A WORD TO BOYS.

By Mercy Drama

Please don’t kill the birds or rob their nests.
Don’t abuse the cats, but shelter and feed them.
Be kind to the dogs, and give them water.
Don’t jerk, kick, whip, or overwork your horse.
Don’t dog or stone the cows.
Don’t fish or hunt for sport, or use steel or other cruel traps.
Don’t give pain to any creature.
When you see any creature in need, please give it food and water.
When you see any creature abused, don’t fail to earnestly but kindly protest against such abuse.
Be above using tobacco or liquors.
Be above using profane or vulgar language.
Be clean in body and mind.
Always do good and never evil.
These are the ways to be happy and beloved.—Mercy Drama.
