not be SO much frequented BY boys and
young men under twenty-one years of
age, nor would they feel obliged, as
some do now, to resort to card playing
in there homes in order to keep their
boys there, which is only planting the
seeds of gambling. Were there more
reading, there would be less gossip,
more books talked about, and fewer
people scandalized. Some will say 30
that is very good advice, but reading
matter costs money even SO, SO does
candy nuts, tobacco and many other
useless luxuries and besides our minds
must be occupied, and if occupied with
books we have friends and companions
in them that will never betray US.
But reading matter is not very ex-
pens;ve. When books, good interest
ing and instructive books, can be
bought for from three to twenty five
cents 1t seems no house should be
without reading. Still some will say,
''but only few of such books could be
bought for one dollar, and l don't see
how | can spend so much for books.
How much do you spend weekly for

degree as possible, our education, and
attain the greatest degree of happiness
they must be occupied with good
thoughts.
Now few words as to the kind of
reading. The question concerning read
ing stories, always arises. Perhaps
this may help some. Stories Of an excl
ting nature, or in which we become too
deeply interested, are to the mind, what
intoxicants are to the body, and should
be treated in similar manner; and if
you read short simple stories and find
you have lost taste for instructive read
ing, stop reading them and feed your
mind upon that which will benefit you,
till you have acquired a taste for such
reading; and lastly if you read fiction
choose those works which portray char
acter of the highest types of manhood.
and womanhood.
When we have done all that is in Our
power to educate ourselves and those
around us, and have filled to the fullest
extent, our places in life aided by an
all-wise Heavenly Father, we may stand
at the close of life, on the top round
and gaze back on life of JOY and USE
