DOn,t WORRY About yourseIG.

To regain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from all anxiety concerns
ing diseases. The mind has power over
the body. For person to think he has
disease will produce that disease. This we
see effected when the mind is intensely con-
centrated upon the disease Of another. II
is found in the hospitals that surgeons and
physicians who make a specially OF certain
diseases are liable to die OF IL Themselves,
and the mental power IL 80 great that some
times people die Of diseases which they on
ly have In imagination. We have seen q

and sick persons should have their minds

Whistllng as an Indication Of Charac'
ter.

tcTN
An old farmer once said to us that he
would not have q hired man on his farm
who did not habitually whistle. He said
he never knew whistling laborcr to find
fault with his food his bed, or complain
Of any little extra work he was asked to
perform. Such a man was generally kind
to children, and to animals in his care.
He would whistle chilled lamb into
warmth and life, and would bring in his
hat full of eggs from the barn without
| breaking one of them. He found such a
man more careful about closing gates, pat
ting up bars, and seeing that the nuts on
his plow were all properly tightencd before
he took it into the field. He never knew q
whistling hired man to kick or beat cow,
or drive her on a run into the stable. He
had noticed the sheep he fed in the yard
and shed gathered around him as he whis-
tied, without fear. He never had employed
u whistler who was not thoughtful or eco
nomical.
That this farmers philosophy is generally
correct is true. A cheerful, hopeful. buoy
ant man is sure to get through this life
more smoothly and with less friction than
one of those chaps with acute angles and
rasp-like sides to theircharacter. A cheer
full family on farm is far more likely tu
be prosperous one than one that il COM
posed of grum and growing individuals
who are forever finding fault and turning
even prosperity and success into a com.
plant. Men and women who are EN-
ployed to assist in farm labor will work
cheaper and more zealously with family
who cultivate cheerful spirit, enjoy in
nocent fun, and wake the echoes all ovei
the farm and in the house, from morning
to night, with jollity and good cheer. The
merchant will sell cheaper, and deal morC
literally, with keen, wile-awake, jolly
farmer, than with long and sour-faced
grumbler. This is no trivial matter. Il
enters into business as an integer, just a;
sunshine makes CT ciops.-RWat NeW Yorker
