DoN,p RUN IN DEBT.

DON'T run in ieh4-never mind, never mind
If thy clothes faded and torn,
Fix 'em up, make them do; it Is better by laTS
Than, to have the heart weary and worn.
Who'll love you more for the set of your hat
Or the ruff OF the tie oeYour SHOE
If they know you're in debt for the new.
There is no comfort Itel you, in walking the street
In fine clothes, ifyou know you're in debt,
And feel that Perchance you some fradesnsan may
Who will sneer-''they're not paid for YETI
Good friends. let me beg Of you, dontrun in debt,
If the chairs and the sofa are old
They will fit your bach better than any set,
Unless they're paid for with gold!
If the house too small draw the closer together,
Keep it warm with hearty good will;
big one unpaid for, in all kinds of weather,
Will send to your warm heart,a chill.
Don't run in debi-now, dear girls, take a hint,
Qfthe fashions have changed since last season, 81
Aud Old Nature, we think, has some reason.
But JUS: say your friend that you cannot afford
To spend timeto keep up With the fashions;
That your purse l. too light aid your honor too
To be furnished with such silly passion.
Gents, don't run in debt-let your friends if they
Ravr fine houses, fea thcrs and flowers,
But unlessshey're paid for, be more of a man
Than to envy their sunshny hours.
If you we money 10 spare, have nothing to saw.
To spend your dollars and dimes as YOU please;
But mind you, the E,an who his note has to pay,
Is the man who Is never at case.
Kind husbands. don't run in debt any more;
Twill tiil your wifc's cup full OF sorrow,
To know that your ncIghbOr may call al tho door,

(But lest come of you doubt,)
I'll whisper secret now seeing Ills you
have tried it, and know all about.
The chain h Of debtor is hoevy and cold.
Its links all cOrrosiOn and rust;
Glld it over you WILT is never of gold
Then sPurn it aside with disgust.
The man who's in debt is too often a slave,

Can he hold up his head and look saucy and brave,
When a note he can't pay becomes due?
