They seldom lie-except In gas meters , Don't think because IIfo Is short that ono set of good resolutions will last 11. lifetime. Don't forgot that the money you Intend to 'Save Is not drawing inter. cst at the present writing. Don't worry about trifles. Remember - ber the hole that lets the Water In your Hhoo will let It out again , Don't Imaglno that every sad-eyed woman you meet has loved and lost. It's moro than lIlwly she loved and got him , Don't censure a society woman for entering the theater a ltUo ! late. She probably had to wash the dinner dishes before she started.
