On Getting Along i'm the World.
BY AN OLD TEACHER.

BY AN OLD TEACHER.
 ED. NEwS:-I suppose you have hun dred young men among your readers, wh
 are trying to attain a certain desirable con
 dition in life. They have something to gail l for themselves not only. but most of then
 have parents or brothers and sisters, or othe
 friends who depend on them for aid, perhaps
 and for many kindly services which they can
 not perform, without a proper fitness ane -every one of them is a member of soaiety
 and has certain dependencies and duties
 which he cannot renounce, and which he can
 not we'll perform without suitable possessions
 of heart and mind and habits. Let me tel
 these young men something which they will do well to take 8 note of:
 "Getting Along" is a quaint old Saxon phrase, but it is to the point, especially to the man who has got to ''hoe his own row." or "paddle his own canoe."
 What to get. First, get Money. This is not the chief good, but it is necessary to sup. ply your first wants your food and clothing come by the use of money, and you will need
 it as long as you live. And not the lower wants of your nature only are met by the use of money; your rational well being, your higher culture, your social position, your use- full influence, are aided by some measure of wealth. This does not imply any obsequious servilty to the wealthy, and it is quite con- sistent with the manly independence of the poor young man. Some ofyou are now main- tained by your parents, or your own labor easily supplies all your present wants, but you had better lay up something for rainy day. you are not born to wealth-as most of you are not-you can gain all that is nsc- essary to an honorable and useful position by your own efforts. An honest and manly en- deavor in poor young man to gain an estate and to win place in society, commands an immediate homage of respect from his fellow men, and it begets in him g conscious inde- pendence and manliness, which is above wealth itself.
 T1se aoGy 10 Wealh for most young men is by industry and economy, good things Of themselves. ''Seest thou man di'igent in HIS ouStnessj Ae sAlah Teanu peIoFe klnSs for economy, though not of itself one of the higher virtues, it is the help ofmany vlr- Lues How it saves young man from idle | company and hurtful habits, and helps him in that self control which gives an elevated l moral tone to all his character, and with the | nigh purpose of hls saving gives it dignity A common mistake of young men is to over- ook the power of small savings. What is he cost of will not say glass of whiskey, because believe you do not know-but of good segar? do not know. Ifyou spend 'sn cents day without necessity, do you
