Oil surety.
Ought ft man ever go surety for an
other? Wbyuot? It is a most friendly
»cU If prudently done, it m»J be <*
most eminent benefit to your neighbor.
It gives him the benefit of yonr repute
U‘ou when he is not known. It lends
him your credit, where his is not suf
ficient. It pots him in funds, which
otherwise he could not command. Bock
service to a friend is generous and some
times even noble. No better use can be
of one’s money than to help a true
friend. We are commanded to “re
member those in bonds as bound with
them.’’ To be sure, this was originally
applied to bonds of a different kind,
but with not a whit more propriety than
to peeuniary bond*. A roan who, bj a
few thousand dollars, can save his friend,
his family, from bankmpey and want,
could hardly spend bis money in s
manner which, all his life long, be

But, there are certain moral and
prudential considerations which should
always be borne in mind in going snr
etj for a friend. You slnuld alwats
^ske up your minds l.ow much you a e
willing to give aw*v, a soluiely, lor
that friend whom you indorse. F<»r to
blunder can Is* worse than to indorse
on the supposition that you will not
have to pay. Never indoise without
saving to yourself. ‘This may «ome
round on mi*. I rosy have to pay it ;
and, if it does come to that, I am aide
and witling.* Nmt* out of t**n of the fa.
la! mistakes made by bondsmen arise
form taking the opposite course to this
They consider the act of in orsing a
friend’s paper as a mere commercial
from. ‘There is no risk 1 shall not
have it to pay. He is abundantly ab ••
to take oare of bia paper. I shall lie p
him without harming mvsetf, and he is a
alingv man who will not do that. Thi
is the calculation on which a man binds
himself to pay a friend’s debts in case
the friend cannot pay them liitnse-f. Rut
how do these things turn out ? One
need not go far to ascertain! Every
village has an illustration. The bor
rower was more involved than you sup
E osed, or, perhaps, than he himself
new, and his creditors closed on him,
and wound i im up, and were ovei joyed
to find su h a good name as yours on
bis paper. Or, the sanguine scheme on
ah ch be bad wntuied, which seemed
sure of success, without possibility ot
failure, suddenly, like a loaded wagon,
slipped off a wheel and upset in the
dirt!
Or, just as everything was at the
po ut of success, your Iriend sickened
and could not look after his affairs,
some critical matter was neglected, or
some tiishonesl person stepped in the
crooked matters ; your frienil died, the
estate went into the executors hands
for settlement, was badly managed,
warped and crooked, and final y turned
out insolvent
And wbat became * f you ? Why,you
were wroth ! In an hour you find you-
self confronted with a debt that sweep,
away jour house, your faim, your litile
suin' in bank, and leaves you where you
began just twenty-five years ago, wnb
this difference ; That then you had only
yourself to provide for, and now you
nave a wife and eight children. Then
.you -were twenty five years old, and
life all before you, and now you are fit
ty years old and lite pretty much all
behind you ! Y-rn have given away yom
-children's bread. Yon have not saved
jour friend, but have ruined yonrselt !
Perhaps your iriend has settled on bis
wife a small piooerty. So much the
better for her, if he had. Of course
she will divide with you, since it was
to save her husband that yon were ruin
ed. But, if she will not (and human
nature is made up of shaky stuff), and
her children go to school while youis
stay at home ; amt if they live in a com
fortable house, pleasnty furnisb«d. while
you ar« hiring a few rooms iu the cheap
est quarter of the town, then I suspect
that you will chew the cud of a great
inanv bitter r*flections.
When it i« too Isle you will be very
wise. You will say to yourself, it may
be, A man is a fool who signs for any
larger sum than he can conveniently
nay. Amen, sav I.
B-fore a man puts his nam« down on
-Mother's paper, he should ask himself.
* Am I willing to give this person as
much roo-ev as l sign for? Amen asv
