OVER-SENS|TWENESS
IT WILL PROVE 4 HANDICAP IN
 MANY WAYS.
MOST PEOPLE ENUMERATED
They Would Not Intentionally Wound the Feelings of Others, But Have Not Time to Study Char
 acter
By orison swet, Warden.

The great majority of people. no matter how rough in manner or bear ing. are kindhearted. and would much rather help than hinder a fellow be. ing. but they have all they can do 10 attend to their own affairs. and have no time to spend in minutely an alyzing the nature and feelings of those whom they meet in the course of their daily business. In the busy world of affairs. it is give and take, touch and go. and those who expect 10 get on must rid themselves of all morbid sensitiyeness. If they do not they doom themselves to unhappiness and failure.
 Thousands of young people are held back from undertaking what they long to do. and are kept from trying to make real their great life-dreams, be cause they are afraid to jostle with the world. They shrink from expos ing their sore spots and sensitive points, which smart from the slight est touch. Their supersensitiYeness makes towards of them.
 Driven 10 f-Destruction by Over er-Sensitiyeness. was the headline to report of one of the nest pathetic tragedies recently chronicled by the New York press. A young girl who had been brought up in the comfort and seclusion of a happy home was suddenly thrown on her own re. sources. The death of her father, and the entanglement of his estate, forced her out into the workday world To earn bread for herself and her aged mother. She secured a position as stenographer In a New York business house. and for a time made a brave struggle with fate But the tenderly reared girl was proud and over-sensi- tive. Her plain clothes excited com meni. and she shrank more and more within herself and away from the stylishly dressed young women in the office, who regarded her as queer. One day a thoughtless and boorish male clerk asked her why she didn't fix up a little and dress like the other girls The girl shrank from him as If stung and burst into tears. After this her sensitiveness increased. She compared her old darned gloves, patched shoes and threadbare dress with the fashionable attire of the girls about her. many of whom were not wholly dependent upon their work for a living, and made up her mind that she could stand the strain no longer So, one day, the money she usually spent for her luncheon went for bottle of carbolic acid, and she ended 1t all in the presence of her companions.

hHRS. ". h. SIMMONS, 1l19 F.. sth 4t1 St. Kansas City, Mo. member of
 the National Annuity Association. writes:
 My health was excellent until about year ago, when l had complete col lapse from overdoing socially. not get ting the proper rest. and too many late suppers. My stomach was in a dread ful condition, and my nerves all un- strung.
 .'I was advised by friend to try Pe- runa, and eventually bought bottle. l took 1t and then another, and kept using it for three months.
 At the end of that time my health was restored, my nerves no longer troubled me, and l felt myself once more and able to assume my social position. l certainly feel that Peruna 3s deserving Of praise"
 There are many reasons why society women break down, why their nervous systems fail. why they have systemic or pelvic eatarrh. Indeed, they are espe- cially liable to these ailments. No won der they require the protection of Peru na. It is their shield and safeguard.

The writer knows of an able. edu- eatea gentleman who thinks that near iv everyone who talks 10 him is try ing 10 poke fun at him CT to take ad- vantage ef him iH some way. After talking to q man on some ordinary topic. he will say to a friend: Il wonder what that man meant by such and such remark? Mas he taking a fling at me? Was he sticking th2 gaff into me?s The most innocent re. mark addressed 10 him is likely to be miscenstrued into a sheer or q slight. His sensitiveness makes him suspicious of everyonets words and motives. He imagines that he ha. many enemies. and that they are all the time watching for opportunities to stab him in the back He has every thing calculated to make one content ed and happy. but his life is embit- tered by fancied slights and injuries.
 Another victim of an exaggerated zensibility is a bright well-trained young lady whose intimate friends, and even her neag relatives. have to be continually on the watch for fear of wouuding her She broods over a joking remark until she magnifies it into an insult. She makes herself miserable for days over fancied slight. and exhausts the patience of her friends by asking them to explain what they meant by certain expres- sioas. looks or gestures. People who are al first attracted by her many amiaale qualities soon fall away from her because of the exaetioas imposed by her oyer-sensitiyeness.

People like this girl resemble sensi- tive plaDts whose leaves close the mo- ment they are touched You have to be constantly on your guard for fear of hurting them. and they have so many tender spots that you exert the greatest care not to infict a wound. They feel a slight more keenly than eoafser- grained persons would feel a blow The worst of f is. they are constantly taking offense where none is intended.
 Over-sensitiyeness. whether in man or woman. is really an exaggerated form of self-eonseiousness It is far removed from conceit or self-esteem. yet it causes ones own personality to overshadow everything else. A sensi- tive person feels that, whatever he does. wherever he goes. or whatever he says, he is the center of observa= tion. He imagines that people are critieising his movements, making fun at his expense, or analyzing his character. when they are probably not

 Morbid sensitiveness requires heroic treatment. A sufferer who wishes to overcome it must take himself in hand as determinedly ss he would if he wished to get control of a quick tenn per or to rid himself of a habit of lying. or stealing. or drinking. or any other defect which prevented his be- ing a whole man.

Manager Hogan. of the GAINESVILLE
team, is now carrying sixteen men.
The list includes five pitchers, FIVE in
felders, four outfelders and two
catchers. He will carry them the
remainder OF the season, as he does
not propose to run any more chances
of having some of the positions va
cant owing to illness of players or
their being incapacitated, as he wants
every man in fit shape for the last
month of the P. o. NJ. in which he
hopes to nose out Steubenville.
Now that Bill McKechnie is gone,
Wetzel of East Liverpool is probably
the premier third baseman of the P.
o. NJ. A Pittsburg critic says that
Wetzel is bound to be found in faster
company next year. He is one of three
men who made up the original East
Liverpool team. Alex Sweeney has
been of color throughout the season,
and it is a matter of some conjecture
that the management is keeping him.
Fleming is the third of the original
list and the fact that both he and.
Wetzel are in the 900 class would
go to show they have made good in
every way. Wetzel has not made an
error at third in some thirty games.
He is the fastest third baseman in the
league without the shaeow of a
doubt, and has been a tower OF

The game was nicely fielded one
