To the Sick 1t Rings Like a
KnelI to Happiness.
Can You Understand and Appreciate
It's Deep Meaning ?

Rev. Phillips Brooks said, .'The man

cries out, This alone is to live!'"
How many there arc, broken down in

they wake in the morning unrcfreshed
after restless night, with dull and aching
head impaired digestion, dispirited, Ian,

must be fiat on one side and slightly
curved on tho other. Boomerangs arc
not very heavy. Even those used for field
work arc light, and they derive their
power to do damage from their velocity
rather than from their weight. 1 am
