Be Economical. • ;The'man who, commences early' life to practice economy, is: always a successful man. Those who take care of cents soon have doll lats. The small, uatiece. , ..e,ary expenditures are What keep so many men poor, and at toil. all' . their lives. It is really . astonishing .to find. how few men and.wiimeit think it a duty to be economical when. the world goes snioothly and prosperou , ly With them. Whilek it .is I rare to find a person who would- not - . terh 'to be rich, it is easy folind pemns with.ahun 11ant opportunitiesor - Ato will pot strive to be independent: and prepared for -the little vicis , Situdff. of life. • • • • I • • • Some love display, and will .even run. into ,debt to gratify their foolish, passions. Others - go on the principle } if living . while they can,. and banish all thotthts of bad times, sickness or old age. Others : again, contract bad .or expensive habits, and rather than make an at tempt to , •et, rid of them, submit to their tyra ny,' and le.i.elve themselves with a plea that they are neee'ssary to the full enjoyment of life. But the full enjoyment of life consists• inliVing wisely and rationally. 1 Tratisient plosures can be purchased too dearly,. and , . • for hours of rioutous. enjoyment,ldays and m o nths of r.lisery • and •pain • tatty be the fruits.' .

No one may • anticipate • that 'his path through life will' be lighted by continual sunshine. This year ma*. be a pro4)erous one, the next may be thy: reverse. The mechanic who.now has ' abundant "work land good wa ges cannot tell whether these will: or not be permanent.: He knows not , how . soon his • health may fail, and his little family be with , 1 out a provider.
