George D. Prentice's Advice to a
Young Man.
To a 3'oung man away from homo,
forlorn and friendless, in a great
city, the hours of peril,are those be-
tween sunset and bedtime, for the
moon and Btars boo more evil in a
single hour than the sun in a whole
day's circuit. The poets vision of
the evening are all composed ol
tender and soothing images. They
bring the wanderer to his homo, the
child to his mother's arms, the ox to
his stall and the weary laboror to
his rest. But to tho gentle-hearted
youth who is thrown upon the rocks
of the city, and stands homeless
o mid a thousand homes, the approach
of evening brings with it an aching
sense of loneliness and desolation
which comes down upon the
spirit liUo daikness upon the earth.
In this mood his best impulses be-
.como a snare to him, and he i« lea
astray because he is social, sympa-
thetic and warm hearted, If there
is a young man thus circumstanced
within tuo sound ot m}- voice, let me
soy to him that books are trionds to
the friendless and a library is a home
to the homeles*. A tuste for road-
lug will always carry you to con-
Verso with men w o will influence
you with their wisdom and charm
you with their witj who A'ill soothe
you when fretted, refresh you when
Wearj, council you when perplexed
and sympathize with you at a'l
times. 35vil spirits in tho middle
nges were exorcised and diiven aw:ty
by bell, book and candle, and yuu
want tv\-o of these agents—the book

And the blackest of clouds obscure the

Hut hard to walk on the slanting deck
Of a ship that's suil'ered a total wreck.
'Tis ensy to say: 'Forget; forgive!"
We hear it often each day we live;
A Christian's duty—but oh. how lew
But find it a dililc'ult tiling to do!"
'Tl« easy to say another might
Have conquered in an unequal fight;
Hut were we fated his foes to meet
We might have suffered a worse defeat.
'Tis ensy to say: "I know how far
I can go" in folly's descending car;
Hut easily, easily down we drop
Until death gives the command to stop.
'Tis easy to say we would not yield
A single point on the battle Held :
Hut though a hero we may ndmire,
The courage with us may not stand lire.
Brave words are easy enough to say;
Brave deeds, however, will win the'day;
And the stoutest heart may its owner
fail,
Though well protected by coat of mail.
If weak or strong, when put to the test,
lie does his duty who does Ids best,
And finds ench day—it is sad but true—
That easy to say lias been hard to do.

THE DA1LY-
A Dangerous Counterfeit.
A most dangerous counterfeit of
tho silver dollar is reported from tho
west. It has tho cxact weight, ring
and appearance of the genuine, and
its outer coating resists tho acid
test. Tho wondor is that men cap-
able of such artistic work should
take tho trouble to make a counter
feit at all,-when they can make
money as fast as anj-body need want
meroly by manufacturing the gotiu-
ino dollar. If they can so exactly
reproduce the exterior of the silver
dollar, why not fill it with silver ?
Do just what tho United States is
dishonest enough to do—buy eighty-
four cents worth of silver slamp it
a dollar, and not sixteen cents pro-
fit on every coin passed. That
would be rcduetio ad absurdum of
our present coinage swindle, and
the skillful coiners could snap tbeir
fingers at the detectives. Still there
would bo one troub'o. Tne govern-
ment can't get people to take the
genuine eighty four cent dollars out
of its vaults. Perhaps the counter-
feiters might have equal trouble,
even if thoy made as honest a coin.
