"What will you give in ex change for your life?" It is like that other solemn question about the soul. Just as an honest man feds that nothing of earthly value can be weighed against his yml so a man w ho has one friend to love him knows that life is too precioiui to be bartend away for am bition, or money, pride. lint men are slow to believe that over work sometimes kills; a man hates to ad mit that his health ever needs any particu lar care. He feels miseraiile nod "out of sorts" but tries to "bluff it off" until he gets flat on his back, unable to do a stroke of work. He becomes obliged to spend no end of money for doctors and even at that can hardly save his life. How much more sensible, and in the end how much cheaper at the first signs of phy sical weakness to write to Dr. R. V. fierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of I'liffulo, N.
