When a man bIiowb the Uriah lleep brand of humbleness H is Just as woll to keep him at arm's length. Such humbleness Is spurious. How disappointing some people are. They are so full of gunh nnd promises that, uiilll one knows them by experience, greut things are ex pected of them. Hut soon It Is real ized that they ore nothing but fonm That boy who was presented with a $7,000.00 pluy liouso by his indulg ent and nnwlao futher will not get one-quarter of tho satisfaction out of It that a boy does out of an old hut or tent that ho puts up by his own efforts and those of his chuuiH. This is the season when seed cata logues entor innumerable homes to gladden the ojob of prospective sub urban gardeners and bring visions of succulent vogetaliles and many tinted flowers of tho glad summer timo. It Is very fortunate that the catalogues roiuu at a time when a largo portion of the country is shiv ering by reaHon of tho phenomenal cold. It is possible I hut the man of vivid Imagination, as lie looks rnptly at tho highly colored pages of gigan tic strawberries, monster roses and other creations of the artist, may be so affected as to Torget the north winds and bitter cold, and Imagine that gentle zephyrs are playing with out and robins singing In the tnt'H. Dntlhtlcfls it Is n good thing to gel bark to the land, hut tho city man hus to be careful that in so doing ht does not make a mistake. That. Is what ho usually does if with no pre vious experience In farming or out door life ho glveH up ills city home nnd calling for a home in the coun try. That thousands of city pie would do far bolter In purtie nnd health by turning fanners goes without saying, hut before farming on their own account they should have some previous experience in j working for others cr by attending an agricultural college. With such ' training there Is no reason why the groat majority of city men who tuke up laud cannot make a success. Itul : let It never be forgotten that fai ni- lug, llko every other calling, memm plenty of work, lie who looks at country life simply through the eyes of the poet and painter Is linuinl to be disappointed when lie gets down to actual experience. Watteau shep herds and dairy maids and an un varying round of Joy and pleasure do not and never did exist except on canvas or In the prospei-t uses or land agents. : I'ORM Toil TODAY. v4444444 OpiMii'ttuiliy.
