The young Men" Of Other Days.

-@ ~SSo 0SSS
I often wonder if the young men Of
this day enjoy themselves as much as
we old fellows used when we were their
age. I sometimes think they do not,
because they pay more attention to
their dress than their pleasures. Posi-
lively one everyday young man is a
repetition of the other. They are as
much alike as Cinnamon. It is difficult
to tell them apart unless one fellow has
o cast in his eye, q limp, or has a brok-
en- nose. To me they look as if the
same tailor made their clothes, the
same bootmaker their boots and their
hair and mustaches were trimmed
by the same barber. Their manner
isms have been acquired at the
same school, and their slang studied
from the same book. They tire me
because I am old, and I detest o young
fellow who cannot be original in some
thing-his vices even, it nothing else
be left him. The old crowd, the crop
of gay boys that fourished twenty years
ago, were more independent. If one
fellow appeared with long hair, his
friend would have his own cut short.
If one invented and acquired an odd
expression, oath or otherwise, his right
to it was respected. Nobody tres
passed upon his preserves, nobody bor-
rowed his property. His method of
lighting o cigar, or lifting his hat, or
wearing his necktie was never copied
by a friend. Indeed, the man who
could not cut his own swathe, who had
not brains enough to devise a peculiar
ity, was barred from u circle.-Ingle-
