Some of the wisest things Franklin ever said ap- peared in his Almanac, which he called " Poor Rich- ard's Almanac." Beginning when he was twenty-six years of age, he published it yearly for twenty-five years, building up a very large circulation. It con- tained many homely maxims, which are as good to-day as they were in Franklin's time. Here are a few of them: BENJAMIN FRANKLIN 183 " God helps them that help themselves." u Early to bed and early to rise, Makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise
...." " There are no gains without pains." " One to-day is worth two to-morrows." u Little strokes fell great oaks." " Keep thy shop, and thy shop will keep thee." Franklin always had a deep interest in the public welfare. He started a subscription library in Philadel- phia and established an academy, which finally grew into the University of Pennsylvania. Having a decidedly practical turn of mind, he had great influence in organ- izing a better police force and a better fire department.
He invented the Franklin stove, which soon became popular because it was so much better than the open fire- place.
