Bows are nearly an extinct race. There
is scarcely an itermediate stage between

infant is no sooner out of bis long clothes
than he exhibits the incipirnt traits of

fairly iacketed, he wants tobacco pouf b.
a pack of cards. and learns TO swear like
a pirate. At the age Of ten. he begins TO
run with the 'mGshetn,' and his mother
generally knows he is out. because he i
very seldom in. A the age eftweive.
he smokes, drinks and speaks Of his pa
rents, as .old mau and old woman
At fifteen ne wants a gold watch and
a revolver, and talks about 'lamming'
every body that don't keepout Of his way.
Ateighteen, he is the fastest youth about
town. talks of ssetting up for himself
scribbles love letters, and becomes per-
feet adept in games of chess; can drink
more champagne. and eat more raw oys-

About this time his father withholds
his spending money. and the young hope

where he can enjoy his liberty after
sowing his wild oats abroad, returns
home, satisfied that the old folks are not
such great fools after all.
