SNAPSHOTS FROM CHINESE

A narrow-minded man resembles a frog in the well. It’s not the wine that makes a man drunk; it’s the man himself. To talk much and arrive nowhere is the same as climbing a tree to catch a fish. A man with a purple nose may be very temperate in drink; only no one will believe it. Do not pull up your stockings in a melon patch or straighten your hat in a peach orchard; any one seeing you inay think you are stealing.—Life.
