 There is a great deal in life worth having if we are not permitted to have it until we work for 1t.
 A chigger in the small of ones back is equal to two anywhere else, because you can't reach it.
 It Is consoling to think that the reason so many mean people get themselves noticed in the world is that, although the good people really outnumber them, they don't attract attention because they are modest.
 A man can stand up in a pulpit and preach all day about the best way to reach heaven but the man who goes out into the streets and helps his fellow man has already found it.

 He struggled amain to keep up with
 the throng- His wife must be pampered, you know: She slipped from life's chalice with a
 laugh and a song, A creature who reveled in show. His salary was hardly sufficient to meet The drains that increased with the
 years And deeming a confession would be in
 discreet He never confided his fears, But hoped that a turn of the wheel
 would restore The sums that he couldn't replace; His money affairs were involved more
 and more, But still they must follow the pace. The shock came at last-ah, the story
 is old; You've heard 1t related I guess. How man lost his honor and a woman
 grew cold, Nor cheered his sad heart in distress. Embezzlement. that was the charge. he was tried, Men said let the law take its course; ]; The sentence was passed when appeal was denied The woman obtained divorce. Now. the theme Isn't pleasant and yet 1t is true. Such cases are daily to see; The man was fool and the woman was
 too,
 And even more guilty than he.
