Farmers may not know it, gen erally, but it is iU fact, that1 most cpnfraercial men; who deal directly! with them, speak of them habitual ly as a parcel of chronic grumblers and growlers.' We wonder why ? dertainly, there is no good reason why the faimer ehoidd live in the daikness when hi prosperity is born of the brightness -of Bunshine, the beneficent showers and the mellow and fruitful earth. - It is easy to acquire a hadtt of finding fiiult with blessingi, no matter in wjhut guise they couie ; but it does no ono good, and is a positive harm and a pernicious habit in us influ ence upon the individual grumbler as wellas upon those who, surround hjm and with whom it 'comes in 'contact. An old farmer once said to us that he would not have a hired man pn his farm wljo did not habitually whistle. He always h^red whistlers. Said he never kuew a whistling laborer to find fault with his food, or bed, or complain of any little extra work he was asked to perform. Such, a man was generally kind to children arid to animals in his care. He wbuldjBvbistle a chilled iamb 'into warmth and hfi;, and he would bring in his hat full of eggs from the barn, without breaking one of thlem. Ife found such a man more cuireful about closing gates, putting up bars, nnd seeing th.tt the xnita on 3ns" plough were all properly tightened before he took itlnto the field. He never knew a whistling hired man to kick or beat a cow, or drive her on the run into the stable. He had noticed that the sheep he fed in the yard and shed , gathered around him as he whistl ed, without fear. He never had employed a whistler, who was not thoughtful and eeonomical^^That this fmmer'8 rule hui exceptions there can be doubt;<but tiuit his philosophy is generally correct is equally t,iue A cheerful, hopeful, buoyant man is suio to get through this" life more smoothly? nnd with less friction than one of those chaps with acute angles and rasp-like sides to thtsir characters. A cheer ful family on a farm, is far moie likely to be a prosperous one than one that is composed of glum, and growling individuals, who arp foi- evjer finding fault and tui ning even prosperity nnd success into a, com plaint. An analysis of the charac ter of those who succeed <ts farmers, and whose homes are places of rest and refreshment, will show that the dark side of life1 is'always snb- bordihated to the bright side that cheerfulness is the prevailing char acteristic, and gives ' temper and tonei it is certainly worth wtile, as a matter of dollars and cents, that the farmes should cultivate cheer fulness and hopefulness. It divests labor of two-thirds of j its friction. It makes the boys and girls con tented on the farm. It relieves the self-sacrificing wjfe oi a large proportion of the load of caie, which becomes doubly weighted if there is no brightness and cheerful ness in the habitual demeanor of the farmer. Men and women who am employed to assist-in farm labor will work cheaper and more zeal ously- with . family who cultivate a [ cnearfDl spirit, etypy, innocent fun,| and wake tlie echoes all oyer the ifaun and in the Eoubo, from morning till night, with jollity and g4od cheer. The merchant will sell cheaper and deal more liberally with a keen, wide-awake, jolly far- nW, than with a long anld sour- fa :ed jjiurobler. This is no trivial mitter. It enters into the business as an integer, just! as sunshine makes crops. Burst < New Yorker. 110 Sjfrit softe qs= and the last; black- eps them.
