Many talk like philosophers, and live like
fools. Neither give to all, nor contend with
fools. No one is SO old that he hopes not for
year of life. Never sign writing till you
have read it, nor drink wine till you have
seen it. Purposing without performing, is
mere fooling. Speak well OF your friend, of
your enemy say nothing. Sit in your place
and none can make you rise. The best
throw of the dice is to throw them away.
The best of the game is, to do ones business
and talk little of it. Three things only are
well done in haste; flying from the plague
escaping quarrcls, and catching fleas. The
more YOU court mean man the stateler he
grows. To believe a business impossible, is
the wav to make it so. The man that is
| cheaply bought costs but salutaton. True
valor is fire; bullying is smoke. Use soft
words and hard arguments. Would you
know the value Of money, SO and borrow
some. When a mans coat is threadbare, it
is easy to pick-a-hnle in it.-Tour looking
glass will tell you what none OF your friends
will. You may know by penny how a
shilling spends. At the gate which snspi-
cion enters love goes out. AS the good man
saith, so say we; but as the good woman
saith, it must be. A little house well filled.
land we'll titled, and little wife well willetl.
An obedent wife commands her husband.
Bare walls make gadding house wive,.
Chuse wife rather by your ear, then your
eye.
