  1. (continued from previous page)
    Reading is to the mind, what exercise is to the body
    Hail fellow, well met?
    Every old stocking meets an old shoe?
    A penny spared after death is wasted money?
    Courage is half the battle
    On a cold day it is said a good fire is better than food
    Lie with lamb and rise with the lark?
    Riddles
    As round as ball, as light as a feather, adn yet a hundred men wouldn'nt carry it:-
    Ans:- A bubble,
