AN ARKANSAS FATHERS ADVICE TO
HIS Son. Bob, you are about leaving
home for strange parts. You are going
to throw me out of the game and go il
alone. The odds are agin you, Bob-re'
member, industry aud perseverance are
the winning cards, as they are the Chow
ers." Book learning and all that sort Of
thing, will do to fill up with, Ike small
y trumps, and you must have the bowers tC
back them, or they amt worth shucks
If luck is agin you pretty strong, dom
cave and look like sick chicken on {
rainy day but hold up your head anC
make believe you are flush of trumps
they don't play half so hard agin you
I've lived and travelled around some, Bob
r.. pa..l ont that ac onon ne tnlLl
thought you held weak hand, .they'l
all buck agin ustrong. So when you
sorter weak, keep on bold front; bu
play cautious; be satisfied with a pint
Many's the hand I've seen 'em euchre
cause they played for too much
Keep your eyes we'll skinned, Bob don
let 'em mig you; recolect the game lay
as much with the head as the hands. R
temperate; never get drunk, for then, n
matter how good your hand, you won
know how to play it; both bowers an
the ace won't save you; for there's sarti
to be mis-deal or something wrong
And another thing Bob, this was spoke
in allow tone don't 60 too much on womer
queens is kinder poor cards; the NOR
YOU have of EN- the worse for you; 20
might have three aud nary trump.
don't say discard 'em all; if you get hol
of one that is a trump, it's all good, an
and theirs sartin to be one out OF four
And above all, Bob, be honest; neve
take another trick which don't belong
you, nor "slip" cards or mig" for the
you can't look your man IN the face an
when that's the case, there's no fun
the game; it's regular "cut throat )
now, Bob, farewell; remember wot | tie
you, and you'll be sure to win and II yC
don't, it serves you right if you g
Hskunked." t''
