How To Stop Worrying. F.

The usual way people set abOu,
stopping worry is wrong one"
writes Mary BOardman Pogs in the
September Ladies Home Journal.
"That is why it is SO unsuccessful.
II q doctor lells a patient be must
stop worrying, the patient is likely
to say impatiently: 'Oh, Doctor,
don't l wish that could! But |
can't. II l could have stopped
worrying a year ago would not be
i'll nowl'-all Of which is probably
perfectly true. And the doctor
does not always know how 10 help
him, because both doctor and pa.
lient have an idea that it is posi-.
BILE TO repress worry through an ef.
fort of the will. This is a mistake
1t is not possible TO repress worry.
You have got to replace it with
something else.
Let me illustrate this by q fig.
ure. Suppose you we're TO go into
a completely dark room, wishing il
to be light. How would you eel
about the work? Would you try tc
scoop tho darkness up in buckets
and carry ii out at the door? No
at all. You would just open tht
windows and shutters and let il
the blessed sunlight. You woulC
replace the darkness with light
So il is with worry. The only pos
sible way to get rid Of it is to le
place The worry attitude of minC
with the non.worry attitude. Ano
this can always be done when In,
person is sincere and patient in hi
desire to bring it about. All b,
has to do is TO be passive and lie

O'Clock this morning Alfred Dreyfus
left the prison here in which he had
been confined since his return from
DEVILS Island, and proceeded to Vern,
where he took train bound tor Nan
tes, near the west coast OF France.
NJ. Viguie, the chief OF the secret
service, NJ. Dereault, the perfect, ar
rived at the prison after midnight,
bringing the minister Of wars order
for the release OF the prisoner. Drey-
fus walked from the prison to the
Boulevard Laenne, where he entered
carriage and was driven to the
Vern station, outside the town. Ma
thleu Dreyfus met him at the train
and accompanied him to Nantes.
While this dramatic turn in the

the famous prisoner of DEVILS Island
was no more noticed than that of an
ordinary traveller.
