that, despite it's complexity. there was no organ of the body readler to adapt itself to circumstances or more capa' ble of repaying ordinary care than the heert. This Is very true. and an ap- precia ton of that fact should cause us all the more carefully to follow Cha wise mans advice and to keep OUT heart with ell diligence. When wa have regard to the tremendous work the heart accomplishes We might well with Wesley say, Strange that harp of thousand strings should keep In tune so long" Estimated i'll scientific fashion, mans heart In twenty four hours performs an amount of work which If represented by the energy de manded for big lift would raise 12t tons of weight one foot high. Such calculation can be accurately deter mined by measuring the force expetd
