He was very useful in the church, and though he bad to sur mount many difficulties in his way r hrough college aud the seminary, yet be has often said that be would not wish to be auy thing else than a minister. The same determination of pur pose and industrious habits that John exercised, will suit auy other boy in auy other occupation. If a boy determiues to le u merchant, be must devote bis energies to that business, and not stand idly leaning against a counter, or at the store door, gazing about, if he wants to be a lawyer, he must study hard while youug, and master ail the diffi cult terms of law, so as to thorough ly understand the profesqjnu.' If a mechanic, be must still be energetic aud iudustrious. Laziness never produces pood fruit, and the path of iudolence is not the road to fortuue. The rich meu of the world are those who have been iudustrious and saviug boys. Theu they became eu ergetic, iudustrious meu, uud so also tbe great orators of tbe world a ere iudustrious, hard students, who ruse early aud sat up lute to fill their minds with the thoughts of great scholars and wise men. Sometimes 1 see boys who dou't seem to care whether they kuow tbeir lessons or uot. Play is much more to their taste than their stud ies. There is ail old proverb that says the boy who does nothing but play, will uever be anything more than a plaything. Now that tbe new year is commencing, I hope that the boys who read this story will resolve that this year they will study bard, and try to see how much irapruv*. meut they can make. B.
