Worry Is a bugaboo. It Is usually
based on the flimsy foundation of a
disordered Imagination. Worry Is the
dark cloud of life. Worry. In fact.
Is one of nature's very meanest tricks.
Take your own worries, for ei'

Check bark on them. Tabulate the
things that have kept yon awake at
night; that have disturbed your di

other shaken you. And what do you

Less than 1 per cent of the bun
