THE PHILOSOPHY or REST.
Proper Relaxation Restores and Generates
Creative Energy.

Proper Relaxation Restores ana 6enofetee
Creative Energy.
Physical labor is fatiguing just in
proportion to the absence OF thought,
or the depreasing quality Of the
thought. hast from this fatigue comes
very largely from change OF thought
currents. 1t is great mistake to
fancy that one is only at work when
he is doing something ON the visible
and tangible side. An afternoon on
the lounge, or in an easy chair. or .
hammock, reading is not unfrequently
far more productive even to the busy
housewife, than it would have been
spent over the mending basket or at
the sewing machine. BY living high
enough to catch the outlook, 20 to
speak, one generates certain degree
of creative energy, which tides over
work otherwise exhausting with little
sense of fatigue. To receive this en-.
ergy is to rest. Therefore the philoso-
ply of rest is to bring ones self into
receptivity to this infinite potency.
just how?
One way is simply to sit down alone
and silently, and lift up the thought
to the divine world. To realize, quiet
ly, the exceeding beauty Of life a. lived
on the spiritual plane. Things have
happened, perhaps, that are irritating,
vet hold fast to the thought that one
must Danish resentment; must govern
his thoughts as well as his acts by
benevolence; that one must ever keep
in his mind the ideal Of the divine har'
mony. This habit Of daily concentra-
ting the mind on the divine qualities
results in rapid requirement of poise
exhilaration, and enduring strength.
The spirit-world around our world Of sense
Floats like an atmosphere"
says the poet Longfellow. and the
poets insight has discussed literal
fact. AS we are primarily spiritual
teings, we can receive of this infinite
potency in which we live and move
and have our being II we are sum

AUTOMATIC COURTESY.
A Habit That Helps to Smooth the Path
of Life.

A Habit That Helps to Smooth the Path
of Life.
The habit of being courteous under
all circumstances to those with whom
one is thrown is always a wonderful
advantage to man or woman. 1t so
smooths the way for one. 1t makes
the machinery by which society moves
run so evenly, without jars and wear
ing friction. 1t helps one to accomp-
lish his work with SO much more ease,
by making those with whom he has to
deal eager and willing to help him in
whatever way they can.
There is the greatest difference in
the way people go about their busi'
ness. One man is anxious and wor-
ried. and resolved to accomplish every
thing he attempts and he forgets that
those about him also have their work
to do. and treats them with scant
courtesy
It is not because he means to be dis
agreeable or does not care whether he
is disagreeable or not. 1t is simply
that it does not occur to him that there
is necessity to be courteous in business.
1t is well enough to be polite after busi-
ness hours, but during them he has NO
time to waste. 1t follows that this
person is continually having little tilts
with the people he meets Men do not
move quickly enough for him, or some
bodvs clerk overlocks him, and takes
nm the business of ano ther when his
should have had the precedence. He
frets and fumes. His attitude is an
tagonistic, and those who meet him
quickly feel it, and are themselves i'm
mediately put upon the defensive
This, of course, does not tend to make
his business transactions run as
smoothly as they might, and things
get into the way of going wrong. =

Women as Inventors.

1t has been the favorite contention of
those who deny that woman is intel
lectually the equal of man, that women
are for the most part devoid of inven-
tive genius. Speaking of this attribute
of the female mind the Atlanta Con-
stitutiOn says:
"Many women are coming to the front with
$4,000 out of new method of straw weaving
and since then 5000 patents have been issued
to the fair sex. Hundreds of these are for
improvements in corsets and crinoline.
Some are for foot stoves, machine for cut
ting straw and fodder, fireplace, subma-
rne telescope and lamp, plOw, a dumping
wagon, a car heater, a car coupler, a stem
winding watch, screw propeller, an ozone
machine, a street car awning, and a dice
box One woman has invented corpse
cooler, and another has a combination wash
ing machine and see saw. A colored woman
has inv ented a movable portion of q dining
table, supported by rollers, mounted on a
central pivot, so that a person seated at the
| table wanting a dish from the opposite side
| can turn the central section round to him
| In the face of these facts it must be admitted
| that women have inventive genius and we
| must be prepared to see the new woman
| enter into sharp competition with men in
| every occupation where the weakness and
peculiarities of her sex do not absolutely ban
her OUT

A Sad Case.

The New York Sun thinks that the
Hon. Grover Cleveland is sorely al
fiicted with some distemper, but un-
like some of its contemporaries does
not think it is degeneracy. 1t suggests
the name Clevelandiasis, or more tech
nically automania Clevelandiana. 1t
also charges Grover with being mega
lomaniac and also describes this spe-
cies of the genus homo as follows:
The megalomaniac takes an enlarged view
of himself or his powers or his surroundings.
His sense of humor has been blunted and his
sense of proportion and personal perspective
lost. He is like goose going In by the barn
door. He ducks his head lest he hurt the
stars. Other things look too small to him;
he looks too large to himself. He may be a
good neighbor, kind to the poor, correct in
all the moral relations of life and even able
to play willy old hand at whist; and yet lie
has screw loose and an unfinished room
to let in his brain.i
The Sun continues:
The case of Mr.. Cleveland adds to these IN
dications others absolutely unique. Some
superficial observers have diagnosed it as
acute megalomania; it is something allied,
perhaps, in its incipience and desipience
with that, but different from it or any other
known form of mental popularity. As Male.
branche saw nothing in the world but God,
so Mr.. Cleveland is unable to see anything in
the world but himself. All are but parts OF
one stupendous whole, and he is the whole.
Mr.. Cleveland is charged with as
piring to third term, but if the Sun
has properly diagnosed the symptoms
his intellectual condition will hardly
warrant his making the exertion.Y:
