The best cure for morbid nerves is
visit with nature, in a carriage or
on foot, where the cobwebs can be
blown. out of the brain by the wind
and fresh air, and the eyes gladdened
by the sight of the beautiful world

women, all seeking a remedy, and
evidently unaware that it lies at their

has become the fashion for men and
women of means to enroll themselves
among the guests at these resorts,
when they find that irregular living
impaired their ability to sleep and
otherwise repair the ravages of time
The novelty of being compelled to live
by rule appeals to them and they take
medicine in holiday spirit
There are two great classes of wo-
men-those who do not get outdoors
as often as they should, and those
whose gadding propensities interfere
with duty. The small intermediate
class lives nationally. performing nee
essary tasks at preparedness and re-
Taxing their nerves by rational exer-
else. They are seldom i'll in body and
never low in spirits and are altogether
nice to live with. They will tell you
that household duties or the work by
which they earn living keeps the
muscles elastic and the blood in active
circulation and disease has hard
struggle to get footing in their sys-
TENS. They will also say that such
healthy conditions prepare them for
enjoyment of outside things.
We loose our power of enjoyment
early in life, sometimes through over
work. We are like children with SO
many toys that none please, or the poor
little creatures of the slums whose
burdens are so heavy that the power
to enjoy is paralyzed. On rare occa-
siOns we find men and women we'll

at heart and always they are found to
be persons who have SO combined
work and play as to tire of neither.
They have avoided ruts by follow

understand the plight of those who
have passed from living to mere exist

Without doubt we would be better
In every way without many of the lux
uries we have come to regard as ne
cessities. Steam heat has spoiled us
by making us believe we cannot be
comfortable in rooms below summer
temperature. We use warm water in
stead of cold and commit the great
est piece of folly when We sleep in
warm bedrooms. The victim of in
somnia would do well to look right
there for the cause of wakeful nights
and restless days.
Every living creature needs fresh
air and plenty of it. Human beings

new faces and new scenes to make
one oblivious of little troublesome
