Plenty More Days
Plenty More Days.
In Spain the people take no note of time, nor even from its loss. Everything is to be done "manana," tomorrow. A wealthy Englishman, who had long lived in Spain, had a law suit. He pleaded his cause in person and knowing the customs of the country, won his case. The victory cost him three days of trouble and expense, so that when the judge congratulated him on his success, he replied. "Yes, that's all right; but it has cost me three days, and time is money. I am a busy man, and these three days are lost forever." "Oh! you English," answered the judge, "you are always saying that time is money! How are you to get your three days back? I will tell you. Take them out of next week; surely there are plenty more days to come!"
