Foolish spending is the father of

Foolish spending is the father of
poverty. Do not be ashamed of
work. Work for the best wages
or salary you can get, but work
for half price rather than be idle.
BE your own master, and do not
let society and fashion swallow up
your individuality. Compel the
selfish body to spare something
for profits saved. Be stingy to
your own appetite, be merciful
to mothers necessities. Help all
others, and ask not help for your
self. Be too proud to be lazy too
proud to give up without conquer
ing every difficulty; too proud
to wear coat you cannot pay for;
too proud to be in company you
cannot keep up with in expenses,
too proud to lie, or steal, or cheat;
too proud to be stingy.
