Causes and Care of Nervousness.

Causes and Care of Nervousness.
There are five causes Of nervousness,
says Human Culture.
(a) Low vitality of the nervous sys-
tenn.
CO. The faculties of self mastery be-
ing weak.
(c) Loss of sleep.
(dD The use of improper foods and
drinks.
(e) Association with cratic, ex-
citable, nervous, idiotic, insane, cynical
and pessimistic people.
When the life force is constantly
leaving the body at the finger tips, at
the feet, through the eyes, at the
knees and at the elbows, a person be-
comes nervous. In order to overcome
these losses person should learn to
control every movement. A restless
foot, an uneasy eye, swinging leg,
involuntary motions, trembling voice,
an uneasy step, jerky actions, anger,
irritability, pessimism, sudden starts,
ETC., are signs Of nervousness. Unless
person develops his faculties Of self
mastery, unless he increases vitality
of the nervous system, unless he gets
sleep which is necessary each and ev-
cry day, unless he eats the right kind
Of foods and drinks the right kind of
drinks, and unless he associates with
the right kind Of people, he will be-
come physical and mental wreck; he
will become old looking and haggard;
he will die before his time

TRIBUTE TO COLLINS.
Baptist Minister Eulogizes Late Mayor
of Boston.

The infrequency Of eulogies by
Protestant ministers, delivered on the
lives of Catholics in public life, no
matter how well deserved, gives greater
force to the high praise accorded
Patrick A. Collins, the late mayor Of
Boston, by the Rev. Herbert S. john
son, Baptist minister, in a sermon
delivered in his church in Boston re-
Gently. He said:
Mayor Collins believed in and
practiced the militancy of righteous
ness; with high ideals Of religion and
patriotism, he was a practical poll
tician and man Of affairs for a whole
generation.
ITO my personal knowledge, Bos-
ton is cleaner city morally today
than it would have been had he not
been mayor. Many Of our young men
and women are happier and purer and
more successful in business because Of
him. Many faraway New England
home is indebted to the man who
shielded its sons and daughters, sub
jected to the dangerous perils of
metropolitan life. The friendship of
the churches Of Boston, irrespective of
denomination, or creed or race, which
Mr.. Collins undoubtedly possessed, was
due in considerable measure to his veto
of licenses for proposed amusement
places dangerous to morality; also to
his actual removal from existence of
some well known dance halls which
were crowded with young people and
which were conducted in such a man
ner as to demonstrate their managers
to be able lieutenants of the devil.
Personally, feel great regret that the
Mayor has gone. for am fearful that
the protection of the young in the
future will be more difficult than ever: y
OF the mayors active participation
in the work Of cleansing the city OF
evil, he said:
| HE was an idealist in the thick
of the fight. He was bold, agrees
sive and loyal in contact with all
kinds of everyday men, some of then
grafters. thieves and time-servers

Perfect and Not Perfect.

A little calm reflection and careful study
OF the Bible would relieve many persons
of needless perpexitv in regard to the use
of the tern perfection as applie' to the
Christian.
Every true Christian is perfect in the
sense of being n real Christian, and OF hav

lacking he is not whoe-a perfect,
Christian. What these parts are when
are necessary to constitute one perfect

being present in order to the being of the
real Christian that | call your attention;
