Good Advice 10 Boys.

You are learning a trade. That is a
good thing to have. 1t is better than
gold. Brings always a premium, the
trade must be perfect-no silver plated
affair. When you go to learn trade
do so with determination TO win. Make
up your mind what you will be and be
it. Determine in your own mind to be
good workman
Have pluck and patience. Look out
for the interests of your employer
thus you will learn to look out for your
own. Do not wait to be told every
thing. Remember. Act as though you
wish to learn. If yen have an errand
to do, start off like boy with some life.
Look about you. See how the best
workman in the shop does and copy
after him. Learn to do things we'll
Never slight your work. Whatever is
worth doing at all is worth doing we'll
Every job you do is sign. If you have
done one in ten minutes, see if you
cannot do the next in nine.
Too many boys spoil life time by
not having patience. They work at a
trade until they see about one half of
its mysteries and then strike for high
er wages. Act as if your own interest
and the interest of your employer were
the same. Good mechanics are the
props of society; they are those who
stick TO trades until they learn them.
People always speak well of boy who
minds his own business, who is willing
to work and who seems disposed to be
somebody in time. Learn the whole of
your trade Elk.

Don't.

Don't rush from single blessedness
into double wretchedness.
Don't imagine that there is anything
harder to keep than an umbrella.
Don't think for minute that all
ministers preach what they practice.
Don't try to do the smallest amount
of work possible for the pay you get.
Don't think that because a man is
barber that he always possesses a sharp
razor.
Don't forget that other people may
think yon are as silly as you think
they are.
Don't form an opinion until you have
heard both sides-except in case of
bass 7rum.
Don't marry large hearted person.
You will find they have a capacity for
loving too many at one time.
Don't delude yourself with the idea
that there is good looking woman in
the world who doesn't know it.
Don't imagine that it is possible for
any girl to look unconcerned the first
time she wears an engagement rim. in

Gospel Truth.

Some people are anxious to avoid
paying the home merchant a legitimate
margin. They readily believe any tale
told them by slick tongued frauds or
read in catalogues. Ninety-nine per
cent of these soft snaps are swindles.
The best plan is to patronize your
home merchants; they advertise their
their goods and show them to you when
you call. They pay large part of the
taxes, help support the schools, church
es, etc, and are citizens among u.
They are responsible for the goods they
sell and can be found at any time,
should anything be wrong or the goods
not as represented. In selecting your
home merchant go to the man who ad-
vertises, The fact that he invites your
trade is a sure indication that he is en-
terprising and energetic and that he
has something good to offer you.-Ex.

The Winds of March.

The winds of March are blowing past
With roar and rush and rumble;
Their airy coursers gallop fast,
And never shy or stumble.
About the chimney tops they fling
And all the shutters rattle,
Making the open fireplace ring
With sounds of mimic battle.
Yet bashful swain nor blushing maid
Can deem the March winds hateful
She slyly feigns to be afraid,
And newell, he is grateful.
