Keep Your Moral, Mental and Phys
 icnI Machinery Working.
 The machine that lies idle is far more liable to injury than the machine that runs.
 Air and dampness do more damage than wear and tear. Let the machine remain Inactive awhile, and the coat. ing formed by the corroslOn soon coy, CTS the bright metal and the parts be come stlff and cranky.
 4 man negleCts the working parts Oi his body. Normally these parts should be exercised. He indulges his members in idleness. Whatever vitality and working force they may have had when in continued use, neglect causes the machinery to run stiGly. It is the rust.
 A man may neglect to exercise bis working brain forces. He may have ever so quick a mind, but if he does not use his mental machinery the rust of idleness is soon over 1t.
 A man may neglect to use the moral  forces that are in him. There Is weakening somewhere. The machine lets down. And soon the parts are rusted.
 When the primary or the convention or the ballot box, working parts of gov. ernment, are neglected the rust col lects. The machinery works poorly. Il may break down.
 Keep your body working without friction by systematic exercise. Keep your mind bright by using 1t.
 Keep your soul clean by working 1t. And so for society nIne-tenths of It's evils are caused by the idleness of it's necessary working parts. - Chicago Journal
