among the green hills, brcathed the invig-
Grating air Of its mountains, and were
reared to manly toll by careful, prudent
and industrious sircs. AS natural con-

letic and stalwart frames, and endowed
with hardy and vigorous physical consti-
tutions. Such was tho regiment when It

RATHER TOUGH on THE BOYS

Boys, did you ever read in some school
book an anecdote of little girl, who
vent to school without her mittens one
singing cold day, because she wanted
to be tough" ," Do you know how much
she suffered with the cold and Grid bitter
ly before she got to school?
What of it?' say all the boys.
Why, merely that am constantly re-
mined of the little girls saying =" want
to be tough, mother" by seeing SO
many young friends yielding to the same
strange desire and trying to be tough ;
and | feel that, under favor of Mr.. Edi-
tor, would like no better text on which
to address few words to the boys than
this simple story.
1t IS often the case, that in course Of
time, words change their meaning very
much. Ten years ago had any one said,
"Charles is getting to be pretty tough" ;"
it would have implied gaining strength
and endurance. Now, when William is
called pretty tough" it means that he
can swear chew, smoke, suck lager, drink
rotgut, drive fast horses, spend money
freely, and curse the old mau' for not
letting him have more. 1t means even
more than that, for there are numerous
other dirty and disreputable sloughs of
iniquity though which he must wade, be-
fore he will como out sufficiently defiled
to meet the approving smile of those
worse than he, and be called most en-
phatically T. u Double /, tough a0
,Oircum stances often demand that some
new word or phase be coined, to meet the
growing needs of young America. For
instance, when young mans friends
wish to overlook failings in him, which,
plainly expressed, would denote rowdy,.
tippler, and libertine, they say i Henry
is a good-heartcd fellow, but little wild;
guess he is getting rather tough" The
plain English OF which is, that he had iu-
tellcct and affections like other people,
but that he was going to pordition as fast
as money, evil associates. and the natural
dccliyity of the path would carry him.
1t is the chief ambition Of q certain
class Of young men to be tough. They
feel well repaid for the disgrace Of any
ncfarious piece of business, if they can
revive the aattering assurance from their
equals, that they are tough:--tough MS
rag-hash. How often they use the word
tough, in their daily walk and 'conyersa-
