mo man-that is, no man of any

man it would be hard to find-put on
his hat one day at an association before

would have cast him out of the syna-

Everyone who owns more than the
clothes on his back should make will.
There is a notion sometimes that you
will die soon II you make your will, but
that is mere nonsense and superstition.
Some men dislike to bring that thought
of death so closely and practically be-
fore their minds, and that is weakness.
What is the use of blinking and closing
ones eyes to the great universal fact?
Death is certain, and the most wise and
most sensible thing is to provide against
it as far as we can. A will makes your
mind easy. 1t saves disputes, quarrels
and much expense after you are gone.
You can change it at any time if desr-
able.

Reynoldsville may lack in somc
things but there is no lack for boys
who are extremely devilish, and if tho
christian parents OF some of these bad
boys were informed of the wickedness
of their offsprings they would hardly
believe your statement, and II the boy
looked innocently-like boys can look
at his father and positively denied
the charges that had been made against
his character, then the father would be-
lieve that you either lied or were mis-
taken about the boy. 1t is delicate
and dangerous business, II you value
friendship, to go to friend and tell
him the faults Of his son. For this
reason many parents are ignorant OF
the evil habits their boys are forming
until the habits have become so strong
that the boys life is wrecked, then the
parent laments and says, "If had only
known that my boy was forming such
habits before he become slave to them,
surely could have saved him." But
his eyes have been opened when it is
too late. Almost every person in a
town knows long before the parents dc
when boy swears, lies, chews tobacco,
smokes cigarettes and cigars, drinks
and does other things that wreck life
and character. "Why is it that other
people know first" you ask? In the
first place the parental love overlooks
many things that the stern world sees
quickly. Secondly, boys can be lambs
ct home, under the parents Dyes, and
lions on the street. Thirdly, people
don't care to tell parents how had their
boys are for the reasons previously
stated IN this article, afraid OF making
m enemy. or course there are parents
who would thank friends for such infor'
nation, but they are few and you can
not always pick them out by their looks,
Parents should always accept such In
formation In good spirit and make q
very careful investigation. Itmay save
shame and bitter tears In after life.
