A DAY AT A TIME.
It has been said that “more than
half the breakdowns come from try-
ing to live yesterday, tomorrow
next week in the life of today.” ^fcYob-
ably this is true. It is not the things
that sap our strength so much aB the
things that we regret, and the things
we fear—in a word, the things we
worry about Many a man bends un-
der the frightful burdens of yesterday
and fears the foes he may have to
face tomorrow. It would not be so
if he lived a day at a time. Our fail-
ures may be weights or\ wings—when
they leave us nothing bu£~the oppres-
sive sense of our own inefficiency;
wings when they stimulate us to more
earnest endeavor. To dwell upon our
mistakes, our weaknesses, makes us
more likely to blunder on the morrow

FOUR RULES OF LIFE. Y
First. If possible, be well and bave
a good appetite. If these conditions
are yours, the battle is already half
won. Many soul and heart troubles
arise really in the stomach, though It
may seem strange to you.
Second. Be busy. Fill the hours
so full of use and interesting work
that there shall be no time for dwel-
ling on your troubles, ^hat the day
shall dawn full of expectation, the
night fall full of repose.
Third. Forget yourself. You never
will be happy if your thoughts con-
stantly dwell upon yourself, your own
of $ imperfections, your short-comings,
what people think of you and so on. .
Fourth. Trust in God. Believe
that God is, that He really knows
what is best for' you; believe this
truly, and the bitterness is gone from
life.—The Australian Farm Journal.
MOTHER OF 1S CHILDREN.
“I am the mother of eighteen chil-
dren and have the praise of doing
more work than any young woman in
my town,” writes Mrs. C. J. Martin,
Boone Mill, Va. “I suffered for five
years with Btomach trouble and could
not eat as much as a biscuit without
suffering. I have taken three bottles
of Chamberlain’s Tablets and am now
a well woman and weigh 168 pounds.
I can eat anything I want to, and as
much as I want and feel better than
I hr.ve at any time in ton years. I
refer to any one In Boone Mill or vi-
cinity and they will vouch for what
I eay.” Chamberlain’s Tablets are

PLACE FOR 900,000 NEGRO FARM-
ERS.
Booker T. Washington spoke on the
progress of thVnegrd race in its fifty
years of freedom and of. the chances
that the’ future holds for it, in his ad-
dress recently in Philadelphia, in the
Academy of Music, at the opening of
the fourteenth annual convention of
the National Negro League, of which
he is President
He urged that the blacks encour-
age industrial development among
themselves rather than remain con-
tent in the serving class, and espec-
ially advised that they take up and
cultivate farming lands in the South,
r “IBs have ^answered the ...question
as to our survival in a state of free-
dom,” he said, “by showing that from
4.060.000 our numbers have increased
to 10,000,000. The American negro
population is more than twice as
large as the population of Australia,
one and one-half times as large as
that of Canada, nearly as large as the
: combined population of Norway, Swe-
den, Switzerland and Denmark.
“As to our ability to support our-
selves the American Congress is ask-
ed every year to appropriate between
$10,000,000 and $12,00Q,000 for the
300.000 American Indians, but Con-
! gress has not been called upon to pro-
vide a single dollar for clothes, shel-
ter or food for our race. We have
proved our ability to organize. There
are sixty-two banks under the control
of black organizations. We have four
great church branches, with a total
j membership of 3,113,900 members, or
j about 33 per cent of the , race. Our
! business and social organizations
' have a membership of 3,000,000 per-
sons.”—Ex,
FARM FACTS.
By Peter Radford, Farmers’ Union.
Organization is civilization.
Energy is the secret of success.
Labor brings the inspiration of
hope.
Self-preservation is a natural in-
stinct. ’v *
The 'plow teaches the lesson of civ-
ilization.
The farm is-the place where human
kind of
great
character is built.
There is ohly one
men—those who achieve; *
The permanent prosperity of the
city depends upon the farm.
He who plows can produce any-
thing, including health and happiness.
Progress-Ije Rossible only when the
seqds of discontent have been culled.
Distance lepdq enchantment io the
fanner who travels over a good road.
The magic inuuence of the plow
will make a desert bloom and blos-
som. . . .. \
Nature has intended greatness for
men and the farmer is getting his
share.
Farming is successful only when the
crops have been profitably marketed.
Good roads broaden our sympathy,
lessen distance and increase our use-
fulness.
Love of life seems much stronger
on the farm for it is there we corns
in close touch with nature.
It’s the mhn who really counts in
farming. Fertile land is necessary,
but a master mind must solve the
problem of production.
