NATURES SWEET REMEDY.

A contributor to the London EN-
advice 20 the children OF this busy gem
grafton with regard to the preservation
OF mental and physical vigor. Lack OF
repose. she claims, Is a prime factor in
the causation of nervous diseases.
"'rhe constant rush in the social ana
business world, the frantic pursuit OF
pleasure and amusement are frequent
precursors oc nervous Ill health"
The working woman, we are told,
ages quickly because she refuses to
rest enough. She comes TO her meals
in tagged condition, and is surprised
that she has no appetite. a short bodily
rest before meals would make all the
difference. Systematic resting at meal
times is better than desultory. though
longer continued rests, at other times.
The writer quoted insists that nine
hours sleep Is not too much for those
who are engaged In strenuous mental
work, ana that those who take sufficient
rest win do better work ana keep
younger and healthier for a greater
length OF time than those who dcn5

A LITERARY DISCOVERY.

We find in the current number Of the
Improvement Era the following state
ment in regard to the authorship Of a
well known hymn in the l.. ID. ;.
Hymn Book, over the signature of
President Joseph f. Smith. We copy
the article in full, In order to ala in
the dissemination of the Information 1t
contains.
THE familiar hymn on page 80 OF the
Iatter-day saints Hymn Book, begin
ming, softly beams the sacred dawn
ing Nas for a long series OF years
published over the signature OK Jphh
Jaqucs. During all the time he was
known as the author OF the hymn, but
in the late revision, ~ which an EFFORT
WAS made to discover the true aWhoi-
ship OF the hymns as far us possible, u
was found by searching the Mtllenhlat
Star, IN which many of the carry
hymns were published. that this par
toular hymn appeared in that puph-
cation over the signature Or Harvey
L. Birch ana under the apprehension
that II. J.. Birch was the bona tide au-
thor, the name OF John Jacques was
dropped and BirCh's name substituted
In the late revised edition of the hymn
book
"rhis change induced many inqu.-
ries and considerable criticism, some
pronouncing IL unfortunate and aston
ishiug that an honest man Ike Elder
John Jaques should permit his name
10 be used SO many years as the au-
thor OF a familiar hymn, when IN rear
ity he was not he author. Others, OF
apparently superior literary tnteli-
geuCe, know fun well that the hymn
was much better than anything Jofln
Jacques had ever written.
Under these circumstances. the
matter was looked into little fur
Their and one day was discussed in the
presence OF President John r. Wnder
who Immediately recognized In the
name OF Harvey L. Birch the carly
nom de plumo OF Elder John Jaques,
and stated that he himself was IA
miiiar with the fact that many OF the
early articles OF Brother Jaques FOR
the Star were written over this sigma
ture. The truth IS that John Jaques is
the author Of the beautiful hymn.
Softly beams the sacred dawning, no
having first written II under the So
briquet, Harvey L. Birch. The change
In the revision Of the late edition OF
the hymn book arose from the fact
that those who revised 1t did not know
the facts in this case as herein set
forth, and hence the error. This cor
recllon ana statement is due 10 inc
honored name OF Elder John Jaques;
and the Information that he wrote the
hymn under the name Of Birch should
be as widely known as the error which
was made In changing Il. II ~ TO be

positive that the hymn was superior
TO anything ever written by Brother
