i dont know what to tell you girls to do. mr. martin has told you everything you ought to do, and now i must give you some donts.
there are three things which come to my mind which i consider ecellent advice:
first, girls, dont smoke -- that is, dont smoke to ecess. i am seventy-three and a half years old, and have been smoking seventy-three of them. but i never smoke to ecess -- that is, i smoke in moderation, only one cigar at a time.
second, dont drink -- that is, dont drink to ecess.
third, dont marry -- i mean, to ecess.
honesty is the best policy. that is an old proverb; but you dont want ever to forget it in your journey through life.
