C0PiEs FOR THE NINETEENTH CExruRY.-
The great advance that has been made in mo-
lallty, a in all subjects, 10y the children of tb :,
present generation, nects,itatcs an entire
change OF the present obsolete m axims which
still do duty in copy-books. We beg to offer
lew specimens, to which writing masters are
welcome:
Back no bills
Never believe what anybody tells you.
Always think yourself wiser than every one
eise '''0
Modesty is the ruin of success.
Never expect friend to lend you money
DO others, or they will do you.
Debt is like dccoy it is very easy to 20, IN
but very hard to get out. ~
Thi4k highly of yourself, and Others will
think highly OF you.
Honesty is very useful as a profession, but
Such maxims as these are the best To ;ncul-
cate into the minds oF our children. if we wish
them to walk in the way the world goes
