III is TRUE THAT

Hard cash that comes easy soon
melts away.
But contentment and ambition have
nothing in common.
Only those who don't need your ad-
vice are willing to take it.
No man ever acquired lasting
brand of popularity by knocking.
A married mans dollars won't last
long unless his wife has sense.
The path to success is paved with
good intentions that were carried out.
No man ever loved certain woman.
They are all more or less uncertain.
Sweet are the uses of audacity-
when a brave young man and kiss
able girl meet.
A wise man may not know much, but
he is wise enough to keep others from
knowing 1t.
Yet millionaire can say more in
ten words than penhiless man can
in ten thousand.
The successful man roots while his
unsuccessful brother stands around
and squeals.
A man smokes or drinks because
he wants It, but If he loves it's be.
cause some woman prefers it.
One stands before mirror openly,
the other on the sly. That's the differ
ence between woman and man.
