He who can at all times sacri.
fice pleasure to duty, approaches

Uneasy lies the head that wears

He who Furnishes for revenge

By ignorance we make mis-
takes-and by mistakes we learn.
The greatest takers are always

There's nothing agrees worse

Better fare hard with good men

No friend Is a friend until he

None is to be deemed free who

his crop Of long staple cotton.
He got a fabulous price for it,
for cotton was at the highest

to make him comparatively in

SAP AND SALT
BY Bert Moses

When anything belongs to every
body, nobody takes care of it.
If you don't mix your knowledge
with sense, 1t won't do you much
good.
The question Is not what did
you do yesterday" but What are
you doing today?"
A desire for an auto generally
overcomes a desire for leaving your
money in the bank.
It requires a high percentage of
optimism for a husband to help
with the supper dishes and enjoy it.
Hez Heck says: Sympathy is
fine up to the pint where it gifts
soft and mushy."
