M- tence of young men is laying the
Splfoundation of a useless life. Ten
: to one, when she is' married she
will developes slatternly gossip,
if no greater misfortune befalls

loves home and helps her mother
who wins the model man and be-

reading and striving for the
grace of 'mental culture, com-
mands the respect and esteem of
everybody, while gadding street
ornaments only win the admira-
tion of whose attention isttot
worth haying.
