An Outspoken English
Physician's Advice to a Lazy
Rich Man
full of gout and ill humors, and with no appetite,
when he consulted him, laying down a fee o five
guineas upon the office table, was:
"You will get well if you will live on a shilling
a dau and earn it."
Getting out of a soft bed at 11 A. M., lounging
and playing cards at a club until dinner, rusts
away a fine mind, spoils a good disposition and
turns what might be a useful citizen into a most
unhappy man.
A friend of the writer once said of a man:
"That man yes, a clever fellow, but he is like a
lobster, which, when left high and dry among the
rocks at Narragansett, has not sense and energy
enough to work his way back to the sea, but waits,
for the sea to come to him."
On this business farm we arc training colts
when young to make up our teams for coming days.
