  1. (continued from previous page)
    Never leave until to-morrow what you can do to-day.
    Long threatening comes at last.
    A fool and his money soon part.
    The old dog for the hard road and the young pup for the path.
    Idle minds tempts the devil.
    Honesty is the best policy
    Keep the bone and the dog will follow you.
    When there's a will there's a way.
    A watched pot never boils.
    Keep your shop, and your shop will keep you
    Courage is half the battle
    May hands make light work.
    The rosiest apple may be rotten at the core.
