ADVICE THAT OUR FUTURE MEN SHOULD TAKE.
Hold on to your tongue when you are jast ready to swear, He, or speak harshly. Hold on to your hand when you are about to punch, scratch, steal, or do any impropec act. Hold-on to your foot when you are on the point of kicking, running off from study, or pursuing the path of error, shame, or crime. Hold on to your temper when you are angry, excited, or imposed upon, or others are angry with you. Hold on to your heart when evil associates seek your company, and invite you to join in their mirth, games and revelry. Hold on your name at all times, for it is of more value than gold, high places, or fashionable attire. Hold on to truth, for it will serve you well, and do you good throughout eternity. Hold on to virtue—it is above all price to you at all • times and places.— Exchange,
