Pointed Paragraphs From The Atchison Globe
Eternal gratitude is eternal slavery. No man knows enough to entitle him to conceit. If you wish no way to suspect your secret, don’t have one. When some people work they make so much fuss you are sorry they started. It is a sign a sick man is getting better when he begins to worry about his doctor bill. They are about even if you are a boy it is the wood box if you are a girl it is the wishes. Every thief admits at the end of his life that he would have prospered better as an honest man. Of what use are friends? In prosperity a man has no use for them, in adversity they have no use for him.
