Ruin is no respector of persons. Your girl is as liable to be met by it as the girl of your neighbor. Ruin, it should be kept in mind, does not overtake any one, for it is not behind, but before. There are two highways plainly marked, and it is only those who travel by the road that leads to ruin who ever reach it. They must go out to meet the destructive thing or they will not find it. So it is not impertinent to ask parents where their daughters are tonight. The news reports have lately been filled with accounts of the doings of a daughter of the rich and a daughter of the poor. One was motherless and the other fatherless, but if the rightful guardian had known where each was every night and seen to it that she was in a safe place, there would have been peace and content In two homes where there is now something very different. A girl i. one of the most precious possessions in the world, and she should be guarded as the king’s chamberlain guards the crown jewels. Those baubles are not sent !|parkling alone upon the streets at night, nor left unprotected in dance halls where greedy fingers may filch them.—Philadelphia Ledger.
