CONDENSED PHILOSOPHY

Good flannels and good soldiers do not shrink. New styles are old ones that people have forgotten. Shiftless people are never the ones who worry about it. Too late for the evil of today is the remedy of tomorrow. Every man with a firm will makes the world over to suit himself. Most of our mistakes would never be noticed if we did not call attention to them. A gentleman is a hUrrian being combining a woman’s gentleness and a man’s courage. Don’t refuse to accept crumbs of comfort because they are not whole bakeries of bliss. The rich man who has nothing to do and the poor man who can get nothing to do are to be pitied. When a man goes fishing he may not catch a long string, but he is sure to come home with a long yarn. When a woman plans to do anything out of the ordinary she always wonders what the neighbors will say. Don’t wait for, great opportunities. A' long continuous walk will get you over more ground than a short run.
