To Young Men.

IT is easier to be good business man
than a poor one. Half the energy dis
played in keeping ahead that is required
to catch up when behind will save credit,
give more time to business, and add To the
profit and reputation of your work Honor
your engagement. If you promise to meet
a man, or a certain thing, at certain mo-
ment, be ready at the appointed time. If
you go out on business, attend promptly
to the matter on hand and then as prompt
ly go about your own business. Do not
stop to tell stories i'm business hours
If you have place of business, be found
there when wanted No man can get rich
by sitting around stores and saloons. Never
"foOl on business matters If you have
to labor for living, remember that one
hour i'm the morning is better than two at
night. If you employ others, be on hand
to see that they attend to their duties, and
to direct with regularity, promptness
and liberality. Do not meddle with any
business you know nothing of. Never
buy thing simply because the man that
sells it will take it out in trade. Trade is
money. Time is money. A good bust
| ness habit and reputation is always money.
Make your place of business pleasant and
attractive; then stay there to wait Oh Gus
| toners.
Never use quick words, or allow your
self to make haSty or ungentlemanly re-
marks to those in your employ, for to do
so lessons their respect for you and your
influence over them. Help yourself, and
others will help you. BE faithful over the
interest con6ded to your keeping, and all
in good time your responsibilities will be
| increased. Do not be i'm too great haste
| 10, rio l,.rilI
arranged and laid good foundation. Do
not--as you hope to work for success
spend time i'm idlcness If your time
| is your own, business will suffer il
you dc. II it is given to another for
pay it belongs to him, and you have no
more right to steal it than to steal money.
BE Obliging. Strive tn avoid harsh words
and personalities Do not kick every
stone i'm the path; more miles can be
made day by going steadily on than by
stopping to kick. Pay rs you go. A man
of honor respects his word rs he does his
bond. Ask, but never beg. Help others,
when you can, but never give when you
cannot afford TO- simply because it is fash
ionable. Learn to say no. No necessity
of swapping it out dog fashion, but say il
firmly and respectfully. Have but few
confidants, and the fewer the better. Use
your own brains rather than those OF
others. Learn to think and act for your
self BE vigilant Keep ahead, rather
than behind the time. Young men, cut this
out; and if there is folly in the argu
ment, let us know Erctange.

"TO Gods Kingdom"

KING FREDERICK of Prussia was once
travelling in his dominions and passed
through pretty village, where he was To
remain an hour or two.
The villagers were delighted to see their
king and had done their utmost in pre-
pairing To receive him. The School-chil
dren strewed flowers before him; and one
little girl had a pretty verse of welcome ="
to say to him. He listened most kindly,
and told her she performed her task WELL
which pleased her very much. He turned
to the schoolmaster and said he would like
to ask them few questions, and examine
them in what they knew. Now there
happened to he a large dish of oranges on
the table close bv. The king took up one
of these, saying, "To what kingdom does
this belong, children?"
"To the vegetable kingdom" replied
one of the little girls.
"And to what kingdom this?" contin-
ued he, as he took from his pocket IA gold
coin.
"To the mineral kingdom" she an
swered
And to what kingdom do / belong?"
inquired he, expecting, of course, that she
would answer in the right order, To the
animal kingdom" But she paused and
colorcd very deeply, not knowing what to
say She feared that il would not sound
respectful to answer to a king that he be-
longed to the animal kingdom; she puz-
zled her little brain for a reply
Remembering the words in Genesis,
where it says that God "created man in
his own image, in the image of God crea-
ted he him" she quickly looked up, and
said, ITO Gods kingdom, sir
The king stopped down, and placed hi:
hand upon her head A tear stood i'm his
eye. lie was moved by her simple words
Solemnly and devoutly did he answer
"God grant may be counted worthy o
that kingdom"

The small steel chain which winds
round the fusee of watch is about eight
inches in length, and contains upwards of
five hundred links, riveted together. 1t
is not thicker than horse-hair, and the
separate links can but just be perceived
with the naked eye Most If these watch
chains are manufactured at Christchurch,
in Hants. The links are punched ont by
girls from plates of steel, and very young
girls pick up the links, and rivet one TO the
