The Debts Of Minors.

THERE can be no more certain assur-
ance to young man of disastrous busi-
ness life than the incurring ofde BITS during
his minority. And the term minority may
be considered to include the years during
which he remains in the position of clerk
or pupil even though his years extend be-
yond the years of "One and twenty" which
to many needless youth is the date of con-
firmed pecuniary slavery not freedom Ex-
pensive habits among clerks, apprentices,
the under graduates of colleges, and the
students of professions, lead to pecuniary
embarrassments of the very worst descrip-
ton, for it is not seldom the case that the
parents of these young men are put to
very great cost and frequently have to ex-
ercise the most rigid economy, to provide
and continue the means of their support.
The calculation of expenses has been
based upon the necessary outlay only.
Many of the fondest parents would decline
to mortgage their property, or to obtain
money at interest, or to wrong their other
children, in order to give the favored son
money to spend in amusements, overiress-
ing, or dissipation in any form. The young
man himself would not dare to ask this in
plain terms, and yet not few incur ex-
penses and appeal through mother, or
self DENYING sister, for the funds to obtain

This is exactly. the formula of theahigh-
wayman reversed to suit the case; Your

and the family pride thus appealed TO- the
applicant is Successful while any means of
satisfying the demand is left;- and the
household at home pinch ithemselvesNth that
the graceless son may flourish abroad.
But the appetite grows, by what it feeds
on, and all that can be raised at home is
insufficient, Habits of duplicity are Gre
ated, and the fond parents are deceived
into thinking that they have quenohed the
fire, when they have only, in reality, been
supplying fuel. The young spendthfitt is
more involved than ever, more exiravagant
and more reckless. The evil habit OF in
dulgence to escape thought follows, and,
from the first sad mistake of outrunning
the income, alife of mistakes is. dated:
The small leak sinks the. ,ships and sad
wreck, mental, moral and pecuniary; is the
result Parental affection sent forth the
bark fully equipped, and hoped to see it
return iully freighted. But the result is,
