Henry Ward Beecher well says, “Idle ness is begun when labor is a burden rnd industry a bondage, aDd if you are idle you are on the road to ruin, and there are few stopping places upon it.” The bone and sinew of our land are not those who live in idleness, but those who do things. Not the dude, or the sport, or the man in the limelight, but the man who works. Such men together with the women, who are too busy with household and religious duties, to have time for bridge and such like, are they who make our country what it is, the happiest, best and most prosperous country of the world. Don’t loaf on the streets. You had better be engaged each day in rolling a stone up hill and letting it roll down again, than doing nothing. Such exercise will give you good muscle and will iu time, rest assured, bring you to a job. Wanted a Boy.
