This distinguished custodian of the
health of a distinguished patient
might have gene much further in
the dictum he lays down. There is
no reason for man to reach so be-
fore he ceases 10 worry. He should
never begin to worry says the st.
Louis Times.
Worry is the root of all evil. 1t
has discrowned more health and UNI
seated more nerves than all the other
diseases. With women it often is
really disease.
Worry is fruitiess To think over
ill-going affairs in order TO try to
mend them is well, But there never
is just cause to worry.
Worry is self-made goad which
instead of stimulating and prlclllng
up the soul TO action causes it to
grow faint. 1t frets the heart and
robs and triturates aspiration.
There is no good in 1t, at all, any
time or anywhere.
Don't worry, whether so, or more,
or less.
Don't worry, work"
