DEBT AND HEALTH.
MENTAL TENSION IN PECUNIARY
TROUBLE A CAUSE OF IN
SANITY.

A Western newspaper very reason
ably aflirms that ones condition for
health or disease often depends upon
his pecuniary state. To ensure
health, so far as human effort can
control the matter, one should,
above all, be cheerful contented and
calm. You cannot do this if you
Intentionally or unintentionally incur
debt, for debt is embarrassing and
painfully annoying. No person of
the least pride or self-respect can
possibly be comfortable if in debt.
Debt is something that cannot al
ways be avoided, although it never
fails to produce, in persons of prin-
clple, an amount of mental worry
that is absolutely distressing. Men
tai tension, pecuniary trouble, is one
of the chief causes of insanity. Men
struggle for a competency because
they, especially those not far re-
moved from poverty, fear poverty,
not for themselves, but for others.
A father will suffer more in the
thought that his wife and daughter
may be left penniless than he will if
the family physician tells him that
the wife has an incurable cancer
and may die at any moment, or that
the daughter will be crippled for
life. He prefers even this to the
thought that she may be forced to
manual labor. 1t is true that
poverty In our artificial state of So
ciety involves all the miseries-
hunger, overwork, humiliation and
sickness-yet we can hardly under
stand why men should not choose
them all rather than sickness and
physical suffering. The man who
commits suicide from pecuniary
troubles is, nine times in ten, found
to be one who is overworked or who
has ragged secretly or openly at the
apparent injustice involved in work
that brings no return, or who haunt
ed by fear of poverty, has lived be-
You'd his income, incurred annoying
debts and takes his life to escape the
consequent misery and mental agony.
Nothing overturns the mental bal

sense of injustice or long continued
debt, and nothing is so frequent 9
cause for suicide. Hope is said to
spring eternal in the human breast,
but in the matter of money-makine
years of non-success kill hope anC
destroy mental vigor and bodily
health. No other form of misery
produces quite the same impression
as financial wrong. TO be a healthy
man learn to bear cheerfully thu
misfortune as well as the good for

requirements of the laws of health
are cheerfulness, contentment ant
calmness, and that man live within
