The successful amateur gambler gradu-

business men shun him
Ne man who plays cards for money
can keep his position long. The fact
is. none of US has surplus Of brains,
and If we are going to succeed in bust

Gambling robs a man Of rest. and the
keen edge Of life is lost in shufflinS
the pasteboards. All he gives to his
employer or the world is the discard
Outside Of his play he is a weak, in

very apt to manifest itself in burden

The curse Of gambling does not fall

Presently the old man fetched an
