Boys here is a little advice to you
such as every parent ought to give to
his son. just read it over and see if
you don't think il is all right. To fol-
low it out may interfere somewhat with
your ideas of what you call ''fun" but
a better and happier manhood will be
yours and will amply repay you for eli
fancied restraints you may feel obliged
to put upon yourselves in order to
practice what you know to be right and
FOR your best interests. Get your father
or mother to read il oyer with you and
find out what they think about it,
Never allow yourself to contract the
habit of swearing. BE always strictly
truthful. BE careful that YOU are al
ways strictly honest, honorable, and
upright in your dealings with others.
There is one thing more | wish
to caution you against, and that is
vanity. 1t is failing which is only too
plainly perceptible in most boys of youl
age, and--do not be angry. il | touch
the sore spot with heavy hand; it is
for your own good that | do it--you
have it in very marked degree. Like
most of your cOmpeers, you think that,
you are now man, and in many
points notice you have already begun
10 ape the ways of men. Don't do it.
Manhood comes not so easily, and of
all disagreeable and Objectionable char
acters, save me, pray You. from a boy
who mistakes himself for a man.
Manhood, with its countless cares and
possibilities. will come soon enough.
If YOU insist on beng man before
your time. cultivate those attributes
which are characteristic Of true man
hood, such as fearless death, scrupulous
honor, dauntless courage, and so on;
but don't. for heavens sake adopt the
foIlies and vices of men,
