A FEW WORDS OF WISDOM

FOR ALL who are seeking new homes in the
West. If you are going to change your location,
by all means you should keep on about the SAM
LATITUDE" as where you formerly lived, for in
this way you will escape the severe climatic
changes in the weather Incident to the extreme
North or South, having none Of these thinge to
contend with, yourself and family are healthy and
you become a producer at once, consequently soon
independent; on the other hand should you listen
to the many glowing accounts of the sunny South,
or the MILD climate of the North, and thus be in
duced to try your fortunes there, you will find the
reality is not all your fancy painted it. If you go
South it usually takes about two years to get ac-
climated to the climate, during which time, not
being able to work, yourself and family a e CON
sumers, besides being constantly exposed to the
malarial fevers which abound there, and the ex-
perience of many is that they return discouraged,
leaving not a few loved ones beneath the sod in
the sunny South. Therefore, in going West Keep
on about the same latitude which will insure
HEALTH n HAPPINESS. There are mos
excellent lands in Northern Missouri on the line
of the Hannibal & st. 10. r. R., and in Kansas,
Nebraska and Colorado, JUS AS CHEAP AND
600 AS THE SUN EVER sHONE UPoN,"
why not accept a certainty rather than run the
risk oflosing all? Through day and sleeping cars
are run from Toledo, Ohio, via the Wabash R'y
and Quincy to st. Jo. ,Atciiison and Kansas City,
and from Chicago via Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy r. R, whereby all are furnished frst-class
accommodations =

Temptation.

We have a great deal to say to our
young friends about temptation, be-
cause in youth a persons susceptible
tiles are greater than at any other
time of life. There is much to be said
besides telling a person what he
should avoid, or admonishing him to
shun this or that. The best way to a.
void a thing is to cultivate something
antagonistic to it; in fact, if one does
not do this, his chances of successful
ly carrying out his resolves are only
half what they might be. Ifaperson
can acquire a relish for good, whole
some, improving society, he will be
in less danger than if he simply shun-
ned bad company, and the same may
be said of good many other things.
Among the 'greatest protective agen-
cies is a taste for reading. One sell
dom sees a person of such tastes in
the ranks of the fast young men who
are getting in their crop of wild oats.
There is nothing muck cheaper than
such a taste indeed, it is wonderful
how cheap are all kinds of culture
compared with the different sorts of
dissipation. A young man who has
his business to study and whose live
lihood and hope of advancement in
the world depends altogether on his
own e~xertions, will have brief time to
devote to other things, but such time
may be we'll filled up, and by Guilt
waiting a taste for that which is i'm
proving and elevating, in whatever
department it may be, any inclination
in an opposite direction is ~effectually
destroyed.

No portion of the continent of America presents

the beautiful City of Denver. The magnihcence
