The father who strives for your corn fort. And toils on from day unto dav, Althongh his steps *ver grow slower, And his dark locks are turning to g ra ? Does any one think of the due bills He's called upon daily to pay— Milliner bills, college bills, doctor bills, There are some kind of bills even day ! Like a patient horse in a tread-mill, He *vorki on from morning till night; I)o-s any one think he is tired - iJoes any one make his home bright ? Is it right, just because he lo< ks troub led, To say he's as cross as a bear 'f Kind words, little acts of kindness, Might banish his burden of care 'Tis for you ho is ever so anxious, He will toil for you while he may live, In return he only asks kindness, And such pay is easy to gi«*e What Shall I do for a Living ? There arc among our readers multi tudes of young men who are asking to <lny, with much solicitude and anxiety, •What shall Ido for a livingr' We do not think there has ever been a time when it was morn difficult to answer this question. Society is divided into two cUsses— the workers and the non workers. The workers art*, again, divided into two classes—those who work with their hands, and those who work with their brains. The latter distinction i» not ns clearly marked as the former, for man* ual toil is generalty supplemented by some activity of tho mind, avd mental lobor by a certain amount of bodily ex ercise. The man who hammers stones mu-t use bin judgment in order to strike the right place ; and the man who hammers his brains must use his hands in order to record his thoughts. Iu the choice of a vocation, there are five greitt mistakes to be avoided. The first is crowding into what are ctlled •the professions/ or mercantile life, or so.ne other employment where there is but little manual labor, on the sup position that this must be a c >mpar utively easy life. There are none who work harder than some who are not supposed to work nt all. An ach ing brain may be more trying than a weary ami. The man who handles tools often sings at his work; but tiiere is not much music of this sort in the counting-house where the capitalist weaves the web ami unravels tho knots of * great and complicated business. Some seem to imagine that thoughts come spontaneously, and that when ti clergyman has preached his two serm ons ou Sunday, lie may rest until an other Sanday recurs —that the lawyer, -when he is not engaged in consultation or pleading in court, is duing nothing —nii«i thai the only work of u physi cian consists in driving about unl writing cabalistic prescriptions. The exj>erience of a few woeks in some such lino of life would effectually cure all such delusions. Tho second mistake into which young men are liable to fall— and this is worse thau the first—is that of trying for a place iu some of those branches ot business, where there is a posibility of achieving a great fortune at * stroke, with the strong probability of not making a farthing. This is simply 'running for luck,' with tho prospicta of breaking your nerk in the race. The few who succeed, every one hear# of ; the multitude who fail pass out from ?>ight and are forgotten. The third mistake is that of rushing from the country to the metropolis without any reasontble prospect of finding rwnium rative occupation. If all the groans and sighs which come from the shops and offices, where our clerks, shopmen and book keepers con gregate, could be hoard through our country towns and villages, there would not be the same eagerness to join the crowd who haunt the city's streets. If there be a fair chance of your attaining a comfortable living in any honest way, stay near home, ami build up a sure foundation, even tln.ugb the structure rise but slowly. Wherever and however they may be gin a life, as a guueral tule, men will gravitate to their true level. If it be in you to burnt the narrow bound* which at tirst restricts your »teps, you will 1*? quite certain to do it, sooner or later. The fourth mi«take to he noticed is the prevalent notion that to work with the hands cannot be as honorable a* to work with the brain. It' indeed a man is nothing but a tool or a part of a machine, he canuot expect t<» at elevated position in society. Hut sup pose the band and the head work to gether —as they always will, to some extent, just as soou m you rise out of the region of mere servile toil—how does the matter Hand then r Here is a practical farmer, who is also a student of scientific agriculture, and brings lus knowledge to l>ear on the improvement of land, thy incrr ite of crop*, the per fection of scads, economy in labor—un der his skillful hand barren waists are redeemed, so that the earth will always be more fruitful because he ha* lived and labored, and his culture uiak-s the human race rich as well as his own household—could anyone ask for more honorable employment? Here is a young maehamc, who has learned his trade thoroughly and well, and starting in life as a skilled, accomplished work man, he bring* his mind to the watch ful >tudy of every progress in his work contriving, experimenting, inventing, and eradualiy rising from his intenor position until he becomes a master workman, a contractor, the bead ol a grand establishment— 'saying to this man, g), and Le goeth;'—is not this bptttr and more honorable than to be a SEATTLE, WASHINGTON TERRITORY, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 5, IS7S. feeble advocate at the bar, or an im pecunious. half-starved member of any other leading profession i And, lastly, it is very sad when one finds he has chosen a line of life to which he is not adapted. It works badly, whether the peg is too large or too small for the hole. BLUNT BUT TRUE.— There ii said to J>e a young man in the Missouri pen itentiary whos parents at their death left him a fortune of fifty thousand dollars. There ia where his parents made a fatal mistake. If they had taken the precaution to invest that sum in a small dog and shoot him, and then had simply left the young mau a jaek plaine, or wood taw, with printed in structions how to u*e it, the chances are that, in*-tead of being in the peni tentiary, he would to-day have been gradually, but surely, working his way up to a handsome and honorable old age. Hut ever since the day of Adam and Eve parents have made it a point to toil and struggle all their live*, in order to realize a sufficient suui of money to purchase, when they are dead and gone, their sons each a first-class through ticket to tho devil ; and it is not so much to be wondered at that their sons, reared in vice and idleness, a3 too many ot them are, have no higher am bition than to invest their inheritance m ju«t that Kort of transportation. THE New York communists recently paraded with a banner saying " Bread or Load. " If that's all they want thej can step iuto some North River restau rant and pet both in cue. These fel lows don't want anything cot»t yoa-t, as that is inclined to work.— [Lowell Courier. IT is easy to preach, but when it conns to practicing what you preach - ah ! there's the rub.
