was aroused: and l may add in passing
that he had shown on these occasions an
amount of shrewdness which would have
made him an excellent lawyer, if his in
vincible objection TO hard work had not
invariably interfered.

Conquer your moods.
Don't let your moods conquer you.
People who give way to moods never
amount TO much because they are
never masters Of themselves.
They never know In the morning

going to be cheering Or depressing

IL they feel like being good tenn

II they feel like swapping at every

People who suffer from moods should
be careful about their habits.
They should be regular about meals,
sleep, exercise and work.
The condition of the health has much
to do with moods, and there is moth
ing that contributes so much to health
as absolute regularity.
