YOUNG HUNTER TOO

Trout! An deer!" he was saying.

BILLY was death on bears. He used
to tell us how his uncle killed a
grizzly out Oregon way with a lead
pencil-eh, Billy? So Billy took a

OF REST
: TO THE BUSINESS MAN

There are men, and plenty of them,
who start the business of the day, or
thinking about the business OF the
day, almost as soon as they are out
of bed. and keep it up with scarcely
an interval until they turn in at
night, says the London Express. The
business kilograms and letters brought
to the bedroom in the morning and
the continuation of mental labor and
worry into the small hours of the next
morning, until sheer inability to go
on compels reluctant halt for sleep,
are evil modern phenomena that occur
too often. And the hurried midday
lunch is not worse for the digestion
than it is for the mind, which is thus
cheated of it's due pause for rest.
This is certainly not the way to get
most work done in the long run. The
men who have put most work into
their lives and been able to keep on
longest at it have been men, like Mr.
Gladstone who knew the full value OF
absolutely banishing work from their
minds for some time every day. In
the height of political excitement Mr.

SHREWD DOCTOR MADE
HIS PATIENT WALK

All doctors are not as careful OF
the welfare of their patients as they
might be. Here is a story of one
who. went the limit. He is the pro-
prietor of famous health resort not
far from Washington. When he re-
ceives patient for treatment he
says:
Now, | want it understood that
unless you do exactly as I say, there
is no use of you staying
This rule sometimes requires him
to be very harsh, but he never hesi-
tates. He acts on the theory that he
can better afford to offend a single
patient and lose him than to have that
patient go back home and tell his
friends Doctor So-and-So has done
him no good.
Not long ago a Washington clergy
man went to this resort for treatment.
The doctor looked him over on his
arrival and said:
while you are here you must take
long walks every day.
"Bnt | can't take walks" replied the
parson, Il haven't done any walking
in years. My heart won't stand it. u
They argued the question quite
The Cook County herald., 1902-10-25

Gladstone could always contrive to
shut out politics and official business
for an hour or two while he read Greek
or novel.
One man may seek his relaxation
with tennis racket or bicycle, an
other with book, another in talk (not
about business); but complete relax
alton in some form every man should
have every day. And an entire and
absolute holiday, long enough to
count, is no less indispensable every
year: The meaning of "rest" varies
with the individual; to one it is rest
to climb Alps or cycle fifty miles q
day, to another to lie under tree or
on the beach. But in some form the
rest is inevitable, unless the break
down is to come. The hours from
which business is entirely excluded
every day, the weeks from which it
is entirely excluded every year, must
never be neglected by the man who
means to last.
The Cook County herald., 1902-10-25

warmly. AS the clergyman and the
doctor were good friends, the latter
was more lenient than usual. How
ever, he bided his time. The next
afternoon the physician said to the
clergyman:
''lts a nice oay. I would like you
to go horseback riding with me"
Riding they went. When they were
about eight miles from the sanitarium
the physician said: "Oh, doctor, won't
you get me that flower by the road
side. I don't like to leave this horse" :"
AS soon as the clergyman was on
the ground the doctor gallOped off
with both horses, and the clergyman
was compelled to walk back to the
sanitarium. Upon his arrival he was
very angry and was forpacking up and
leaving at once. There was no train
that night so he. was forced to- stay
few hours longer. The next morn
ing he came down radiant and good
natured. Doctor" said he. Il was
pretty sore at you last night, but / for

first good sleep l have enjoyed in
months. Hereafter I'll obey your
orders implicitly. y."-Washington Star.
