Scandal-Mongers.

Do Won hear the scandalmongers
Passing by,
Breathing poison In a whisper.
In sigh?
Moving cautiously and slow,
Smiling sweetly as they go;
Never nosy--gldng smoothly like snake,
Slipping here and sliding there
Through the meadow fresh and fair,
Leaving subtle slime and poison in their wake.
Saw you not the scandalmonger
4ss AS she sat.
Beaming b,ig lily meath the roses
On her hat?
In her dainty gloves and dress
Angellike and nothing else
Seemed she-castng smiles and pleasant words
about.
Once she shrugged and shook her head,
Rails her eyes and moth ng said
When you spoke of friends and yet it left doubt,
Do you watch the scandalmonger
at ball, =
Through the music. rhymng beauty,
Light and all?
MOVING here, and moving there.
With a whisper light as air,
Casting shade VS. on sister wonan's fame
Just whispered word or glance
And doubt forever hangs upon name.
You will find the scandalmongers
Eyerywht re
Sometimes men often women
Young and fair;
Yet their tongues dip foulest slime.
And they spend their leisure time
Casting mud on those who CLIMB by work and worth
Shun them, shun them You go,
They are but the cursed serpents of the earth

Does the young man who persists in be-
ing loafer ever reflect how much less 1t
would cost to be decent. respectable
man. Does he imagine that loaferism is
more economical than gentility? Any
body can be gentleman. If he chooses to
be. without much cost. but it is mighty
expensive being loafer. 1t costs time,
in the first place. days. weeks and months
of it i: in fact. about all the time he has.
for no man can be a first class loaier with
out devoting his whole time to it. The
occupation. well followed. hardly affords
time for eating. sleeping. drive had al
most said drinking, but on reflection, we
will except that. The losfer finds time to
drink whenever invited. at the cost of
friends. Once fully embarked on The sea

friendly sail that sails under an honest
and legitimate flag. Your consorts will
only be the buccaneers of society. II costs
money, for. though the loafer may not
earn q cent or have one for months. the
time lost might have procured him much
money. if devoted to industry instead OF
sloth. 1t costs health. vigor. comfort. all
the true pleasures of living. honor. dig
