A few days since We saw young man
who "conldn't afford to take books out
of the library He was well dressed.
and we wondered if it really was posi-
BILE that he could not afford to pay fit
;y cents year for the very rich bless =
ing the library ought to be to young
man. Yesterday we saw this same
young man pay fifty cents for dozen
cigars, which perhaps will last him two
days. Suppose they last him a week.
This would be lie same lie would
have had to pay for the use OF the Ii
brary a year. Now, that young man
is what is called a"steady young man,
does not drink--and has no immoral
habits. He is spending probably Slco
a year for CIGARS, and other useless lux
uries. Unless he changes these habits
he will ucyer be worth dollar in the
world, and should sickness or adversi-
ty come upon him, will be burden mp
on some eng.
