We've been selling slices of our constitution aDd years o f our lives for lack of thought i , We forget that life Is worth more liv ing If we take care of the liver. You are not necesaarlly wrong with God because you are depressed. The devil may be after the body as well as the soul. Alexander Cruden was insane part of the time; so was Cowper.

Time was when folks seemed to think HI health a mark of spirituality. They were shocked when Emerson said, “ A sick man Is a rascal.” Some times piety was a disease of the liver; now we think differently concerning health. Then success had to come first; now we say health first. Amos R Wells says: "It makes no difference how well you can write short stories If tuberculosis Is fastened on you, nor how persuasively you can preach If jou have persistent nervous head aches, nor what skillful mechanic you are If you have overstrained your heart, nor how divinely you sing If your liver Is out o f order, nor what avenue o f usefulness Is open before you If It Is blocked by bodily disabili ties. If you are a fool with your body don't expect to be a sage with your mind. First make the physical basis sound and sweet and then God will let you build upon It a life to bis glory and your Joy.” Good! Solomon's tem pie or the temple o f Diana at Ephesus Is not to be compared In spiritual value to the temple o f the body. God comes down In mysterious fashion and dwells with us In the temple o f flesh. We must keep It sweet and clean and pure without and within. P o stp o n in g Y o u r O w n Funorol. Much o f health depends on nerves Vital forces are conducted along them But we're slhners on dissipating nerve force. The folks who can conserve this vital fluid will postpone their own funerals. In this year o f grace 1914 we are going some. President Wilson says. "All life Is not running to a fire.” But we're In an age of conflagration and high pressure systems.

His first picture of note was his “ Dante and Vergil,” painted when he was only twenty years old. It was extreme ly large, containing several figure* the size of life, and to buy tha can vas and colors took all the money Delacroix had. A frame was out of the question, but a good natured carpenter gave the young artist four strips o f lath, of which Dela croix made a rude framework for his masterpiece, which he then sent to the salon. But he had hardly a hope .hat his picture would be ac cepted. On opening day Delacroix went to the salon, bat failed to find hia painting. He was wandering dis consolately about when he noticed a great crowd before a picture. He drew near. It was his “ Dante and Vergil.” But it was in a magnifi cent, richly gilded frame, as fine a product of the picture mounter’* art as could he found in Paris. As tonished, he sought Baron Oroa, head of the examining committee. As soon as young Delacroix intro duced himself Oros seized his hand and congratulated him with true Gallic enthusiasm. “ But,” stam mered Delacroix, “ how about that splendid frame? I had no money to frame it, and” — “ Make your mind easy,” said the baron. “ Y our lath frame fell to pieces, but the committee was de termined that such a chef d’oenrre as you have painted should be plac ed on exhibition, and we framed your ‘Dante’ at our own expense.” — Exchange.

Don't waste your energy In hate, worry, reading gossip and crime, amusement that doesn't recre ate; don't go to school If you don'l want to learn, nor to church and Sun day school If you are inattentive. It's waste. But health Isn't found likt Ponce de Leon's fountain o f youth nor can It be bought at a bargain coun ter. It may be bad In a large measure by observing a few simple rules. Eat simple food. Drink lots of water Breathe deeply and slowly. Sleep as much ns you need. Open windows each night. Keep body and mind clean Stay out doors all you can. Play a lit iie each day. Langh much. There It really a laughter cure. Cultivate It Worry is sin. Forgive your brother. Laugh and forget It. Trust God You'll soon And God more loving and man easier to get along with. And you will find the "temple o f the Holy Ghost" a place fit for God. Jonathan Swift once preached a charity sermon the length o f which wearied many o f his hearers. The fact came to his knowledge, and when a few months later it fell to him to preach a similar sermon in the same place he determined to profit by the criticism. His text was, “ He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord, and that which he hath giv en will he pay him again.” And aft er repeating these words in a more than commonly emphatic tone the dean added; “ Now, my beloved brethren, you hear the terms of this loan; if you like the security down with your dust!” The quaintness and brevity of the sermon are said to have brought forth an unusually large contribu tion.— Detroit Free Press. An Advertisement Is a Challenge By HO LLAN D. HE man who advertises Is fearless. He courts the light He-dares all and sun dry to put him to the test "This Is what I oiler," he says In effect “Can you beat it? Can you do better else where? Make comparisons and then do business with me only If you find It Is to your advantage.” There Is nothing hidden about the advertiser. He stands up for himself, for his goods, for his reputation, for his towu. He wants every body to know him, to know his methods of business and his manner of treating cus tomers. This mnkes It safe to do business with him. Having spent much money making his name known, he cannot afford to have It tarnished, and be will go much more than halfway In an effort to correct a misunderstanding that Is not o f his making He wants to tell more than the bare truth, to do more than what Is really square. DEAL WITH A D V ER TISE S» FOB A SQUARE DEAL. T A n Eocentric W ill. In the year 1736 a gentleman liv ing in England named Samuel Bald- wyn died after a somewhat unhap py married life. By hia will Mr. Baldwyn left his property to hia young wife on the condition that 6he should from time to time dance upon his grave. The motive for this strange request was evident when the instructions for his inter ment were read. Mr. Baldwyn de sired that his remains should be taken by boat to the Needles and then cast into the sea. This singu lar wish enabled him to revenge hi inself on his wife for past dis agreements, and the widow lost the property, as she could not fulfill the conditions of her husband’s bequest.

The par son said: “ Goodby, my lord. I hope we may meet again, but if not here in some better place.” The bishop replied, “ I fear the latter is unlikely, as there are no Tears in heaven.” “ No doubt,” wittily answered the parson, “ you are right that our chance of meeting is small, as one reads of the plains o f paradise, but never o f any Hills there.” — London Queen. ----------------------- A Fr«a T ran slation . “ And you say the idiot o f a teach er told you that you had an extrava gant fool of a father?” “ That’s what he meant.” “ But what did he say?” “ He said it was criminal folly to waste money on the education of such a chump as I am.” — Cleve land Plain Dealer.
