WISE SAWS

Keeping up appearances is not folly when it means a clean collar. 1 A hot-headed, man |s usually sorry for his outbreaks and spare us from one who isn’t. Trouble and opportunity sometimes arrive at the front door arm in arm; and they Introduce one another to yog. Perspicacious people guess your secrot, and being perspicacious they do not embarrass you by letting you know it. Nature designed the poinsettia on the same day she made the Cattleya orchid and she devoted 23 hours and 50 minutes to the orchid. When one is young be makes friends recklessly and is selaom sorry for it; when he is older he is more discreet and he wishes he wasn’t. To let it be known that one has given in a good cause does not lessen the value of one’s gift. It may influence others to contribute.
