Does Not Hold Good Always.

“There's nothing like perseverance; it wins out in the long run.” "Not always; did you ever see a hen on a porcelain egg?”—Brooklyn Life. A father recently overheard his young son use a word he did not approve, nml calling the child to him said: “My son, if you will promise me never to use that word again. I’ll give you a silver dime.” The little fellow promised, and true to his word refrained. About a week later he went to his father and said: "Papa, I’ve learned a new word worth fifty cents.”

When you begin to tell your troubles to n man he nearly always Interrupts you for the purpose of telling you Ills.
