FRIENDLY ADVICE.
Josh Billings Parting Shot to Cheeky
 Drummer

Josh Billings Parting Shot to Cheeky Drummer. About Christmas time once the some time famous Josh Billings, humorist. was on his way to his old home at Lanesboro, Mass. On the train were three travelling men who wanted a game of whist. One of them pointed to unpretentious and unprepossessing Josh and said:
 Lets ask Rube into the game and comb some of the hayseed out of his hair"
 My venerable friend" he said as he laid his hand on the shoulder of the old man, will you join us in a game of whist?"
 "Ya-as; we will get there in abaour three hours," replied Josh, putting his hand to his ear.
 You don't seem to understand" said the young fellow in louder tone. "We want you to take a hand'-
 "Ya-as; the stand O corn has been unusual good this year"
 ''My friend" the young fellow then yelled, twill you take hand in a gamer
 ''Ya-as; I was tellin' Mandy this mornin' how plenty an how fat the game is this year"
 "Oh. you go to the devil." shouted the young fellow as he took his seat. while the other drummers unmerci- fully pestered him.
 When Lanesboro was reached the old fellow got up. handed one of his Josh Billings cards to each one of the trio and then said to his interlocutor:
 Young man. while you are travel ing on your cheek don't get any hay seed on your clothes or the other drummers will take you for Rube and get you into some game and skin you" ."-Pittsburg Dispatch.

ITALIANS IN ARGENTINA.

The Italian is the princi,si i'm migrant. He is easily assimJlated into citizenship because of the lsn- guage, religion and mode of living. The very best class of Italian immi- grants have come hither and now form highly respected portion of the population. If furnishing ex- amples of thrift and industry to a people so lacking in these qualities as some classes of Argentinians are, is a sufficient reason for a grant of citizenship these people deserve it.. Whole colonies of Italians have been established in various places. So large percentage of the immigrant class has come from Italy that they have even had some effect upon the language noticeable in the modified tion of the sounds of the letters From Buenos Ayres Letter to the Springfield (Mass.)

Talking about religion and people of
thirty years ago, one woman who was
quite youthful then, voluntarily con-
fessed the other day as she passed our
shop, that the young people of today
are better than herself and her chums
were when they were growing up! That
is, better in church.
We all-the worst of us--can really be
very good in church. That is easy. If
one does not think too much about the
ugly hat in front 1t is after we step
out the sacred door and commence to
talk-talk about those who seem to us
are playing hypocrites when, N truth,
we DO not know. 1t is after we have
heard a bit of gossip and begin to re-
peat it the way we want it to sound-it
is then we say "he is alright, but
and add what we should not about the
fellow. Enough preaching, thought
And this woman was telling in her
funny way about the revival of the old
school. The revival where so many
were able to sing and pray lin public
where the boys went to meet their
girls, different from now when the girl
sits in church and wonders il che" will
be standing on the outside after the
service is over to take her home.
One night the church was crowded
The older members had to occupy the
amen corner, other prominent members
had TO stand and lean against the wall.
The back benches we're filled with
young people who were afraid they
would get religion. By the way, isn't
that an awful fear? The girls were
sitting on one side of the aisle Ito
themselves" and the boys were on the
other 'to themselves
An anxious young man was eager to
get note across the aisle to his sweet
heart 1t was suggested among the
BOYS that he crawl on the floor and take

BY LOUISE

However, when the preacher asked
the congregation to bow their heads in
prayer, a fat chap Of twenty whispered
to his friend, give me the note". Just
as he was stretched out in the middle of
the aisle, creeping on his hands and
knees, the preacher spoke in a mourn
full way, Lord bless the young man
crawling, and he continued to pray.
Well if clown had stolen into the
church more excitement could not have
been created Everybody, even the
devout Christians, craned their necks to
see who was on the floor. The boys
and girls just eiggled and snickered out
loud.
You know what it is to get the giggles
in church-that is, if you have not
passed that age.
The flowers and feathers on the hat:
shook Every head, though bowed
was turned.
The boy crawled on. He was not
afraid
The Lord did bless him.
Today he is a business man in ST

doubt, because he was not afraid.
1t is better TO be bad and brave thar
to be bad and coward and try TO get
others to perform the acts that you
yourself are afraid 10 do.
The woman said the boys on the bench
were afraid to do what the fat chap did.
In fact they were always afraid.
Afraid to be mischievous.
Afraid they would be too good.
Afraid to walk down the street with
those whom they considered were not
their equal socially.
Afraid yes, just scared-and that is the
reason some of us are sitting still or
the benches today
Afraid TO write what we think.
Afraid we will be criticised if we make
efforts and fail.
Afraid to risk
Afraid to work
Just afraid, are you?
