What Boys Should BE.
Home Arts.l


First: Be true-be genuine. No educa-
ton is worth anything that does not include
this. A man had better not know how to
read-he had better never learn letter of
the alphabet, and be true and genuine in in
tention and in action rather than being learn
ed ia ali science and in all languages, to be
at the same time false in heart and counter
felt in life Above all things, teach the Buys
that truth Is more than riches, more than
culture, more than earthly power or posi-
ton.
Second: Be pure in thought, language
pure in mind and body. An impure man,
young or old, poisoning the society where
he moves with smutty stories and impure
examples is a moral ulcer plague spot, a
leper who ought to be treated as were the
lepers of old, who were to cry "Unclean"
as q warning to save others from the pesti-
lence.
Third: Be unselfsh. To care for the
feelings and comforts of others. To be po-;
lite. To be just in ali dealings with others
To be generous, noble and manly. This
will include a genuine reverence for the
aged and things sacred.
Fourth: Be self reliant and self-helpful
even from early childhood. To be indus
trious always, and self supporting at the
earliest proper age. Teach them that all
honest work is honorable, and that an idle,
useless life of dependence on others is dis
graceful.
When a boy has learned these four things,
when he has made these ideas part of his
being-however young he may be, however
poor, however rich he has learned some of
the most Important things he ought to know
when he becomes man. With these four
properly mastered, it will be easy to find out
the rest.

Getting Longer Lived.

We have more than once called attention
to the fact for it is undeniably fact, that
the people of this Republic are steadily in
creasng in duration of life. Almost any
one can see this from observation, If he live
in large city, or from reading the death
notices in the newspapers. In yesterdays
Journal, for instance, the deaths of not less
than 10 persons are recorded rs over ~
wears of age one of them 10, and two Sc.
Nor is this in any way unusual. Almost
any daily death record here will show pre-
ponderance Of old people-meaning those of
So or more. Sixty was considered old even
30 or 40 years ago; but now, when man
of 60 dies, the comment often made is, "he
ought to have lived longer; young man yet"
Indeed persons of sound constitution, quick
mind, active temperament, are, in q
sense, young at 60, for they are
in perfect possession of all their
faculties, capable of any ordinary
amount of work. and still have consider
able future. Many of the most responsible
places in firms and corporations in this city
are held by men of 20 or thereabouts, and
they evince no disposition to retire. New
York Is noted for vigorous old men. In no
city on the continent, and hardly any city
in Europe, can so many hale active men OF
60 and upward be found. Walking in
Broadway, Wall or Broad streets, in Fifth
avenue or any of the principal thoroughfares,
one can hardly fail to be struck by the gray
or white hair and wrinkled faces, coupled
with erect, elastic forms and suppleness and
rapidity of movement. There appear to be
numberless ancient heads on comparatively
young shoulders. The opinion long prevail
ed that rural pursuits favored longevity;
but lift were 80 once, which is very dubious,
it ia not so now. Great centers supply ease,
comforts, material facilities, and save an
endless amount of friction, while the country,
its monotony, lack of interest, fatiguing
round of small concerns, and very hard work
wear on the strongest system. Men in cities
generally live not only much more but much
longer.

1t would be an idle task for one, standing
beside his strawberry bed in June, to try to
determine how much of its matchless flavor
the scarlet fruit owed to q congenial soil,
how much to moist mulchings, how much to
timely showers, how much to the kissing
of the sunshine Yet that would be an east
er task than to determine the relative poten-
cy of the multitude of influences that have a
hand in shaping personal character. We
are apt to think that sermons and lectures
and newspapers and Bible. classes and mass
meetings and magistrates must do most of
the work of making men and women what
they ought to be. We have great faith now
adays in machinery. But if it were possible
to pick out all the interviewer influences that
have given form and color to the fabric of
personal character. probably every one of US
would be surprised to see how much, in his
own case, il due to the life and character of
the men and women, too, who have never
exhorted him or elbowed him, but simply
lived their faithful lives before him.-Good
