RNGooID, Va, June Especial The
weather has faired on and now we are having

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.

Some Hints with Flavor OF Nonsense
Young men in your youth either split
rails or work on a canal boat. Then
when you grow older, the presidential
chair may be yours. Do not dream OF
organizing youthful band of faithful
folio Yers to go west and slaughter In
dians for the red men, with the assist
ance of bad whisky and government
ammunition, are killing themselves as
fast as possible
Always speak kindly to your sick un-
Gle. lie may make a will some day.
and perchance he might leave you one
of the family spoons; or, even better,
you might become the envied possessor
of his antique oak boot jack.
When your parents disagree on some
slight subject preserve a discreet 81.
lence, and, if possible, leave the room,
for when your father comes out second
best, as he invariably will, he may take
his revenge on your youthful hide.
Do not cry when you have to sit in
doors and play with the little girls. As
you grow older, you will find that a
little girl is a great comfort, even
though she consents to be only sister
to you.
In sharing candy with your younger
brother, always bear in mind that too
much would make the little fellow sick.
Remembering this, you will always be
justified in taking the largest share for
yourself. --Munsey's Weekly.
