KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. Pluck nnd Persistence Will Pull Us Thr6ugh. Do not whine. Hold tup your chin and keep your troubles to yourself. livery one of us must carry his pack. And in the carrying of it come strength and self respect. When you were a child you weni to mother for your sympathy and help, but the time comes when you must shoulder your burden alone. It is worse than folly to complain of it to your fellows, liach of them is bending his back to his own load. Can you expect any of them to lay down his load and listen to your whining? If you go about retailing your griefs with expectation o? sympa thy you will experience only cha grin. Of course if you fall down and really hurt yourself, if you are a genuine object of piiy, the world's heart will be stirred in your behalf, and it will help you to the limit. But- So long as the world sees that you are able to bear your pack it expecis you to get under it. Stand up like a man. Some of us who are older can look back over the way and re member how we were to "put up a poor mouth" because of some hard jolt. Vi'e buttoned up our white lips and shut the hard luck siory back. Pluck and persistence and sweat pulled us through. Do not whine. It is useless. The whiner gets nowhere. And he becomes a nui sance. He saps his own strength by indulging his grouch, and he saps others of their strength be cause of his iierraied grievance. Hide your utle of woe. lindure in silence. Keep your i own counsel. Lean on yourself. Gird up your loins and keep up a ' stiff upper lip. There's heroism! in doing that. Oh, I know- j Sometimes life looks like an un-1 ending and intricate tangle, and sometimes the pathway is dark ! and stony and steep. And ihere ; are thorns by the way. j But, after all The world that we are living in j Is mighty hard to beat. ! With every rose you get a thorn, But ain't the roses sweet ? 1 K. I'i.A K'K j C. A.

Mirfh Is Qod's Medicine Eyery body Ought to Bnthe In It. Mirth a medicine? Certainly, and a good one bet ter than the most of the prescrip tions of materia medica. It is one of nature's real tonics, a balm for life's trials, a salve for sorrows.lin iment for grouches, a panacea for worry. Dr. Sanderson says: "Mirth, cheerfulness, is a better stimulant for the tissues of the body than drugs, which react. Laughter is an actual life giving in fluence." Another physician says, "Fun is a food and as necessary to wholcsomeness as bread." Therefore laugh. We take life too seriously. We do not laugh enough. Or we in dulge in a stingy sort of mirth. Some of us laugh so seldom we lose the habit of it. . A laugh is a massage. Figures of speech aside, a good laugh is a real massage treatment. When you laugh heartily your dia phragm gets busy. In moving rap idly up and down it massages the liver, stirring that organ up to its duty. It affects other organs also, "Laugh and grow fat" is the shrewd observation of many gen erations. The old kings were wise. They hired jesters to make them laugh. And Lycurgus, able lawmaker, set up the god of laughter in the pub lic dining rooms of Sparta. Laughter is a good buffer. It is like the shock absorbers put in the springs of their automo biles. It helps to carry one easily over the knobs and "thank-you-tna'ams" of life's rugged road. And it reduces friction every- where. Laughter is normal. , Good health and physical and mental harmony require that the funmaking propensities should be released. Laughter does that. If these natural propensities are kept back one has an attack of "the i blues;" if totally repressed insan ity. Laugh and succeed. If you bottle up your visible spirits you paralyze your per sonality. A cheerful spirit and a hearty laugh smooth out many wrinkles of business. Men and women go every year to premature graves because ihey have forgotten how to laugh, i Laugh and stay above ground. Ikickache Almost Unbearable N an alnuiM ceituin result of kiilney tnuiMc. I.

In fact it is oft-times associated with a physical disorder of some kind. The in clination to worry over trifles is universal. Some people have ac quired the worry habit. It sticks to them like an adhesive plaster. Their first mental efforts on rising each day is to seek out some un pleasant subject to worry about. One can readily imagine the dis appointment that would ensue should a person of this character find nothing to worry about. But this would be an unusual sensa tion, for one can always find some thing to worry about. If not a misfortune yesterday, then one of the day before if not of this year, then of last year. If you are a victim of the worry habit, you are uselessly wasting valuable ener gies. Rest assured that life will be of little value to you or anyone else. Physical exercise is of invalua ble assistance in this respect. When you find, for instance, that you can not possibly avoid worrying, then immediaiely find some means of actively using the" muscles of your body. Take a long walk or play some game in the open air that will keep you continuously and pleasantly occupied. If this is dificult or impossible, take some exercise in your room. Work persistently and vigorously until the blood is bounding through your arteries, until you feel the pulsation of new life stirring your entire physical organism. Realize the tremendous possibilities in life and stop wasting your time with trifling grievances, you must re member that worries are never im portant, notwithsianding the value they may seem to assume in our life. Their only importance is the power they have for harm, and if their power is evil, then by all means they should be made to stamp them out of your life, you can rest assured the exercises tak- ; en as a worry cure will accomplish the desired purpose if they are given your entire attention, ana use all the muscles of your body and vigorously arouse the activity of your lungs and heart. A man with a high aim in life seldom carries a gun. Glorious News j comes from Dr. .1. T. Curtis. Invifrht, j Kan.
