MORE OR LESS TRl E One cuff on the wrist is worth a dozen on the ear. People who give themselves away are not necessarily charitable. The things that usually happen are those that seemed impossible. The starter of a race is one man who is always taken at his word. Wisdom and love have never been able to form an effective alliance. Adversity lifts up many a man whom prosperity had knocked down. The greatest medicine is a true friend. â€" Sir W. TVmple.
