SAM’S HORN BLASTS

Warala* Vote* Calling: the Wicked to Repentance.

Big men have been mistaken about vital things about as soften as little ones. If it were not for the help he gets from the loafer the devil would have been ready to quit long ago.

We often get to a good place over a bad road. A bird with bright plumage often has very black feet. In the school of experience there are no vacations or holidays. Sin is always a dirty thing, no matter how clean the sinner may look. The great test of character is not what it ean do, but what it can bear. Nothing can strengthen a man’s heart like little arms around his neck. . The devil seldom loses anything when the preacher gets an easy place. The man who never grows is very small, no matter how big he was at birth. * The most of us have had some experience in straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel. Holding a dollar within an inch of a man’s nose will often make him as blind as putting his eyes out. The real purpose of education is to make a worm big enough and strong enough to thrash-a mountain.
