Keep Out Of Debt :"

Half the pcrplcXity, annoyance and
trouble that men have in this world is
in consequence Of getting into debt
1t seems to be natural for some people
to buy and incur obligations without
number, 50 long rs they can avoid pay
ing ready money. Give one Of lhi,
sort Il chance 10 buy on credit. and the
questions Of price and conditions OF
payment are matters that llc cares but
little about. But what 4 crop Of trouble
springs up from the seed Of debt. How
many slccplcss nights result from il
how many gray hairs its troubles
bring; and how iCshortens lifc-somc-
times leading to- murder aud suicide.
And yet how easy thing it is to keep
clear OF the mOnstcr.t With the eXcep.
ton or,sick,iess and tic like compel.
lug poor pcrsous to incur debt for
their maintenance. there is but little
necessity for getting into such trouble
Every Young man should form 4 fined
and uuallcInblc resolution, before com.
mencin. his active business career
that he will never incur one dollar OF
indebtedness under any circumstance.
Never borrow. Never buy anything
unless you have tho money to pay.dor
it At once. @l'ny.nonttcntionto ,"splcn-
did opportunities, ""bargains,," ",rarc
chanccs," and the, like; Such affairs
are only traps to catch viotiInS.I lfyou
sec anything you would like to buy,
or If any offer is made that yolr would
like.to accept, look first ut your pile Of
money. and make the answer depend
upo,btllai. Always pay ns:you 60. II
you arc short Of money, gnuge your
demands accordingly. Foster habit:
Of ccouomy; live within your means
buynothing.tlnt you cannot properly
aiiortl and you will go @tlIroughili life
free from the miscries and troubles
that bcsct the path Of the debtor.
