This is an original 1924 two-color cover for The Youth's Companion magazine, December 4, 1924, that features a quote by Caleb Peaslee that reads; "If you want to git a good habit, you might's well make up your mind to git rid of a bad one, you can't harbor 'em both at the same time. Take a bull-thistle growing alongside a blade of wheat - same ground, same sun and wet and everything - the bull-thistle'll grow two inches to the wheat's one and in the end 'ill choke it out and kill it."
