My hearers-To keep continually
dry, always wear. an oil cloth dress,
carry Al good umbrella and prac-
tice rum drinking. - Thetwo first ar,i-
cles, however are only essential in pro-
tecting the outside from snperabundant
moisture, but the latter keeps the in
side as. dry as a <stove-pipe. i never
saw adrmker but what was eternaily
-dry.dry in all kinds Of weather. He
goes to bed dry. gets-up dry, and keeps
himself dry through the day. It is not
TO be wondered al; Tor how can he be
otherwise than dry, when he keeps the
blue blazes ofheH constantly burning
In his bosom, by pouring double-dis-
titled 1damnatien down his throat. In
facL my fliends, the drunkara is for.
ever dry. The more he drinks, the
drler he grows; on his death bed he
cries for tone more drink for the last
and then goes out ofthe world as thrs
tyi as though he had lived on Goldfish all
the days of his life. / should not won
der much If he called for a cocktail at
the bar Of ofjudgement; and there is no
doubt but he would prefer going to To
phet to abiding in Heaven, if they only
sold liquor there! - H.
My Friends-If you would be wise
you must think, think. 1t is matter
!. of doubt to me whether Eighty fools or
intelligent dogs do the most thinking
You perhaps, think y OH think as much
as the greatest philosophers, but the
deuce OF it is, what do you think about,
F. and what does it amount TO? The
gems Of wisdom, lie deeply buried, and
they can only be obtained by great
. {mental toll. You must dig for them

t wisdom, said my old friend Solomon,
, and he knew-a, thing or two, is the fear

r. sheriff. : ........s

ones coat, jacket and trowsers, and
never provides means to mend them.

exertions, remove every obstacle that
