NO USE TO WHINE.

There isn't anything in the world
more dlsagreeable than a whining per-
SON He whines if it is hot He wines
if it is cold He wines at this. he
whines at that, he whines at every
thing. Whine, whine, whine. 1t is just
a habit he has fallen into. There is
nothing the matter with him. 1t is
just a bad habit.
The winner is generally an idle per-
son or a lazy one. What he needs is to
be set to work-at real hard work
mental or physical. Some work that
will interest him and engage his whole
attention, and he will not have time to
WHINE We know two women. One of
them does her own homework and
takes care of her horse besides. She is
happy and singing all the day long.
The keyboard of her life sounds no
whining note. 1t is a pleasure to be
with her-a good, wholesome tonic to
watch her. The other woman is so
situated that she does not have to work.
Nothing to do but to amuse herself.
She has no zest in life, no interest in
anything. She is a bunch of selfish
ness and whines at everything. Whin-
ing has become such a habit with her
that her most casual remark is tinged
with whine She is misera Bile herself
and makes everybody else in her pres
ence miserable. She is a weakling, a
parasite. a drag, a heavy weight on
somebody all the time.
Get the WHINE out OF your voice Or IL
will stop the development and growth
of your body. 1t will narrow and shrink
your mind. 1t will drive away your
friends; it will make you unpopular.
Quit your whining; brace up; so to
work; be something; stand for some
thing; fill your place in the universe.
Instead of whining around, exciting
only pity and contempt, face about and
make something of yourself. Reach up
to the stature of a strong, ennobling
manhood, to the beauty and strength of
a superb womanhood.
There is nothing the matter with you.
Just quit your whining and go to work.
From Medical Talk.
