MAXIMS.
Beer brings many to their bier. We are rich if we want no more. The shortest day is too. long to waste. We must take all the Bible or none. A good soaman is known in bad weather. A borrower is another name jfor a beggar. ; ■ v A young man idle is an old man needy. Better to bed without supper than rise in debt. Cackling is not laying, and promising is not paying. Dr Diet and Dr Quiet are fine physicians. Gambling is playing in name, but crime in reality. He who wants to dig will find a spade somewhere. . * He who pleased everybody died before he was born. If you have no beef, thank God for beans. It is a great blessing to know our blessings. If money be not thy servant, it will be thy master. If sin be in fashion, let us be out of fashion, If you can't get what you like, like what you get. Make home happy, and you will he happy at home. Many give thanks to men, hut never thank God. Praise God more, and blame neighbours less. Pule your children, or they will rule you. Sin the worst disease, needs the best physician. The world- would be better if you were. We are never right till we are right with God.
