into some friendships to make them
last.
A man has reached the limit of self
importance when he is satisfied with
his own society
BY praising men and fiattering
women one can acquire many fair

The woman who says that all men

ence she would like to forget.
That workman who takes a real in.
terest in his work doesn't have TO

Did you ever notice what a lot of
