II 1 I I 1 1 Work, However Difficult, Is Not Drudgery To I he Man Who! S'iiiks. Wcidon hrota Iwmi WELDON, N. C. o EZXOEZXOE o day are He But A man is working in a neighbor ing garden. To an ordinary ob server he has a long, hard ahead of hint. The wheels thick, the ground is hard, has only the common tools. as the gardener works he sings that song of hope and cheer, "Palms of Victory." The click of tlie hoe keeps time with the words of the song the blade glints its way gayly among the weeds. The spade, warming to the ntusic, cleaves the hard ground easily. The busy minutes go by without fatigue. It may not always be "Palms of Victory," but a glad, lively song it invariably is, and he sings it with a bold enthusiasm, as though he expected it to ease the work as though it might turn the task into a pleasure. And it does ! Under the magic of a merry song the caked earth will yield more readily to the hoe and spade, so what is often called tiresome tasks become instead pleasant activities. The work in the home goes smoother for a song. The thou sand and one things which are clamoring to be done at once are more easily adjusted and finished under the influence of a tinkling, soothing melody. The fire crack les to the tune. The sewing ma chine whirrs to the same happy key. liven the heated discussions of the children end in taking up mother's song.and carrying it along troubles are forgotten. The mind is perplexed. The heart is beating in a minor key. The way is a little hard just now. Things are going wrong. The outlook is not just what we would like. We are fearful lest the 'some thing' may happen. A song may not set everything right, but it relieves the tension. It steadies the nerves. It rounds oft' the sharp edge of disappoint ment or failure. VC'e are calmed and strengthened for a forward step. I he way seems clearer ana the path siraighter ahead of us. Work, however dilficult, is not drudgery to the man who sings. I le who can set drudgery to music has performed a great service. Peoples Home Journal. NOT OUALIFIKl). I . Z A B A .

I For everybody has changed so much I Since forty years ago ! C The people rode to meeting, Jim, I In sleds, instead of sleighs, J And wagons rode as easy then As buggies nowadays. I And oxen answered well for teams, Though now they'd be too slow j For people lived not half so fast I Some forty years ago. O, well do I remember, Jim, I The Franklin patent stove That father bought and paid for, too, j In cloth our girls had wove ! I And how the neighbors wondered When we got the thing to go !

The growing of wheat and corn uses up the soil humus at a rapid rate, and so the time conies when a severe drought destroys the plants on a soil that does not hold the moist ure to the extent that it formerly did. Then the plants die, and the farmer blames the dry weather. WM&W- SHINGLES have solved our roof 1 1 problem. rrJ j r jeaxs .ma repairs and oilrlioirse js improved m appearance. For Sale by J. S.
