"Good books, like good friends, are
hw and chosen; the more select, the
mpore enjoyable," and to this wise quota.
tiho we will add, "thle more profitable."
, Our friendships ltfluence our charactet
very strangely. The thought, speech
. a.d manner, especially of young people,
take rcolor from their associates. 8o it
is a matter of serious consideration that
youe, my young friend, should have )yuz
lfriends "few ad chosen."
But I wish to say a word Junst now
more particularly about your resding.
4 book may have even more Infuence
over as than a living presenc. 8ensly
It cannot be necessary to sek Ife
about Impure or ammoral books ot
papers. 1 cannot bleises that any on
who reads a Christisa paper would tol
orate that which would bring a blash of
shame to the eheok if it were known.
Bat 1 me say, if the temptatlon to

Sthe Curse of Australla.
rk- The colony of New South Wales It
ly cursed with drink. The Sydney :orn
be ing Herald says:
n1d Without being either a fool or fanat- .
Ic, one cannot help seeing somethIug
weird hi the annual drink bill of Now 4
War South Wales. Here we have, for about 4
U a million of people, say, a total of from
four to five millions of money spent ev
ery year in what is at least not a necoe
oary of life. That It brings comfort of
ten and solace sometimes tot the ills of
the life may be freely admitted. But
whether the comfort is not balanced by
the discomfort, and that solace by the
misery it brings, is hardly to be die
peteud.
One thing we do know. that for what
l general fan it give& t muat honestly be
aid that it is the onuse of more individ
hanal, domestic and social tronble than all
other factors of human enjoyment, and
that,.making every allowance for the
w e good itdoes a giving industrial employ
sn c met ad in raising revenue, the colony
rnroarld s a whole be happier sad more
hir ps if there were no such thing
Saa glase of brandy or a potof beer in
one New S)uth Wales. This ean be said
to with ertainty, without the fatutest
ho t raceof featici5sa. It is the cause of
, most ef the violence, the greater pert of
* t the Inanity, a l.trgo share of the ember
e aMlenent and the greater part of the
med poverty with which the country Is
es troumbled. And without it we could di-.
one pen with half the gaola and most of
you the police, and! the madhouse woeld
have aesrl nothing to do.
