TO BOYS WHO ARE TWENTY-ONE. 4» So you are 21 ? And you stand up clear-eyed, cleanminded; to" look all the world squarely |jin the eye. You are a man 1 ii._ Did you ever think, son, how much it has cost to make a man out of you ? Some one has figured up the cost m I money of rearing a child. He says to bring up a young man to legal age, care for him, and educate him, costs 25,000 dollars. Whicb is a lot of 'money to put into flesn and blood. <' .But that isn't all. You have cost your father many hard knocks and short dinners, and worry and grey streaks, m 'his hair. And your mother—oh,'boy, you will never know I ' You have cost "her days 1 and nights of anxiety and wrinkles m her dear face and heartaches and sacrifices. It has been expensive to grow you. But— If you are what we think you are, you are worth all the cost, and much,-, much more. Be sure of this : While father does not say much but "Hello, son," way down, deep m his tough, staunch heart, he thinks you are the finest ever. And as for the little-mother, she simply cannot keep her love and pride for you out of her eyes. You are a man now. ■.-, .-■ . } And some time you must stepl intd your father's shoes. He wouldriH like 1 you to call him old, but just the same' he isn't as young as he used to be] You see, young man, he has been work-: ing pretty hard for you for more than' twenty years to help you up ! Andalready your mother is. beginning to; lean on you. .. ' ■•■• ; .'. Doesn't that sobe?" you.' Twentyone ? ■■•.■■ . ; Your father has done fairly well, bat you can do better. You may not think so, but he does. He has given you a better chance than he had. In many ways you can begin where, he left off. Ho expects a good deal from you, and that is why he has tried to make a man of you. ''.-.- ---; Don't flinch, boy ! • 1 ' The world will try you out. It will put to the test every fibre m you. ..But. you are made of good stuff. Once the load is fairly strapped on your young shoulders, you will carry it and scarcely feel it—if only there be tho willing and cheerful mind. All hail you on the threshold !• It's high lime you were beginning to nay tho freight. And your back debts to your father and mother. You will pay them, won't you, boy ? Fow shall you pay-them ? By being always and everywhere a man ! .When skinned your nose, and sore] your eyes, • -, ■ | And choked your head and chest like-] wise, ■ j Don't stop to vainly theorise ' On cause obscure; When pain and anguish wring the brow, ' 'Tis time to jump, you will allow; Take ,my advice, and jget it now*— Wwli' Peppermint!
