PHILOSOPHY OF THE TATLER
Lots of people act as chief witness
at their own prosecution.
When two fascinating people meet
they usually hate each other.
I Life consists of learning, knowing,
teaching, and then forgetting.
By all means tell people what you
think of them if you don't care what
they think of you.
If women only knew it, sympathy
and cushions nearly always make a
man uncomfortable.
Actors are not the only public char
acters who "make up" when they have
to face the limelight
Think what an amusing time some
people would have if they could see
themselves as others see them.
A man with lots of money to leave
and impecunious heirs need never
feel that no one cares whether he
lives cr dies.

Life is like a moving staircase-one
must always be going forward. It is
a pity, it would be so nice if one
could go back sometimes and pick up
some of the things one dropped be
fore one realized their vaiue.
EGYPTIAN PROVERBS
In "Veiled Mysteries of Egypt," S.
H. Leeder points to the remarkable
faculty of the Egyptians for enriching
their conversation with- proverbs.
Here are some from a long list of ex
amples he gives:
"Man is often an enemy to things of
which he is ill-informed."
"Don't ask any man about his origin;
you can read it in his face."
"If you censure your friend for every
fault he commits there will come a
time when you will have no friend to
censure."
Don't strain at a gnat and swallow
a camel. A processional sword swal
lower died the other day from get
ting a fish bone in his throat
"Knowledge without practice is like
a bow without a string."-Veiled Mys
teries of Egypt, by S. H. Leeder.
ANVIL SPARKS.
A stingy heart never swells with
emotion.
A good experience ?B not a tether to
tie to, but a pointer to progress.
He who borrows trouble is in dan
ger o? borrowing again, and forming
the habit.
The lure of the heights is sometimes
the strongest when they are seen in
the distance.
Man ir the very image of his Father
until he toes into sin so far as to
spoil the likeness. ? "~"
You do not have to be an expert
mathematician to add faith, multiply
joy and divide grief.
If we had no trials, we could not
prove ourselves, and therefore we
could not stand for anything.
