Yonng man don't get drunk THE

Young man, don't get drunk. The
business men Of the world among
whom you must expect to labor and
win your bread or a fortune, are not
looking out for drunkards toemploy
them in their business Business
and drinking whiskey areopposed to
each other and won't harmonize.-
The first inquiry business man
makes when he wants to employ a
man is, "Does he drink" If this
question is answered afirmatively
he looks for another man at once; if
in the negative, it is a strong point
in favor of the applicant for q place.
There is no exception to this rule.
The employer who drinks wants a
sober man and the man who does
not drink will not tolerate in his
business a man who does. Don't
drink, as you hope to get and retain
employment or grow up a valued and
valuable business man.-N
