Colnc. Ink less, anu DrtttI. Ii you
have secrets that do not concern the
pubic. keep them to yourself; the e1-
change of 'confdencef' encourages
gossip and worry.
8. Avoid excess of every kind. Good
habits are rs powerful . bad habits.
A good habit is the source of constant
pleasure, as bad habits are the source
of constant worry.
6, Don't boast of your membership
in the Don't Worry Club. and of your
superiority over others. There is
seldom anything substantial back Of a
boast
:. No good member of the Don't
Worry Club will have too much con-
fidence in lawyers OF docsors: to call a
lawyer or doctor is often an indication
that you are worrying about something
that might have been avoided.
s. Success has its worries. but they
are not 40 great n the worries that
attend faffure L<.afks sanse have
had some other virtue than failure in
life: than poverty. Failure in this
fat old world often suggests laziness.
Q. We sometimes doubt twhen we
fail to live up to the principles of the
Don't Worry Club that anyone ever
ha4 an ursCiG1A friend. but refusal to
worry is a good friend A good char
scter is q friend you can depend upon,
and good work for your employer is
another.
10. Some men impose on others. but
their success in this direction must
cause them worry. VOC should help
your friends, rather than impose on
them. Be as kind and helpful as you
can to yosr neighbors, and you will
not worry a great deal because of neg
lact of duty in Hindoostan-

the world that it must be a source OF
satisfaction to be a strong man. Try
IL: refusal to worry will help you.
IL. A little common sense is worth
more than genius Patience is COM
mon sense; fairness is common sense;
honesty is common sense; refusal to
worry is common sense.
Is, Some very eminent men say
there is no such disease as hydrophob-
Ia that what passes for hydrophobia is
the result of worry over a harmless
dog bite. Don't argue about this ques.
tion, or any other. but it is evidence
that some of the wisest men regard
worry as very harmful.
Ia. The barharians were dishonest:
successful raid was considered as
sufficient excuse for bad conduct But
civilization has discovered that hon
esty is the best policy: that success is
not possible without it. If you hope
to avoid worry, you must therefore
avoid bad conduct.
10 Every man thinks with horror
of being burden in his old age.
Every member OF this club, therefore.
will endeavor by means of frugality,
industry and AS good sense rs he can
command. TO provide for the newt
able rainy days with which our lives
end. Much of the worry of the old is
worry over poverty that was unneces-

i6. The best members of this club
will be temperate; few will drink
moderately, but always with con-
seriousness that it is n bad habit to be
closely watched. No man who has
been intoxicated can fail to worry
over his disgrace when sober. Intox-
ication is one bad hahis for which
