A man, whose influence over his nearly
grown children is great, said the other
day:
''Other times, other manners, and
other methods az dealing with children,
you know, In these days the youngsters
are hsrd-boiled propositions, who look
at everything with msterislistic eye.
They haven't an ounce of sentiment, or
romance, OF An illusion concealed in their
whole systems, and they snap their
fingers in the face Of tradition.
Therefore, II is useless TO make the
same appeal 10 them that our parents
made TO us We were taught to believe
/ that our fathers and mothers were
/ fountains of wisdom, and that their
opinions were those OF oracles. Our
children regard US - back numbers,
and our views as curious and amusing
relics Of the past. Our parents talked
! 10 us q great deal about right and
wrong, and doing our duty, and obed-
ience Our children believe In self-deter-
mination, and that their highest duty is 10
! themselveA and they make for them
selves the only laws that they respect.
$50 there is no use in peaching the old
doctrines 70 them, and / don't try it.
Just say TO my boys and girls: Figure
out the results of the thing that you are
thinking Of doing, and see if If pays.
If it does, hop to it. II it doesn't, cut
| il out
They wouldn't take my advice if ]
handed il out TO them in the shape Of
moral precepts, but they accept il when
/ / put it TO them as q business PROPOSE
ton. And the result is the same, for il
Is only the practice Of virtue that pays.
Vice invariably bankrupts every one
who follows it.
'It's the honest merchants who make
fortunes. You never beard OF burglar
leaving a million dollar estate behind
him for bis heirs to fight over. It's the
sober men who have influence in COM
munity, not the FOUNDERS. It's the in
dustrious who succeed, not the loafers
It's the nice, good girls who marry well,
and have beautiful homes, and happy
lives No man wants TO marry the girl
whose skirts are stained with mud Of the
streets.
Its easy enough TO make young
people realize these general platitudes
and if you can once get them to see that
they have q personal application, and tc
figuring on the cost OF the course they
are pursuing, they are pretty apt u

There are many OF us that IT coulc

and sit down and do little balancing
Of our ledger Of life, and find out whethel
it paid us, or not, TO act as we are doing
There are those of us, for instance
who are living beyond our means trying
to keep up with people who have mor'
money than we have. We keep auto
mobiles that we cannot afford. We liv,
