self will dress as decently as he can
simply and clearly, says Hezekiah
Butterworth, in the Ladies' Home
Journal for August. A boy who re-
spects the worth of life will not dress
conspicuously even if he have the
means. He is best dressed whose ap.
pearsnce excites no special attent ton,
and causes no critical remarks. Con.
spicuous dress goes with light head
and a very indefinite purpose in
life.
Dress does not make the boy, but
it often exhibits him; theatrical dress
in society il In bad taste; but every
one owes it to others to look as well
as he can. Neglected dress shows a
want of self-respect, and q lack OF
selfrespect arises rs . rule from q
sense of cheapness of character. 1t lie

he can always express his we'll
