A Proverbial Sunday Afternoon.

The wisdom of ages.

" After dinner rest a while, after supper walk a mile. "
" All is fish that comes to the net. "
" Fish and guests stink after three days. "
" A liar ought to have a good memory. "
" A little pot is soon hot. "
" Marry in haste repent at leisure. "
" Never choose your women or linen by candlelight."
" September blow soft till the fruit's in the loft. "
" The tongue always returns to the sore tooth. "
" Young folks think old folks to be fools, but old folks know young folks to be fools. "
" Listeners never hear any good of themselves. "
" Talk of the Devil and he is bound to appear. "
" Why buy a cow when milk is so cheap? "
