Effect of Happiness on Health.

1t should be remembered that happiness
and health are most intimately, if not in
dissolubly, associated. The man who is
happy, not by transient CLEANS of spiritual
sunshine, not by casual gay surface color
ing of his existence, but by Il blcssedness
all through his body is not in the proper
sense of tho word, diseased. Tho radical
idea of the term disease is inconsistent
with this state.
Let us remember that life, blcsscdness
and health are one. He who Is not blessed,
who Is not happy, does not really live He
does not realize the idea of what we call
life. The wheels of life move, if they move
Mt all, with friction and labor and effort.
All action in tho line of duty is an uphill
exertion and not q spontaneous vivacity.
An unhappy man cannot in the full
sense of tho word be a healthy man. Much
of what physicians treat as physical dis
ease is only mental unhappincss. 1t fol-
lows from this that the best physician is
he who bloSscs others, who makes other
souls happy by the divine sunshine of his
words and presence. The sphere of his
bencflcent life is ~ contagious pcacefulncss
and undsturbed tranquility. He minis
tiers to minds diseased, Gains their fears,
allays their anXictjes, solves their doubts,
quiets forebodings, removes the gloom of
despair, supplants their self condemnation
by sense of pardon and aims to pluck
from the heart every rooted sorrow.-

John Brady was one of five brothers, all

Nlorgan's Riflc corps Mt Saratoga. On the
conclusion of tho war they settled near
Standing Stone, aftcrward moving to Jul
nlata county.
This was famous hunting ground of
tho Senecas and they made it warm for
the pioneers. The Brady family, nssistcd
by their ncighbors, undertook to cut n
field of rye. Their rifles were stacked
handy, but near the close of dry they be-
came careless, and were attacked by par
ty of Shawnccs. Sam Brady got to tho ri
flcs and shot one of tho Indians, and then
got bullet through the body and was
tomahawhcd to death and his long red
hair carried away i'll triumph. His father
escaped and two girls, but n third was cap-
turcd and her brother Thomas killed and
scalpcd.
When the Indians rctrcated they took
Mary Brady along. Sho was then about
Is. One of the party was very largo man
who spoke English well and was kind TO
the white captive, and this was the famous
Seneca chief, Cornplantcr. Bald Eagle,
Shawnee chief, was also along. At night,
when the party were sleeping, Mary Brady
arose and taking her brothers scalp that
was drying by the fire, quietly stole away,
and taking II straight road through tho
woods, was met mt day break by her broth
or John and his friends, who wero in
pursuit
Brady sworc to be rovcngcd ON Corn

later while scouting on the Allegheny

81, 400 clcrkship in tho treasury depart
mcnt. He is n good clerk and writes n
fine hand. Notwithstanding all this he
still pursues his calling of presidential bar
ber Every morning while tho president
is in Washington this clerk goes to the
White House, carrying in n satchel razors,
soap, cups, brushes and strops. This duty
is always finished i'll timo for him to be at
his desk promptly at 8 o'clock, and few of
his fellow clerks know why he never ap-
pears without that black leather satchcl.
Lincoln WAS the first president to en-
ploy him as barber at tho executive man
sion, and for some reason he has always
been able to get the same privilege from
every successive president When Presi-
dent Grant returned from his Inaugural
tion, tho door of the White House was
opened for him by this barber, whom no
questioned as to what position he held in
tho White House. Something in the fell

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues Of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenance from
the blood, and IL the blood is thin, i'm
pure or insufficient, they are in state
of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king Of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.

lshculd be so lonely without you, dear.
Why even now II you be not here
For the shortest day, there's a certain lack
Which does not vanish till you come back.
And II you were gone forever, dear,
The aching throat and the hot swift tear
Were feeble vent, and futile, due
To the aching absence, dear, of you.
should be so lonely without you dear.
Kiss me again, SO know you're near
II should reach for the old embrace
And my arms should close on formless space
In the midst of the world and its hollow cheer
In the gayest throng, Ishould thrill with fear
The fear Of the void which the world would be
If you were gone from the earth and me-
I should be so lonely without you dear,
Though still might heed the passing year;
Though l still might toll from sun to sun. \.
What would 1t be when the work was done!
You would not see and you could not share
And who, of the rest, would really carer
And II were gone and 'twere you we're left.
! know your breast were as much bereft
And though God were good and seraphs near,
If were away, while you were here,
l should be SO lonely without you, dear.
