For the Boys.

The writer. has been boy on farm
and also has had boys of his own on the
farm. We know how to appreciate 8
kind, thoughtful and faithful boy. So
much trouble and anxiety can be saved
to the parents who devote their lives and
energies for their children. So long as
you live at home, no matter how young
ror how old, never start on a journey,
even if it takes you from home but a few
hours, without telling at least some one
of the family of your visit or absence,
Never be absent from your meals, if it
can possibly be avoided, unless the fami-
ly are expecting you will not return to
the meal in time. And especially never
be away at night beyond the appointed
hour, as your loving but weary mother
may be sitting up through the weary
hours of the night for your return, Low
ing parents are always fearing something
will happen you. BY needless absence,
by late hours and by unsteady habits,
which may not be immoral or sinful, you
NAV be wearing out the life and spirits
of a parent faster than any ordinary toll.
AS an old man who has passed through
nearly all of the yiciesitudes Of life, We
would kindly urge boys who are full of
life and spirits, to think, of the little
amenities of life, of courtesy, or conf.
dence in your parents, and of strict f.
deity to your expected return to the
household at suitable and seasonable
hours. All of the trouble and anxiety
of your parents for you are for your good,
your prosperity, and for your successful
march up to manhood and honor. 1t is
easy by carelessness and neglect to make
miserable and shorten the lives of those
who love you most, and whom you can
trust and cop6de in above all others.
Then do not by inattention to your hab-
its of punctuality in promptly returning
to the household, and in advising them
as far as possible, in going away, the
probable hour of your return. Try to
study what will make those kind parents
happy. And above all establish in your
selves habits of promptness and punctu-
ality.-Io,pa State Register.
