The general tendency of Sir John

Food. U'OrE aI,d Steep.

The things that a man most needs IN
this world are food, work and sleep. He
doesn't need riches, for honors OF office
to live. He needs society because he is
made for it. He must love and be loved ;
his life and happiness are promoted by
companionship; mutual dependence and
counsel enlarge hope and stimulate
courage. Yet, he lives if his friends
lie. There is no grief, no form of
bereavement, but it has it's consolation.
The best preserver of a mans life is con-
eminent. Nor is work destructive of
strength. Men look forward to rest to
u life of ease which to them means ces-
.,ation from toll and from the cares of
business. It is not work; it is care, it
is over-eXertion, it is ambition and de-
sire after gain that bring worn and
weary feelings. All we possess we pos
sess in life; the sooner we get through
life the sooner we relinquish our pos
sessions. The faster man lives the
quicker he reaches the end of life.
There are three ends to life, and death
is the last and least desirable. One end
is to live. That is why we were created
to live, and as well as we can. Some
60 murmuring and grooming on their
way. as though life was burden, and
that it is piety to put a low estimate on
it. The opposite is true. A man should
seek to live out his days, and he cannot
accomplish it in better way than by
using every means to promote life.
Among these means are the things
mentioned at the head of this article.
When man denies himself sleep, food,
and the exercise work gives, brain and
BODY work, he robs his life of its full
term. Let him be cheerful, also. He
is like an engine-it will run well and
long if it is well oiled Contentment
and cheerfulness are the oil which keep
the nerves from wearing out. Busy
men and women think that time taken
from toll for sleep and recreation is
time lost. 1t is really the cement put
in to fill up the joints, to keep out the
weather and preserve the building.
