Can You Smile?

Did you over try smiling? 1t doesn't

pays the other fellow. When your liver
IL turned bolton. eide up ther nothing
that will turn It back like smile. And
when the other fellows liver Is bottom
Idle up md he can't smile himself, yon
owe II to him and to yourself to help
smile it back. We all want our ivers
right and 1t takes smiles to do the work.
And there's digestioD-how much 1t
depends on a smile! Nothing ferments
the food like Il scowl Oh the face. And
the scowl not only sours your food but
it helps sOnr yonr neighbor's food. And
yOur neighbOr's scowl reacts back on
you, and dyspepsia broods over you both
like a somber bat Aud your wife's life
is soured, and her stomach and the
children crawl under the bed when they
hear Jon come. And all because You did
uoi emile and keep it up. Not only your
liver and yonr stomach and your family
and your fnends suffer, but yonr whole
mind il warped and your nervous system
