Of course, every pitcher,. whether it goes to the well or stays on the shelf, is broken at last, and the only result of this absurd proverb is to encourage lazy folk to do as little work as possible and unnecessarily keep out of harm’s way. oi If You Want a Thing Well Done, Do It Yourself.—There’s shocking bad adLEADING pain Best 5 Cent Cigar OLDT IMPT BOHEMIAN CLUB HARMONIA American Laundry, SACRAMENTO.

If he wants a button well sewed on, he’s to do it himself; if he wants his hair well cut, he’s to cut it himself. He must mend his own chairs, shoe his own nag, darn his own socks. In short, from buying a horse to blacking his boots, he must do it himself. Poor fellow! A Contented Mind Is a Continual Feast.—Can any one say what that means? Does it mean that the owner continually feasts on bis contented mind or that the contented mind is continually feasting? Probably the latter, as we sometimes hear that ‘‘a hungry man’s an angry man,’’ and we all know that a satisfied appetite is the source of contentment. Hence it is not the contented mind which makes the feast, as the silly proverb implies, but the continual feast which produces the contented mind. There’s No Rule Without an Exception.—This is not only a proverb; it is also a rule. But obviously there is no exception to this rule, because if there were a rule with an exception this proberb would be untrue. But the. proverb is a rule which has no exception, which, as Mr. Euclid would say,, is absurd. Which was to be shown. Where Ignorance Is Bliss, ’Tis Folly to Be Wise.—For oracular stupidity this proverb may be classed with the Jone about the pitcher. Granting it trae, the difficulty is to know where ignorance is bliss and of course the proverb gives. no assistance where it is most needed. Most people quote it as 'signorange is bliss,’’ in their blissful ignorance, but if a proverb gives rise to error it is not only absurd; it is also dangerous. When people say— A Little Learning Is a Dangerous Thing—They make that a reason, not for learning more, but for learning less. Love Me, Love My Dog.—If I go a-courting, and my ladylove bids me love her scented, dyspeptic poodle, which is not necessary to her health.and comfort, must I not much more love her glass eye and false teeth and hair, which are? Yet common sense revolts at the notion, and I therefore assume that a proverb which, logically treated, makes such unreasonable demands on my affections is wrong and absurd. Seeing Is Believing. —How can any reflecting person repeat these words? For very often we believe we see what really wedo not. If a conjurer were to take this proverb as his motto, every one would see its absurdity. ; A: straight stick half submerged in ‘water looks crooked. Fortunately, another proverb says, ‘‘Trust not to appearances. ”* And this bring us to the exquisite absurdity of popular proyerbs which run in contradictory pairs and support both sides of an argument. Thus one proverb says, “Look before you leap;’’ another, ‘Who hesitates is lost.’? Sometimes we hear that ‘‘Second thoughts are best ve at other times that ‘‘Delays are dangerous.’ The desperate man relies on “Nothing venture, nothing have;”’ the cautious man on ‘‘Neyer venture out of your depth till you can swim.’’ The impatient. matrimonial “candidate beThese are the attractions you can always find at “THE.
