and acciden-
tai; but they are an ugly SCOT from
the smoke OF the pit for all that; and
it is better that our hearts should be
swept clean OF them, without over care
as to which is largest or blacklist.
Speaking truth is like writing fair,
and comes On,y by practice; il is less
a matter OF Will than OF habit, and
doubt ii any occasion can be trivial
which permits the practice and lorna

Railroad Helps Farmers

The management OF the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad is highly encour-
aged by the marked interest shown
by the farmers living along its lines
in Eastern Ohio, in which section OF
the State an Agricultural Education
train was operated last week, through
the cooperation OF the Department OF
Agriculture of the Ohio State Univer-
sity. The train was run between
Wheeling and GAINESVILLE, thence to
Marietta, between which points lee
lures covering an hour and hall each
were delivered by the experts from
the University. The total attendance
at this years lectures was 1910, as
compared with 26So in attendance last
year.
The train was made up OF four first
class coaches, in which the lectures
were delivered, the time being divided
equally on the subjects Or horticulture
and poultry raising The experts were
gratihed at the interest shown in
heart to heart talks on the cultivate II
and care OF orchards, likewise the ap-
plicaton OF scientific methods as ap
piled to poultry raising A noticeable
feature OF this interest, as commented
upon by the authorities, was manifest
ed in the questions asked.
AT GAINESVILLE, Ohio, farmer state
to the lecturers that he had attended
a similar lecture last year and ha
come to testify as to the benefits
rived by adhering to the methods pre-
scrlbed. He owns an orchard OF l 3-4
acres, IS years old, which, prior to
last year had not been sprayed for
three years and practically ceased to
yield. During the past year by follow
ing instructions, spraying, etc. 1900
bushels OF apples had been gathered
These were sold for 5000, at a total ex-
pense OF $500, which gave a net return
OF 500, or $500 to the acre. Other Ii
ticulturists in Eastern Ohio are a,
ing the same methods and may expect
similar results within year or so
The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad will
operate an Agricultural train over a
portion OF its line in Maryland, for
three days Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday, February 8, 9, and 10. On
Wednesday the train will be run over

selfish deed, the failure to show sym
pathy and kindly help where we had
the opportunity, but missed 1t; and
enable us so to live that we may daily
do something to lessen the tide OF hui
man sorrow and add to the sum OF
human happiness"
To live with high ideal is a sue
cessful life. It is not what one does,
but what one tries to do, that makes
the soul strong and fit for a noble
career.
".As we meet and touch each day,
The many travellers on our way,
Let every such brief contact be
A glorious, helpful ministry;
The contact OF the soil and seed,
Each giving to the others need,
Each keeping on the others best,
And blessing, each, as we'll as blest."
If you would be loved as COM
panion. avoid unnecessary criticism
upon those with whom you live"
They who tread the path OF labor fol-
low where my feet have trod;
They who work without complaining
do the holy will OF Cod
DO what you can-give what you
have Only stop not with feelings !;
carry your charity into deeds; do and
give what costs you something"

OF care land loss and pain,
