GOOD TO LAUGH.

Health, nm English publication, says;
II is good TO laugh. There is probably
pot the renotest corner or little inlet
OF the minute blood vessels of the body
that does not feel some wavelet from
the great convnlsion produced by
hearty laughter shaking the central
man. The blood moves more rapidly
probably its chemical, electric or vital
condition is distinctly modified. It con-
veys a different impression to all The
organs of the body MS ii visits them
on that particular mystic journey when
the man Is laughing from what il does
at other times. The time may come
when physicians shall prescribe to II
torpid patient so many peals Of laugh

Il time.
