men, and every dollar in his pocket added an inch to his consequence. It was not at all proper for n man of Mr. Thomas Parker's wealth, to be doing nothing else all the days of his life, but holding men's noses. Poh! it was shameful. So away went Tom's razors, down fell the barber's pole, and in its stead was seen a large fancy store. He was now in his glory, and he could be seen daily, dealing out spices and perfumery to ladies and fine gentlemen, who of course gave him plenty of smiles, and little cash. And who cannot live on ladies1 smiles? so thought poor Tom. It was food for his mind, meat for his body, and cash for his pocket. But quarter day came and went, and still Tom got nothing but ladies1 smiles. He sent in bills; the ladies, sweet creature", gave him smiles, the gentlemen promises. Tom owed money, the day of payment was near, but he had not the wherewithal. He made over bin goods to his creditors, and 'shut up shop.1 I met him thc other day, his face was lean and thin, his clothes shabby and ragged. He was employed as journeyman by a barber in the neighborhood. I thought of my grandfather dont cam, your head too high. Charles Smith was mv I in:nm rnmnnn.

A fair offer.- Make a full estimate of all you owe, and all that is owing to you. Reduce the same to note. As fast ns you collect, pay over to those you owe; if you cannot collect, renew your note even year, and get the best securities you cam Go to business diligently, and be industrious. Lose no time; waste no idle moments; be very prudent and economical in all things; discard all pride but that oi acting well; be faithful in your duty to God, by regular and hearty prayer morning and night; attend church and meeting regularly every Sunday, and "do unto all men as you would they should do unto you." If you arc too needy in your own circumstances to give to the poor, do whatever else you have in your power to do for them cheerfully ; but if you can, always help the worthy, poor and utdortuj nate. Pursue this course diligently "no sincerely, for seven years, and if you are not happy, comfoi table and independent in your circumstances, come to me and w ill pay all your debts. Franklin.
