Ask the Price.

Whenever I want any thing I always
ask the price of It, whether it be new
coat or shoulder Of mutton, pound of
tea or bal! OF pack string. If i. ap'
pears to be worth the money | buy
that is, if j can afford it; but if not, l
let it alone; for he is no wise man who
pays for thing more than it is worth.
But not only in the comforts of food
and clothing, but in all other things, /
ask the same question; for there is
price to days enjoyment as we'll as to
joint of butchers meat.
The spendthrift sets his heart on ex-
pensive baubles, but he does not ask
their price; he is, therefore obliged to
give them his houses, his lands, his
friends and his comfort; and these are
fifty times more than they are worth.
I The drunkard is determined to have
his brandy and gin and his strong ale;
and he never makes the price an object !;
40 he pays for them with his wealth, his
character, and his peace-and sad bar
gain he makes of it 1t is the same
with others.
The gamester will be rich at once, but
riches may be bought too dear; for he
who is getting money also gets the habit
of risking it on the turn OF card or
throw of the dice will soon bring pounds
to pence. The gamester pays for his
riches with his rest, his reputation and
his happiness. Do you think, if the
highwayman asked for the price of un'
godly gain he would ever commit rob-
bery7 No, neverl But he does not ask
the price, and foolishly gives for it his
liberty, if not his life.
Ask the price of what you would pos
sess, and make good bargain. A little
prudence will secure you great deal OF
peace, But If, after all, you will have
the pleasure of sin, pray consider the
price you must pay for it.-E0amgetscaS
