In the lottery of love the capital

Young Mems Improvidences.

Young manhood seems blighted to-
day by the pernicious habit Of living
in advance of ones income, .anticipat-
ing ina dangerous way the uncertain-
future. The expanding of money on
useless frivolities, the loading ones
self down with desirable, but often
times unnecessary things, purchased
on the installment plan, the careless
loaning of money, and reckless invest
ing, together with the positive sin of
gambling-these things, so common IN
our day-are steadily eating up the IL
nancial reserve of our young men anu
obliging them to constantly face the
menace of poverty, dependence and
disgrace. e...
