WISE WORDS.

Too many idealists are shy OF
ideas.
There's no fool like the one who
thinks he is wise.
The old bachelor is naturally a man
with single idea.
How seldom beauty and common
sense are ladled out together.
A sick man need not expect a cure
at the hands of a manicure.
Convicts are the only people who
DO not believe in their convictions.
Many a man imagines he makes a
hit every time he strikes an attitude,
How a small man does enjoy going
around with a big chip on his shout
der.
A man may be justified in wearing
long whiskers if his wife buys his
neckties.
A young widow has a cute way Of
pretending she believes all men are
angels,
A morallst may be a person who
goes around with a searchlight look
ing for things TO be shocked at,
II another woman's husband goes
wrong a woman says he's a brute. "
II it's her own husband she says he's
"only human"
What we know about ourselves is
mostly off color.
No man has ever failed in business
for lack of advice.
Those on the inside of a deal can
see only the bright side,
And the way of the transgressor is
sometimes hard to beat.
Lots of people expect applause ev'
cry time they do their duty.
Isn't it about time to work up a
little indignation against the ice
trust?
Near actors are all right in theiI
way, but give us the old fashioned
country hams.
