Character.

Circumstances do much towards
moulding character; but can any
circumstance really debar a young
man from forming pure morals?
1t must be remembered that out
side appearances and character are
not identical. Many a n has ac-
quired affable manners but few there
are comparatively who possess good
firm principles. These few are not
like the wood of India which the
ants deyour on the inside leaving a
perfect surface and while 1t looks
fair and strong is decayed and ready
to fall before the first blast. Sound
principles are abiding. Our Maker
has created nothing so capable as the
human heart and mind. He has
said, II will make q man mor pree-
ious than the fine gold of Ophir.'
He has also given us rules to live by,
which. would make US indeed but lit.
tie lower than the angels. ''Cleanse
yourselves from all fitEiiness of the
flesh and spirit" Now does not that
mean a clean b 'dy and a clean mind
and a the tobacco user have a clean
mouth?
Tobacco is not only filthy but il
stupefes aud benumbs the sensibili
ties and is the very stepping stone te
intemperance. The best cigars al
our great Centennial were actually
proved to contain alcohol.
Oh, If our young men could only
be persuaded to turn away from
these corrupting influences and seeE
the highest and better life-those no
Bile attachments within the reach o.
every one endowed with common
ense.
Could they see how q pure man i
almost adored by every good woman
how he is looked up to by men also
as the truly great-how he is envie'
by those who are slaves to evil hahits
they would find these things worth,
of their attention and stop to consider

When the delay had grown to an

his agony of spirit when, on re-
turning to his hotel room, he
CHANGED to pull open a drawer and
therein found the whole bundle OF
