ADVICE 10 Young Women.


afternoon, Sam Jones ia q sermon to
young women said: "You must be care.
full from when you get your advice. An
ungodly person Is not necessarily a
wicked person. But don't take them as
your coIEnsellors. Many girl has found
out some person can give better advIse
than mamma. Who loves you most,
mamma or somebody elsei II any one
should advise you 1t is your mother.
Not many a mother would give her
daughter bad advice, even II she is un-
godly herself. What harm can there be
In a social dance or game of cards, or
wine at hinnerl Any good book is az
good al the Bible.' Thus some people
will talk to you. When you hear them
put your fingers in your ears and run
away. Law me, girls, wish you could
have read the letters that mothers have
sent me during the week about this meet
ing. The best advice comes from this
blessed book. 1t never ruined boy or
girl. Let mother say her wise words, let
the good of earth be your advisers, but
don't throw away your life by following
bad advice. You mustn't stand in the
Iway of sinners. This means keeping
company with sinners, not standing In
their way and keeping them out Of
Heaven. A girl is known by the COM
Ipany she keeps. No wonder mother is so
particular. Don't choose your COM
papy because they are wealthy. You
lnust measure people not by how much
money they've got, but what kind of
people they are. If you run with girls
that real bad books, you'll be reading
bad boo ks yourself; If you go With girls
Iwho drink wine or play cards, yCein he
drinking wine and playing cards your
Iself. don't care who you are, who your
Imother or father is. but If you run with
bad ompany they'll ruin you As the
lold gentleman said: III you run into bad
icompany ", If you amt burned, they'll

dogs here. The uglier they are the high
priced they are. If you go running wi
