Do not Desnise the shon.

The importance Of mechanical training
and Of habits of regularity and method.
cannot be overestimated in their varous
bearings upon the relations Of life, and
we would say to those young men who
are at this moment struggling through
details which appear to be hard, usele's
and full Of wearineSs, to hold on! their
utility may not be apparent at present,
but the day is sure to come when they
will reap the benefit of such discipline
and routine, Hold onl don't give up;
in our country no social preiudices pre-
vail which prevent the humble dyer from
becoming the learned and skillfal chem
is', no barriers exist which deprive those
whom the chances of life have made rude
and unlettered, from becoming shining
lights in the world of science Most
great inventors have sprung from the
ranks of the brave daily workers, and the
field is still wide one, expanding every
day; therefore we say "hold on" to the
training ofthe shop improve ymr spare
hours in mental culture, and reward is
certain.
