There IS nothing better to keep mis-

Keep doing, whether it be at-work or

the busiest are the happiest. Cheerful,
active labor is blessing, likeness,
when long indulgei in, promotes
grief, and often selfishnes. Help such
sufferers by encouraging them to be
up and doing; rouse them to sense
OF the duties that await them, and
the welfare OF others that depend up
on them, and you have done more to
comfort them permanently than you
could by many words. Yet such ef-
forts, to be effective, should have no
