Ere you consult fancy, consult your purse.—F ranklin. * * * * Nothing is cheap which is superfluous, for what one does not need is dear at a penny.—Plutarch. • * • • Take care to be an economist in prosperity; there is no fear of your not being one in adversity.—Zimmerman.
Economy, whether public or private, means the wise management of labour, mainly in three senses: Applying labour rationally, preserving its produce carefully, and distributing its produce seasonably.— Ruskin. The habit of saving is itself an education; it fosters every virtue, teaches selfdenial. cultivates the sense of order, trains to forethought, and so broadens the mind. T. T. Munger.
