When you feel depressed go where
you can find a mirror and look at
yourself in the glass. What do you
see? A face as long and as serious
as a deacon's, forlorn, detected hui
man being, apparently without friend
on earth.
Now begin; draw your face up into
the semblance of a smile; make 1t
broader and broader until you pro-
duce nearly perfect representation
outwardly of the merriest spirit in the
world--then laugh outright ha! ha!
