Men And Their Hobbies.

A statement made by wise man is
that Every honest man has n hobby"
The man in question did not use these
precise words. says the american
CHtticdtor, but they amount to the
same in substance.
A man who is always tinkerine
around, making something or other in
the mechanical line. is never found
spending his leisure hours in a gin mill
or saloon. The young man whose hob.
by is study will he found ut his books
rs soon as his days work is done and
supper is swallowed.
The chap who has Emusic on the
BRAIN will be putting or scraping his
instrumen: early and late. until his
friends almost wish he would quit his
hobby and relegate himself to the rum
shop.
Many Young men ride mechanical
hobby, and are often building. exper.
mental machines and making "youngn
steam engines. To such men, electric.
ity possesses most enticing field.
There is no end to the directions in
which thought may be probably turned
in connection with electricity. Well
developed rs it is. electricity is as yet
an almost unknown thing. which will
require lifetimes of study to reduce to
the full understanding of all. Elec
tricity is the future power of the world
rs it has always been its life. although
unknown aud uncomprchendcd fol
ages.
That young man will waste hours
and days of his life in doing worse
than nothing, when he has such Il field
before him, is scarcely to be compre-
hended. but it is disgraceful fact. Let
the young awake to the idea that the
advancement of the world depends
upon them personally; that the years
to come may be better or worse as
they choose to study or to be idle. and
it seems as though they would quit
beer drinking dice shaking and card
shuflling instantly to avail themselves
of the privileges before them.
A man ma be about what he makes
himself nowadays. and if lie chooses to
become Il sot. the way is open; ii he
chooses to become power in the land,
he can do so by going TO work in that
direction and keeping at it.
