Penalty Of Too Much Brain WorE.


No man can do head-work faithfullyfor
more than four or five or six hours If
that timeis exceeded, all the phosphorus
is carried of, and the man becomes
irritable, broken down, and has softening
of the brain. Ihave seen this overwork
in lawyers, doctors, olergymen and mer-
chants, who have worked the brain for ten
hours. They have dropped under the
burden. You cannot violate the law of
God with lmpunity Sir Walter Scott did
a large amount Of brain work in his day,
but he did not OVerWork himself In his
latter days, however, he became peCuni-
ariy embarrassed, and resorted 10 his liter
AIRY pursuits to save himself; but he
woTked too hard and completely broke
himself down, One Of the best scholars 1
ever knew broke himself down In his
younger days, but he lived on to seventy,
Enough he could only work some four
hours a day. After these hours he en-
gagged in vigorous exercises to keep him
out OF the house as much as possible, and
he continued one of the best professors in
the country. -ErclttROe.
