PRES A RET EES
Young Man Afraid-of-his-Work.
No, my dear young man, this
‘Sourney of life” does.not lie all. the
way through ‘verdant ‘valleys .and
flowery meadows. The way is not
thronged with generous hearted
friehds and rich uncles to die and
leave you their money. :
It is not. always bright with the
sunlight of pleasure. You will not
find a bed of roses to recline on every time you are weary. Don’t expect it, or you will be very likely to
be disappointed. You will find that
about the time the path gets past
the school-house it switches off into
some rather rough country. You
will very probably find some rough
hills to climb and some deep gullies
to cross; Thé briars will tear your
nice clothes, and the stones will
wear out your fine boots, and you
will have blisteredheels and stone
bruises in plenty before .you get
through.
You will find storms too—storms
that will snatch you bald-headed, as
like as not, or powder your hair with
the white dust of-the-highway.
There is only way to avoid
allthis, That is to sit down, a
whining beggar by the wayside,
despised ‘and self-despising. But if
you are going through, you must
brace yourself up for hard climbing.
You will find plenty of roses by the
way, but they grow among thorns,
and if you would gather them you
must not he afraid of a few scratches.
There are plenty of pure springs and
cool fountains too, but they flow
from the mountain side and you
must climb to them. :
All the fruits worth having are
near the top of the trees. You cau
have your game suppers and quail
on toast too;-but the game is wild,
and the birds roosts high, and you
can’t put salt on their tails to catch
them. You can have all this, we
say, but just like as not when you
get it you’ll have no teeth to chew it
with, so you mustn’t build too high
un that,
Yes, yonng man, the glaciers of
life are hard to climb aad you'll nevermake the trip without a guide.
The name of the guide is ‘Work.’
Tie yourself to him, young man, and
he'll pull you throagh allright. He
is rough and rugged, as all moun-taineers are, but don’t be afraid of
him on that account. Don’t despise
his homely garments. He is a brave
true hearted fellow, who has led
thousands safely through, and will
do the same for you, if you trust
him.

not be out of place to mention the
fact that Mr. Burns has made one of

We understand that Mr. Hanley
has made a purchase of some of the
most expensive straight whisky that
has ever come into the county.John L. Burns, the celebrated agent
for “Davenport,” has been most
fortunate in making such a fine sale
