Sound suggestions follow for particu-

the play-faculty with our children, and
implored to take ourselves less seri-
ously-this last a comprehensive hint.
Like the tonic of a cold bath comes the
chapter on Brain Impressions. Rid
yourself of distorted ideas of yourself,
she says, and do not hamper yourself
with false views of your neighbor. Rec
Ognize the truth in unkind criticism
and you will forget to resent the spirit
of the critic. What a saving of nerve
friction! Thank the man who has fired
at you a volley of abuse-ne has thrown
light on a false attitude. Forget i'm
pressions of pain. The constant recall
ing of unpleasant impressions engraVes
deeply on your brain what you should
wish to forget. Simple freedom from
any fixed idea of yourself is mental
health. Do not tell out your woes it
does not relieve the mind, it simply
gives a tendency towards bad feeling.
The writer has a good word for moods
we understand, and respect in others.
Who would fear what she terms lone
of Natures gifts, a sort of melody
which strengthens the harmony of life
and gives it fuller tone?
Well worth the price of the book are
he mastery pages given to Sympathy
and Tolerance. What slOwly-grOWing
plant is tOlerancei 1t blossoms not at
the century's end, but waits for a mil
Iennium for its fruit to mature. In
tolerance, the worst form of nervous
is an unwillingness for 9TH
7rs to live their own way. 1t is intense
selfishness in it's indulgence, mon
strOus and absurd. 1t is not necessary
10 great reforms, although it often goes
with them, always a hindrance that
must be set aside. The gentle Nazarene
is cited as the greatest example of the
tolerant reformer. When you can COM
mand a spirit of Don't Care, or willing
ness that persons and circumstances
may be what they VIII, then you are
free. New power comes with this free
dom, and a healthy nervous system.
Would you live at peace with others?
Keep your distance? At peace with
happy or unhappy, but live and work
according to the grand, harmonious
avs of the universe.
For nervous patients actually i'll are
some concrete rules that should shorten
illness days or weeks if read and obey
ed steadily. l cannot resist quoting
four of these:
Remember that Nature tends towards
health. All you want is nOurishment,
fresh air, exercise, rest and patience.
If you cannot sleep, don't care. Get
all the rest you can without sleeping.
That will bring sleep when it is ready
10 come, or you are ready for it. Don't
wonder whether you are going to sleep
Or not. Go TO bed and rest, and let
sleep come when it pleases.
Think about everything in Nature.
Follow the growing of the trees and
lowers. Remember all the beauties of
Nature you have ever seen.

AN ESTIMATE OF BRYAN.

A Pen Picture of the Candidate, as Drawn
by a Personal Acquaintance IN Nebraska.
Lancaster, Pa, New Era.
Below we print an extract from a
letter written by a Nebraska gentleman
to friend In this city, which fur.
nishes an accurate estimate OF the
Demo Popo candidate for President of
the United States, as formed by man
who, IA he states knows Mr.. Bryan
personally. IL is only one Of many
similar assertions, emanating univer-
sally from people who are closely
acquainted with Mr.. Bryan, which
prove in stronger terms than any other
agency, the utter inability and in
capacity of the self constituted, auto
cratic candidate of Pupulism. This is
the graphic way the Nebraska gentle
man expresses his views:
''As to Billy Bryan, we belong to tho
same church, First Presbyterian.
have known him ever since have been
in this city, nearly 10 years. He is a
very nice, pleasant gentleman. He is
all wind and winning: a good talker
but no depth most ordinary lawyer;
one hundred in our city are his super.
ior. He practiced in the Justice Of
peace courts almost entirely and seldom
had case in the district court and
only two cases in the States supreme
court in nine years. At least, that is
all we can find.
at frightens the better element here
to think Of his election to the Presi-
dency. That will not likely occur, but
if, by some hook or crook, it should, the
better element of the Democratic party,
as well as Republicans, certainly feel
that 1t would be one Of the greatest
calamities. Remember, he does not
represent the Democratic party, but
the Populist party, which is the most
dangerous that has ever sprung into
existence in this country Of ours. 1t
means tear down; not build up. The
election will be close in this State (Ne.
braska), but ! believe Mckinley will
carry it, possibly by not over 5000,
| but 500 is enough.
~ hope and pray that every good
government. loving citizen in this great
land Of ours may cast his vote against
W. j. Bryan for the Presidency of
these United States, and am sure
God will add His blessing"
