SPURGEON'S PROVERBS.
One vice is one too many. Don'* fell a tree to kill a bee. , An aimless man bits nothing. A man in debt—a bird in a net. He that's at aea must sail or sink. Don't make two fires to boil one egg. More are cured by diet than by lancet. Even in the forest don't waste firewood. He is rich enough who wnnU nothing. Muddle at borne makes husbands roam. He who does most is one to do more. Fly from pleasure that bite* to-morrow. The worst pit; may get the best potatoes. Every day a thread makes a skein in a year. You may *in your case, yet lose your cash. He bears sorrow best who hides it the moot. He who goes to law may come back with straw.
