POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Even men who say but little talk too
much.
A genius Is a man who seldom makes
good at it.
Trying to dodge work tires more men
than hard labor.
Haste makes some people waste a lot
Of other peoples time.
Hatred is often the result of know
ing but one side of person.
The less a man thinks of his neigh
Dor the more he admires himself.
Most women are born leaders-and
most men are born followers thereof
The things that come to those who
wait are apt to be stale by the time
they arrive.
Sometimes a man longs for tomorrow
because he is ashamed of what he did
not do today.
Unless you have more dollars than
sense do not expect others to consider
your troubles interesting.
1t pleases the average man more to
have a woman tell him that he is the
first man she ever loved than to have
her tell him the truth.
