A PIea For Leisure.

Individuals will rather helplessly re-
ply to a plea for leisure by saying:
what are we going to do? Competi-
tors hustle and we must do the same
or starye." Some will urge that the
American temperament demands CON
slant occupation, that "hustling" Is
our national trait. Well, have no
desire to insist that we go back TO
stagecoach days. But all Of us have
plenty of opportunity to tone down a
little. And why not try 1t? A ma
tional trait may be dangerous as well
as useful-may need control. If the
average individual would make more
leisurely use of his leisure there would
not be nearly as many cases Of nervous
prostration as there are now. Put on
the brakes a bit. Take things q little
co sier when you can. / know people
who are never content unless they are
doing" something. Such abnormal de-
sire for activity is not natural; it Is an
unnatural craving. 1t will be well for
US not to be so eager to crafty it.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, of Fergus
Falls, Mimi, fell and dislocated her
shoulder. She had a surgeon get it
back in place as soon as possible, but
it was quite sore and panied her very
much. Her son mentioned that he had
seen Chamberiain's Pain Balm adver-
tised for sprains and soreness, and she
asked him to buy her a bottle of it.
which he did. 1t quickly relieved her
and enabled her to sleep which she had
not done for several days. The son
was 80 much pleased with the relief it
gave his mother that he has since
recommended it to many others. For
