It is a very peculiar op eration, and I listened to it with a good deal of interest. 1 say listen ed, because the interesting feature of trimming a hedge consists not s > much in what lho farmer does, an iu what he says. The honest farm er had a crooked knife on the end of a hoe handle. lie stuck this into the tall hedge and gave it a jer k. Then he said : "Ah !" Then ho jerked again and down came the hedge switch. Then he said : "Ah-h I" Then he took hold of the wither ed switch and drew it away from the hedge. Then ho put his thumb to hi 3 mouth and stool on one foot, and said : "Ah-h-H-II! ! I" Then ho once more into the breach dear, dear, friends, made another prod with the book and said, loudly : "Gee-whiz!" Then he pulled out a wicked look ing branch with his hook and roar ed : "Great snakes Then he pulled out a crooked branch so full of thorns that it made your bae'e ache to look at it, and when he stumbled over it and it wrapped it>elf around his legs, he stood still for a scco nd, then drop ped his hook, lifted his hands to heaven and screamed ; "Oh ! Bloody murder !" The next rake he made he brought the whole top of a hedg j plant with live or six branches, right down on hi 3 back. Then lie threw his hedge hook fifty feet into a ten acre field, opened his mouth tin ice in voiceless grasp, spread his arms out and fell down tilt 011 his face dug his toes into the turf, drum ming on the turf in his agony with his clenched fists, and wailed like a storm of wrath : "0!i 1 dad essentially ! Take Lim off ! Somebody take him off." When he got up he said I seemed interested in hedge trimming, and he would teach me how to do it my self. I said no, I wouldn't try to learn. I would like to know how, but 1 was too awfully lazy. TOIL AND BK HAPPY. The Christian fit Work tfiiiska that Ros kin never said a truer thing than this : "If you want knowledge, yon must toil for it ; if food, you must toil for it ; and if pleasure, you must toil for it." Toil is law. Pleasure comes through toil, and not by self-indulgence and indolence. When one gets to love work his life is a happy one. Said a poor man in Brooklyn, the other day, with a family of eleven to provide fbr : If I were woith a million dollars, I should not wish to do much differ ent than I do now every day, work rg hour after hour. I love it a thousand times better than to rest." He hai for nearly half a century been surrounded by workers and has caught the spirit of industry, lie loves his work better tban food or sleep. lie is happy who has con quered laziness, once and forever.
