OF so, and then get up again. Finally his
nerves gave way. There Is little question
but that when he killed himself he was
insane-made so by sheer nervousness.
Many man is to-day travelling the
same road. He is not quite well. His
digestion is not quite right. His nerves
are very far from right. He carries his
business home with him and sleeps with
it-or rather tries to sleep with II. In
the small hours of the night, business
molehls become mountains of disaster.
He can hardly wait till morning comes
to get back to his business Sleep Is
impossible. He makes up his mind TO
that at some time during the night. He
gets up-makes a light, and reads ana
smokes the balance OF the night.
Hardly a day passes but you hear q man
tell of passing such a night Tell him
that he had better look out; that he had
better see a physician, and he will tell
you that II amounts to nothing: that he
will be all right pretty soon; that he viii

When a man starts to work all day and
smoke all night without sleep, II isn't
very long until he starts for the grave crave,

but It will wear out. There are some
things that 1t cannot stand. You can

If he is nervous and "headachky," he
takes a cocktail and smokes a cigar. BY
the time night comes on he is in worse
condition than he was the night before.
He is driving himself to death. He Is
living on his capital. He is making
greater drafts on his health than his
deposits amount to. He Is not putting
enough food into his blood. He Is not
passing enough nutriment to his bodys
credit. He Is continually drawing out
more vitality than he is putting in. Ev-
cry man knows what will happen IL he
does that sort of thing TO his bank ac-
count. Pretty soon he won't have any.
The man who makes overdrafts on his
health will some day wake up to find his
drafts dishonored. They win go to pro-
