A Splendid Capital.

Rev. Hugh Stowell Brown says that there are three things that a young man wants to begin the world with; sound health, sound sense, and a sound character. He adds: “I do not pity you because you have no money; you must go and make it. Don’t say you cannot. If you say this, then away with you to the union workhouse; you are not the man to fight the battle of life. I don’t pity you because you have no friends to patronize you. Patronage! be your own patron! Friendless as you seem, you have three very powerful friends—your health, your intelligence, and your character; and as long as you keep on good terms with these, you are all right—you may—you must—succeed.”
