A beautiful woman needs no letter of
introduction.
A good natured friend is sometimes an
enemy in disguise
Never judge a mans character by one
good or bad action
The longer a man is married the less
his wife expects Of him
A woman doesn't have to be good
looking in order to look good.
What most people need is less good
advice and more good examples
The pleasure of doing good is the one
pleasure that never wears out
A wise man thinks more than he talks
and fool talks more than he thinks

to eat the hen that scratches over your
grave"
Never judge a mans courage by the
tone Of his voice when speaking to the
office boy Wait until you hear him adj

insanity is said to be more prevalent
in all countries among the unmarried
than among the married. This should
indicate that marriage brings people to
their senses
We believe that the average dying wo-
man worries more about the condition.
of the house she is leaving than about
her heavenly home.
When a girl pronoupces the Filipino
words as glibly as IL she had found
them in her primer, that is one sign that
she has steady in the Philippines
Why is it that when a woman dies it
Is taken for granted that she has gone
to her reward, and when man who
dies that he has gone to his punishment
A man has good enough luck in mar
rying off his girls if their steady lovers
begin calling in spring and they marry
off in fail, before the fuel season begins.
There is at least this to be said to the
credit of whisky: It never looks you Up:
it viii let you alone. if you let it alone.
Gossip hunts you up. whether you are in
the game or not.

About all boy is good for until he

An Atchison woman has actually been
married four times, and three of her
husbands are living. She is said to be a
terror to a husband. but to a lover she
has a cooling voice that lures the best of
