Some Observations.

If being favorite in a race counted for anything there would be no use in running the race. You can do a lot of good in thin world by just making sure that other people won’t have to knock off work to come over and help you out of trouble that you’ve foolishly got into. A woman may be said to be blase when a new hat no longer means anything to her. __ The easiest man in the world to fool is the man who is sure he is too wise to be fooled. A man’s life is like his garden—its success all depends upon the amount of work he puts into it. What a howl there would go up through the land if someone should start a dollar hat store for women. Some husbands must be mighty pool company. At least their wives seem to prefer to spend their evenings at the moving picture shows. Knowing how is worth more money to an employer than fine theories. You can’t keep a good man down, or a bad one up. No man can be happy all the time, but we can all be happier more than we really are.
