HOW TO KEEP YOUNG.

If you should ask me what
counsel l would give to a young
man starting life-how l would
attempt to set him on the road
to happiness-it would run
something like this: Be indust-
rious. Be honest. Be serious
and sincere; don't slur your
work. Deal fairly; like your
neighbor; lend a helping hand.
And don't forget how to play.
Play will keep you young. Lucky
is he who gets his grapes to
market with the bloom on. Read
ing the lesson of my life to my
self, it seems to teach one thing;
that one may have a happy and
not altogether useless life on
cheap and easy terms. The es-
sential things-the true values
are all simple and near at
hand-home, friends, heath,
books. Nature, little leisure,
little money, and above all
things, congenial work some
thing you can put your heart in.
But uncongenial work, even
drudgery, is better than idleness
and indifference.-John Bur-
rOuphS.
