Never marry a cross-eyed woman; you can’t tell whether she is going to strike or kick. Neiver do to-day what someone else will do for you to-morrow. If you expect to travel zig-zag, don’t take that long lane that has no turn. Don’t be too good; remember that it is the prodigal son who gets the fatted calf. A woman’s haste is the thief of time, so never go shopping with one when you’re in a hurry. Don’t, throw physic to the doge;.it might poison them. Keep it until moonlight nights and throw it to the cats. Don’t propose before your girl’s little brother. “Little pitchers have big ears,” but more than that, they usually have a mouth to match the ears. If you want a dollar, earn it; if you need a dollar, borrow it; if you are hard up, beg it; but if you want it bad. steal it—that’s bad. Always talk with your mouth, not with your hands, head, or feet, for if you do not— actions speak louder thi n words—folks will have you arrested for disturbing the peace. It’s all very well to say “better is a dinner of greens where love is than a rib roast if hatred there be.” You go for the roast and' maybe the greens will come •on with the other vegetables.—Texas Siftings.
