him warm reception. The commander OF

Tho Adxntnres Of Rest


There is no better preventative of nervous
exhaustion than regular, unhurried muscular
exercise II we could moderate our hurry
lessen our worry, and increase our open air
exercise, large proportion of nervous dis
eases would be abolished. For those who
cannot get a sufficient holiday the best sub
stitute is an occasional day in bed. Many
whose nerves are constantly strained In their
daily vocation have discovered this for them
selves
Spanish merchant in Barcelona told his
medical man that he always went to bed for
two or three days whenever he could be
spared from his business and he laughed at
those who spent their holidays on toilsome
mountains One of the hardest worked
women in England, who has for many years
conducted large wholesale business, retains
excellent nerves at an advanced age, owing,
it is believed, to her habit of taking one day
a week in bed. If we cannot avoid frequent
agitation we ought, If possible, to give the
nervous system time to recover itself between
the shocks. Even an hours seclusion after
good lunch will deprive a hurried, anxious
day Of much Of its injury. The nerves can
often be overcome by strategem when they
refuse to be controlled by strength Of WILL

The mild looking, rather petite, but digni-
lied, woman just passing must have been
quite pretty in her youth, though she never
probably could have been called handsome.
There Is q certain something, however, about
her--a sweetness in her looks and manner
that Is more charming in a woman of her
years than any remains Of physical beauty
would be. She is very simply attired in
black, and a black bonnet modestly covers
her silvery gray hair.

She is Jay Gould's sister, She has come
over from her home in Camden-a ouiet

ping, probably One often meets her in the

few, she escapes the ogling and comment that
she would otherwise be subjected to. She Il
