Health In Happiness.

The sunshine of happy disposition
is not to be lest sight of in any consld-
Grafton of the laws of health. A de.
termination to make the best of every
thing, and to be pleasant under any
circumstances, is one of the most de,
sirable possessions either inherited ol
acquired.
The ioy of an unselfish character has
been. sung by poets and praised by
philosophers but its physical advan-
tapes. have too seldom been dwelt upon.
And yet the physian is brought into
almost daily contact with maladies oil
the nerves. in which he is fully con-
scious that pure selfishness on the part
of the patient himself, or on the part
of some member of his family, is alone
responsible for the physical disor'
der.
It is often easy to make a diagnosis
in cases of this kind, but difficult to
prescribe the remedy. A healthful in
terest in people and things would Of
ten provide a model remedy, but it is
not easy to procure.
Even more hopeless is the case OF
$ the unselfish wearied women, who
meets the physicians remarks as to
what she ought 10 do for herself with.

there is no appeal. Alas for the hu-
man charity that cannot see the need

or sister /!
It lies within the power of every
one to be a mental healer; the position
requires no special training. And ev-

ed glasses of an unselfish and hopeful
contentment.
The person who is contented and
happy digests his food with greater
ease he exercises with more bouy-
ance |; he does better work. He may
become i'll aud require physian, but
his chances for recovery are better
because of his previous good health
and his present hopefulness.
The benefit derived from "Change
of scene" is universally admitted.
The novelty of the new surroundings
excites 8 pleasure which drives ones
thoughts from self. Here the connec'
ton between happiness and healthful'
ness is obniveous.
It is not always easy to be patient
and topush cheerfully to its close an
uncongenial task; but it is the only
wholesome and healthful method Of
working and living.
A constant giving way to anger, OF
to any other of the passions, is dis,
tinctly detrimental to the physical
health, and not infrequently hastens
death.
The habit of being happy is inval'
liable to its possessor. If not always q
passport to perfect health, it is val
nable help toward it.-Youth's Com
panion.

SPRAYING POTATOES.
AN INTERESTING PAMPHLET FOR POTA-
TO-RAISERS.

AN INTERESTING PAMPHLET FOR POTA-
TO-RAISERS.
"Spray ing Potatoes" is the title of a
bulletin of the experiment station at
Burlington which has just come to hand.
1t is 1G-page pamphlet containing a
number of illustrations showing the char
acter of the potato bIights, and the effect
of spraying upon the yields and size of
potatoes. A spraying cart for the ready
application of fungicides is also illus
trated. The bulletin is summarized on
the first page in plain black type, and a
table of suggestions shows how to make
and apply the Bordeaux mixture and
where to obtain spraying machinery.
The main points brought out in the bull
letin are
l. That two distinct blights attack
Vermont potatoes.
,. That both are more thoroughly
checked by spraying with Bordeaux mix
ture than by any other means.
3. That the greatest gain in spraying
is due to prolonging the life of the plant,
enabling it thus to grow more and better
potatoes.
4. That potatoes planted in the mid.
die of May were kept free of disease with
less spraying than those planted earlier,
and have also given the largest yields.
>. That spraying large fields is best
done with a cart.
We are sure that the spray cart will in
terest many of our readers who have
found the application of Bordeaux mix
ture a tedious task.
All bulletins aud reports of the station
are sent free of charge to any address OF
application.
