I FOR BOYS

Mrs. Charles Bartlett of Extra,
contributed this letter written by
her mother in 1884 and the teach
ing is as good today as it was
when written. BY permission we
publish it.
Don't do it my boy. Don't slip
away evenings ard stay out on
the street, loafing till late at night.
You are young now, but the time
will come when you will wish you
had been caleful of your health
and habits. And don't stick dirty
miserable cigarette between your
teeth and puf and smoke until your
lungs become as dry and brittle
as a goose's liver, your skin as vel
low as a dried lemon, and your
eyes as watery as boiled onions.
Don't place your little soft hat
on one side of your little soft
head ard start out in search of
red liquo.. If you do they will
bury you one Of these days and
they'll do it in hurry and bury
you deep.
If you want to be a man let
whiskey a,one. Read, play ball,
k ok UP your heels like young
colt turned oft 10 grass, but don't
pour poison S uff called whiskey
down your thrca. 1t isn't yours
anyway, it beongs to the devil,
and he needs It all, every drop.
And al owe al don't add to the
burdens of your mother; remembe
she loves you IS deeply as when
you were a clean, pure little babe.
She is net as strong as she once
was. Her sep is S over than it
used to be. Be man; respect her,
live right, and when she dies who
loves you moe than amy one will
ever watch over you.
