ADVICE TO BOYS.

Do Not Express an Opinion Until Ton Have Carefully Considered the Sutject

It is on old saying among schoolboys and college men that the fellow who keeps his mouth shut is always the big man that he who deliberately says little quickly wins for himself the name for wisdom. Such statements are quite as true in the outer world to a certain degree as they are in college and school. The pith of the matter is that, if in any way you arrive at a position of any importance, the less you talk to^very one the more credit you receive fdf care, for thoughtfulness, for sound, well considered opinions. Here is nothing which urges a boy to have no opinions or never express them, and, in fact, this "wise silence" at school and college as often perhaps covers up an empty mind as it does the wisdom of Solomon.

There is, however, a good rule to follow, which may be given briefly, to the effect that it is well to say little until you have thoroughly made up your mind, and then not to hesitate in your statements. The temptation of tho average man is to express some opinion at once, but if that is changed later the full force of the final opinion is lost.

Let others do the wrangling. Your opinion will have all the more influence if you come out strong with it at the close of the discussion, when not c:ily are the others consicfcrtibly in doubt as to what they do want, but yo have also had the advantage of hearing many sides of the case.

That is to say, that in your daily behavior toward the others in school it is well to keep your "talk" in reserve. 1c is a habit easily acquired aud one that iu the end works both ways. It adds both to the value of your advice, because the advice is better considered, and it gives the advice an added valuo so far as others are concerned, because when you only say a little that little has the more consideration.—Harper's Round Table

George III.

A small party is assembled in a room at Windsor round Mrs. Delaney, an old lady whose goodness and amiability have made her a great favorite with virtuous and pious royalty. One of them, Miss Burney, is an authoress of repute. The door opens, and there enters a large man in black, with a star upon his breast. Profound sensation is caused by his appearance, and the party, in compliance with a curious etiquette, show their awful sense of present royalty by huddling up to the walL The king talks affectionately to the good old lady, and with playful appropriateness to her erary friend, whose novels he has rea 1 with interest He has a trick of sa~ ing, "What, what, what," but otherwise, unless the report of his conversation has been dressed, he talks not ill.

He has read Voltaire and Rousseau. Voltaire, he owns, he thinks a monster, {is a religious man, without being a great bigot, well might Rousseau he dislikes less iind had given him a pension. He reads the newspapers, though they are far from courtly. He is fond of plays and criticises the comedies of his time, lie has the misfortune to let fall the remark to a lady who would record it that "a great part of Shakespeare is si 1 stuff, only you must not say 60. But so thought Voltaire and all tho devotees of the classical rules.

Filled the Prescription.

De Quincey tells the story somewhere, cf a party of Englishmen who, finding themselves in Paris on Christmas day and being bound to have plum pudding for dinner, were unable to find a cook able to prepare the dish in orthodox fashion. Conferences with several distinguished chefs disclosed nothing but the most astounding Gallic ignorance of the British national dish.

This was, of course, before the days of the "petite vitesse," which broughtacross the channel so opportunely tor Tally and Little Billee and the Laird their Christmas dinner so somethin? had to be done.

One of the Englishmen happened be a doctor and also an amateur cook. He had in his possession a recipe for plum pudding, warranted orthodox. This, with some labor, aud doubting much of his ultimate success, he rcduceo to the terms of a prescription and sen', to an apothcc ^ry. Les trois Angliehc* then sat down to dinner and awaited results.

Sure enough, at the proper stage oi tho feast, when the plum pudding was due, entered the apothecary, in black silk stockings and small clothes, according to the custom of the day, aud wearing a sword. Behind him caiae his assistant, bearing aloft tho prescription. It was portVct iu every detail, even to the blazing halo of brandy.

It is related that when the man of drugs realized the joke that had been played upr-j him, he was for putting his sword tr -M her than ornamental uses. But one tast of his own^nedicine served to placate him and he sat at tho feasJ with his English friends.

She Did.
