THE EFFECTS OF WoRRY.-That the ef-
fects of worry are more to be dreaded than
those Of simple hard work, Is evident from
noting the classes of persons who suffer
most from the effects of mental overstrain.
The case book of the physician shows that
it Is the speculator, the betting man, the
railway manager. the great merchant, the
superintendent of large manufacturing or
commercial works, who most frequently
exhibits the symptoms of cerebral exhaus-
ton. Mental care accompanied with sup
pressed emotion, occupations liable TO great
vicissitudes OF fortune, and those which
involve the bearing on the mind of a'mul-
tiplicity of intricate details, eventually
break down the lives of the strongest. In
estimating what may be called the staying
powers of different minds under hard work
it is always necessary to take early train
ing into account. A young man cast
suddenly into position involving great
care and responsibility, will break down
in circumstances In which, had he been
gradually habltuated to the position, he
would have performed its duties without
difficulty. 1t is probably for this reason
that tae professional classes generally sui-
fer less from the effects of overstrain than
others. They have a long course Of pre-
llminary training, aud their work comes
on them by degrees; therefore, when it
does come in excessive quantity 1t finds
them prepared for 1t. Those, on the other
hand, who suddenly vault into a position
requiring severe mental toll, generally die
befoie their time Chambers Journal.

The Pumpkin.
ny JOHN O. WHITTIER.

oh! grcenly and fair in the lands of the sun,
The vines Of the gourd and the rich melon run,
And the rock, and the tree and the cottage enfold,
with broad leaves all grecnpcss aud blossoms all gold
Like that which o'er Ninevehs prophet once grew
While he waited TO know that his warning was true,
And onged for the storm-cloud, and listened in vain
For the rush of the whirlwind and red fire rain.
On the banks of the xenil the lark Spanish maiden
Comes up with the fruit of the tangled vine laden
And the Creole Of Cuba laughs ont to behold
Through orange leaves shining the broad spheres Of
gold;
Yet with dearcr delight from his home in the North
On the fields Of his harvest the Yankee looks FORTH
Where crook-necks are cong and yellow fruit Shines
And the of September melts down on the vines
Ali Thanksgiving day, when from East and from
West,
From North and from South come the pilgrim and
guest,
When the gray-haired New Englander secs round his
board
The old broken link OF affection restored,
When tho care-wearied man seeks his mother once
moro,
And the matron smiles where the girl smiled be-
FORE
What moatens the lip and what brightens the eyer
What calls back the past like the rich pumpkin pief
Oh! fruit loved of boyhoodl the old days recalling,
When wood-grapes were purpling and brown nuts
fallingl
When Wild ugly faces we carved In the skin,
Glaring out through the dark with candle withinl
When we laughed round the cornheap, with hearts all
in tune,
Our chair pumpkin, our lantern the moon
Telling tales of the fairy who travelled like steam
In pumpkin hell coach, with two rats for her team
