A Merry Heart

I'd rather be poor and merry than
inherit the wealth ofthe Indies with a
Disconnected spirit. A merry heart, a
cheerful spirit, from which laughter
wells up as naturally as bubble the
springs of Saratoga, are worth all the
money bags, stocks and mortgages of
the city. The man who laughs is doc
tor, with diploma endorsed by the
school Of nature His face does more
good in sick room than pound OF
powders or a gallon of bitter draughts.
If things 90 right he laughs because he
is pleased; if they 80 wrong he laughs
because it is better and cheaper than
crying. People are always glad to see
him, their hands instinctively 90 half
way to meet his grasp, while they
turn involuntarily from the clammy
touch of the dyspeptic, who speaks on
the grooming key. He laughs you out
of your faults, while you never dream
of being offended with him and never
know what pleasant world you are
living in until he points out the sunny
streaks on its pathway. Who can h elT
loving that wholesouled, genial laugh
ter. Not the butfoon, nor the mar
who classes noise with mrtb, but the
CHEEKY contented man of sense and
mind, A good humored laugh is the
KEY TO al breasts. The truth is tha
people like to be laughed at in a gen'a
sort of way. If you are making, your
self ridiculous you want to be told OF
in pleasant manner, not sneered at
, And it is astonishing how frankly tn
/: laughing population can talk withou
treading on the toes of their neighbors
Why will the people put on long faces
when it is so much easier and more con
Portable to laugh? Tears come to u
nnsought and unbidden. The wisest 10
! in life is to cultivate smiles, and to tin
, the flowers where others shrink ava.
for fear Of thorns. y -
