 Most girls allow their ideals to de- velop into mere husbands.
 Perhaps all the world loves 8 lover because pity is akin to love.
 It's easy enough to be generous to fault, if it's your own fault.
 Of two evils the optimist chooses neither, the pessimist both.
 Laughter is the wine of life, but a good bit of it Is win ordinaire.
 Unfortunately the man higher up isn't always worthy of his hire.
 Don't waste your time worrying about the time you have wasted.
 No labor union has ever been or ganized that could regulate the wages of sin.
 A man can always pocket his pride, but woman. who generally has more pride, is handicapped. We have a theory that wild flowers get that way by trying to pronounce their botanical names. Many a big man has just as small thoughts as has the elephant whose mind is centered on a peanut. Lots of people who complain that they don't get all they deserve should really congratulate themselves.
 Prosperity has ruined many man, but if fellow is going to be ruined at all, that is undoubtedly the pleasantest way.

 It is the man with initiative who forges to the front. The world Is look ing for leaders.
 Business is seeking men who have the ability and judgment to go ahead and blaze the way for others.
 If you are content to take the path beaten smooth by hundreds who have preceded, you will remain follower.
 You may make mistakes. of course; all men who lead make mistakes, but even your mistakes are valuable. Ev- cry successful man has made some errors.
 Be original. Try to do things in a different and better way than other men in the same line. Work out a plan; consider it from all angles; then give it a trial-not a half-hearted one, but one backed with all the vigor you possess.
