nine,'' says poor Richard. This is good hint at
the economy Of labor. Economy in all other respects
Il matter just worthy of the study Of all classes
Of people The economical man always grows rich;
he can't help 1t. The improEdent man always grows
poor; he can't help 10 either. And remember, too

honest qualification.
