By the Midnight Cow Puncher

A man never saved any money

money from what he saved.
Lay your plans today as if you
we're going to live always, but pre-
pare to die tomorrow. Remem Der,
you are facing death from the time
you were taken from the sacred
temple till the present, and that
there are two roads. Which is
yours?
There are three kinds OF tools
in this world-the natural born
d-m fool who is not responsible
for his acts the fool that has been
fooled by some one else, he is to be
pitied; and the fool who knows
better than to be a fool, but per-
sists in being one because he
thinks it is smart. He has neither
consideration or compassion. He
is despised.
Think three times before you
speak, then speak to yourself as
you were going to speak to the
other fellow and see how it sounds.
Eat what you can pay for and
leave the rest alone, and your stom-

some quarters on the part of persons resid-
