Short Road to Misery.

Begin by fancying that no one cares
for you that you are not of any use
to anybody-a sort of noneni5y to the
household, where your place would
not be missed, but easily supplied. Re-
fleet on your want of beauty, and lead
yourself to believe that no one can love
plain face, o. think you agreeable
because there are others more charm
ing. Fancy that everyone VINO looks
upon you makes mental comparison
which initiates against you ia favor
of some one else. Imagine that every
word said in jest is only meant to cover
deeper and more painful meaning
that every article Of wearing apparel
you don is criticised and ridiculed. Do
all this and your tendency to morbidity
of feeIing will so increase that in a very
short time you will become one Of
the mos. miserable Of human beings
