It is an old saying that if a younir man saves his first SI,000 he will get rich?that is so often in nine cases out )f ten?yes if he will save his first $100 lie will succeed and any young man ran save that much in a year if he will let whiskey and tobacco and society girls alone. Society will keep u poor young man poor. I am thinking now i)f a married man who is bowed down with debt while his family is trying to keep on the ragged edge of society. A milliner makes their clothes, and they tire obliged to ride in a carriage wliei) they go visiting. Such people are the talk of the town and they don't know it. There are nice young men in every town who have been clerking for.years unci haven't laid up a dollar. They must take to every show that comes along, and spend $5 on every dance, for those who dance must pay the tiddler. Capital is very particular these days. When capital wants a young man it looks around for who doesn't smoke drink are gamble?one who saves his money and don't run about every uignt. Family influence isn't worth a cent now. A young man stands on his own merits, his habits, his associations. Young men there is a blue hook in every town and your name is on it. lint there is no excuse for a young mail failing to get employment in this blessed country. If he does, is is his own fault. I flie can't get rich fast he can slow, if he began young and worked hard and behaved well he will accumulate nlenty for his old age. Old age wants money. It wants rt*t and should have it. "Otium cum digitate." is the Latin for dignified leisure. Jiut 1 heard) Judge I'nderwood say it meant "rest I comes afterdigging." Dig first and rest afterward. Old age don't want to gut up on a cold winter morning and make! tires and cook the breakfast. These would lie more jiower in thechurch if there were not so ni'iny peo-j pie who want to he one of a hunch J like a stick of asparagus. Be willing toj he yourself, and you will be sure to he somebody God cau use. To be always intendingto live a new' life, hut never to find time to set about it?this is as if a man should put oil' eating and drinking and sleeping from one night to another, till he is starved and destroyed. !

How frequently one hears this expression from the(lips of^a boy or girl when asked to render some simple service. Tho weak parent accepts the excuse and educates the child to become a slave to his whims and caprices. "Harry, you must cscort your sister to prayer-meeting tonight," remarked a* mother belonging to this class. "I don't feel like it," whined the boy, and he was allowed to have his own way in the matter. No wonder that as a man he is utterly lacking in moral backbone aud succeeds in nothing which he undertakes. One good way to overcome this tonilun/ii' u'iiinli nil children hnvv tn A LVUUV/UVJ y ..i.iVt. ? ? greater or less degree, is to assign them deliuite tasks and insist upon their being performed regardless of "feelings." Years ago a little girl was compelled by her mother to carry the Boston Recorder every Sunday afternoon to a poor neighbor. Through rain and and shine, in summer's heat and winter's cold, whether in the mood for it or not, this service was never intermitted, and it proved to be one of the strongest formative influences of childhood. The girl became a woman of remarkable executive ability, and she attributed it largely to the mother, who made her do things even if she did not "Feel like it." Nn<l Sport. T" A gentleman stood in front of a furrier's store contemplating the seal gar-: nients that filied the windows. "1 never see a sealskin coat," lie said, "that I am not reminded of a day I I passed among the seal-killers." Then he told of joining an expedition i when lie was a young man, and going I out for the sport of seal-killing. They I knocked the pretty creatures on the head. The seals were so tame, aflec 1 I w 1 ton I ImCC tllJlf U'llPM fill*! hunters lauded they crowded round them like dogs, making their little friendly hark, and fawing upon the murderous hands that proceeded t<> stretch them as bloody corpses upon the beach. The man related how sick at heart he got, and how he tried to gut away from tliis massacre of the innocents. To this day the sight of a sealskin coat recalls the wretched sensation he then experienced. Tnis reminds us of Gilbert While, of Selborne, when he first shot a lapwing, and the remorse he fe.t when the bird dipped its bill in its mortal wound and looked up into his face. Temper lluskin in a letter to young girls says : "Keep aosolute calm of temper under all circumstances, receiving the thing'that is provoking or disagreeable to you as coming directly from Christ's hand ; and the more it is like to provoke you, thank Him tor it the more, as a young soldier would his general 111!

And remember it does not in the least matter what happens to yon?whether a clumsy school-fellow teais your dress or a shrewd one lauuhst at you, or the governess doesn't uudeistuml you. The one thing needful is that none of tho-e things should vex you. * * * Say to yourself each morning, just after your prayers, 'Whoso forsaketh not all that he hath cannot be My disciple.' This is exactly and completely true, meaning that you are to give all you have to Christ to take eare of for you. Then, if lie doesn't take cure of it, of course you know it wasn't wor.th any thing. And if he takes any thing from you, you know you are better without it. Von will not, indeed, at you rage have to give up houses and lands or boats or nets; but you may, perhaps, break your favorite tea-cup or lose your favorite thimble, and might be vexed about it but for this second Saint (Jeorge's precept." \ v> - . . - '' bb ?????
