OF all evils prevailing among young
men we know of none more blighting
In it's moral effects than the tendency
TO speak slghtingly Of the virtue OF
womsn. Nor Is there anything in
which young men are so thoroly mis-
taken as the low estimate they form
ofthe integrity OF women--not OF
their own mothers and sisters, thank
Goe, but OF others. who, they forget
are somebody else's mothers and
sisters.
Don't walt until man gets into
trouble before lending him helping
hand don't wait until he gets sick
to extend him your sympathy don't
walt until he Is dead to speak in eulos
~ OF him. Strive to make him hap-
py as he walks down the pathway of
life, then you win have done some
good. but II you wait until he dies,
your helping hand. your sympathy
and your ehlogies will avail him noth-
ing as he plunges into the Great I'm
known.
Tho young woman who keeps her
hands white at the expense OF her
mother. who performs the household
duties, is never likely to astonlsh peo-
Pile with her order and cleanliness
when she gets n home OF her own.
Neither is the young man who de-
Ponds on his father for the necessar-
les OF life and the good clothes which
he wears. apt TO set a very large por-
ton OF the world afire.
There are great manYzth1ngs IN
this world that we are not sure OF
but there 10 one thing we may be sure
of-~-"Be sure your sins will find you
out"
All that the wife can Go will not
mako the home an agreeable one,
Neither can wife be happy with a
husband who is addicted TO finding
fault with his bread and butter. ahe
may try ever 80 hard to please him,
YET when he sits down to meals. she
ton OF the food will not suit his fas-
tidious taste.
BE polite TO your children. Do you
expect them to be Inindful OF your
welfare. TO grow glad at your APP
proach, to bound awy ut your pleas
ure before your request is half spok-
on7 Then. with all your dignity and
authority mingle politeness. Give II
a niche In your household temple.
Only then will you have the true Sc
cret OF sending out into the world
really finished gentlemen and ladies,
We. cannot honor with too deep a
reverence the bone affections; we
cannot cherish them with too much
solicitude, Members Of the home cir
Gle lose. nothing by being polite and
kind to one another Little children
are such initiative creatures; II the
father shows kincly attention to the
mother, bright eyes VIII see the act
and liz sure to do Jusl like papa.
Every wife ought to know her hus-
bands income and that knowledge
should be the guide OF her domestic
expenses Better is dinner OF herbs
than a stalled OK with hatred therein;
Where a wife makes up her mind To
do her duty in this respect she will
brighten her little home and make Il
place OF perpetual sunshine.
Words OF Kindness do more good
than hard speeches, as the sunbeams.

Take aim before you shoot; other

Don't try to follow ever fashion
