BRAIN LEAKS.
(From Bryan’s Commoner:)
Giving a shirtless man a collar
is not philanthropy.
A man is rich when he has
what he really needs.
The hardest way to earn a living
is to hunt for an easy job.
Only a fool seeks temptation in
order to prove his strength.
A lot of men who think they
are independent are only contrary.
The best way to “get even”
with your enemies is to help your
friends.
Bad breath is a stumbling block
for a great many men who want
to be good Christians.
The men who see the little
things and do them, are the men
who accomplish great results.
If you put nothing into life you
will always meet with disappoint
ment in trying to get something
i out of it.
Oppportunity knocks at every
man’s door, but a lot of men are
so busy doing a little “knocking”
themselves that they fail to hear
