Ask any fellow up or down

And yet, my brother, you should boo
That friendship Isn't that:
To bo a friend Is more to bo

To give a dollar to tt 1mm,
A hundred to the poor.

Provided that 1 think it pays
And really need tho man."
Yet maybe not with cash alouo
Your labor you should pay:
Perhaps somo praUo for work woll

And, when It's tlmo to olovato

Perhaps 't wore better not lo heed '

It would be pleusniilor, indeed,
A fairer Kumo lo play.
For things aro often far from truo
That gossips loll with glee.
If your competitors you knew,
All happlor would be.
Now flguro up tho balance, friend:
On uno xldo put tint things
That through tho year from end to
end
Tho day roturnlng bring
The smile, lliogr'lp, tho ploasnnt
word,
Tho help when trouble rose,
The luck you had, tho laugh you
heard,
And matter such ns those.
Then on tho other sldo put down
Tho things you did for mon
Tho things you did to help tho town
And holp your brothers; thou
Your habits, temper, honor, all
You did with heart or hand

And find out how you stnnrt.
