a FATHERS ADycE.-There is great deal Of phi
i0sOpby and some strong horse sense" in the follow
ing paragraph, and conveyed too, in a manner well
calculated TO impress itself upon the mind Of one who
will read it carefully. We commend it to such of our
young friends as may be-, like Bob " about leaving
home for strange parts" 1t contains good moral
lessons:
IA, ArLaasag Fatzg.s Idriee 10 lis Son-Bob, you
are about leaving home for strange parts You are
going to throw out of the game and 20 it alone.
The odds are agin you. Bob-remembcr that indus
try and perseverance are the winning cards as they
are the 3" bowers" Book learning and all that sort
Of thing will do to ell up with, like small trumps but
you must have the bowers to back them or they amt
worth shucks. If luck is agin you pretty strong
don't and look like a sick chicken on rainy dty
but hold up your head and make believe you arc flush
OF trumps they don't play so hard aein YOU I've
lived and Travelled around some, Bob, and I've found
out that as soon as folks thought you held weak
hand, they'd buck agin you strong. So, when you're
sOrtcr weak, keep a bold front; but play cautious
be satisfied with pint Many's the hand I've seen
cm eucrcd cause they played for too much. Keep
your eyes well skinned Bob: don't let EN- MIC you
rccoect the game lays much with the head as with
the hands. BE temperate; never get drunk for then
10 matter how good your hand, You won't know how
TO play IT.; both bowers and the won't save you
for there's surtin to be " miss deal or something
wrong And another thing, Bob, (this was spoken in
a low tone don't 60 too much on women; queens is
kinder poor cards; the more you have Of EN- the
worse for YOU; yod might have three, and nary
trump. don't say discard EN- all; if you get hold
Of one that is trump it's all good, and there's surtfn
to be one out Of four. And above all, Bob, be
honest; never take a mans trick wot don't belong to
you, nor slip" cards or mig" for then you can't
look your man in the face, and when that's the case
there's no iunin the game; it's regler "cut-throat"
So now, Bob, farewell; remember wot tell YOU and
you'll be sure to win; and if you don't, it sarycs you
right if you get "skunked.7
