Reader's note

The proverbs of a nation are not only an epitome of its wisdom, but crystallise for us much of its national temperament and popular habits of thought. Nowhere, perhaps, can what are regarded as the national trait be so compactly presented as in these saws and proverbs. In the preparation of the present series the utmost care has been taken to unearth those sayings which are in danger of falling into disuse, and are not widely known. The commonplace Proverbs have, in most cases been rejected; little-known sources have been investigated, and everything possible done to give, in each case, the best of the available material. Which one will be your favourite? This reader is partial to - When your money is spent you cut off wine; when growing old you turn to the sacred books.
