COMFORT AND SOBRIETY.

Let me here give you a few maxims to commit to memory:----

Avoid and shun the sources of misery.

Be sure not to _indulge_ your appetite.

Strong drink excites a person to do wrong.

Remember you are never out of temptation.

A _life of virtue and temperence_ will secure to you money and time;
will give you health, and prosperity, peace, character, respect, and
usefulness.
