how. the lad who is not gruff or suriy'
one who does not use profane or inoe-
cent language, has much better cnance
of obtaining employment and keeping

only road to success. Work necessarily
Whatever you do, do IL as well as you
know how. Don't be afraid OF soiling
YOUR hands. Work is honorable, no

maidens of success.
Why not learn trade? The master
of a good trade is better equipped for
the struggle Of life than the young man
who is too proud TO soil his hands by
handling tools. All boys should be
made to learn trades. IL was the Gus
tom of kings, once upon a time, TO see
to il that not only their sons but their
daughters, also, were taught trades or
some useful occupation. One OF the
necessities OF the times Is for better
facilities for industrial education. by
all means learn trade, boys. III VIII
be OF service To you In after lilo. L
could name scores Of successful men
to-day, who were printers, engraYers'
telegraph operators or members OF some
other useful craft.
Be neat In your apparel. Men DO
not like boys who are slovenly In their
attire. A good personal appearance Is
much in a boys favor.
Be thrifty. Save some portion OF
each days earnings. No matter how
small your pay, save some OF IL.
Begin early in life TO save, and you
will be surprised 20 see how the dol
lars will roll up as you grow older. do
not be parsimonious with your
money. Do good with IL
when you cam Help some worthy
brother along the rough road. Money
is valuable for the good IL may do. Let
me advise you strongly to keep out OF
debt Thousands OF great commercial
houses have been wrecked by getting
into debt. Begin by putting some
money in bank early In life and add 10
IL whenever you can. When opportu-
nifty offers, invest 1t securely. Do not
borrow or lend. Both are vices TO DO
Stunned.
Keep good company. Avoid COM
panions who may lead you into tempta-
ton. Set your standard OF morality
and fello 1ship high. You will find tho
world peopled with strange beings, and
although you may know a great many
persons, you will not be able TO make
many friends-true, generous, helpful,
faithful TO the end.
A word about your health. II your
body is not sound, your mind Will not
be. Take plenty OF exercise. Keep
out in the open air and Gods pure sun
light as much as you can. Then you
will become vigorous in body, and by
work and study you will become strong
in mind.

Ny ideal is not an impossible one. /
