MENTAL DlSCORD.
An Uncompromisine Enemy to Happi-
ness and to Health.

ness and to Health.
1t is a law that every state of mind,
whether good or bad, affects every
cell in the system and is outpictured
in the body, says Orison SWEET Mar
den in Success Magazine. We are
thus the abiters of our fate through
our thoughts. emotions and passions.
The time will come when we shall
know how to refresh ourselves by
mental chemistry-that is, by holding
/ in our minds the antidotes Of the
things that have wearied us or veXed
US, by holding the mental attitude
which will neutralize the thought enc
mics that have thrown our bodies into
confusion.
There IS nothing so deadly to happi''
ness as mental discord. 1t paralyZes
the thinking ability and destroys the
power of concentration and effective
ness.
All diseases and sickness of what
ever kind are the outpicturing of
some form of discord. If the mind is
kept happy as possible it is difficult
for diScord to get fOothold in the
body. A happy mind is the best pos
sble health producer, disease killer
and diScord destroyer.
For centuries mans happiness was
looked upon by many earnest, think
ing people as a condition largely be-
Iyond his control. The- seemed to
think that it depended mostly upon
the temperament one happened to de-
velop and that there were other things
of so much more importance that we
should not consider it too seriously or
take precious time to cultivate it di-
rectly.
We are beginning to find, however,
that even as an economical invest
ment it pays immensely to make a
business of being happy and being
just as good TO ourselves as possible,
lalthough not in a selfish way. We
could not be good to ourselves in the
higher sense by being selfish.

Ancient Phryuia.

About $500 years ago Phrygia was
the home a dynasty of kings who
went by the name of Midas. The fame
of their wealth spread far westward to
the Greeks on the coast of Asia Minor,
and to Greece itself. We do not know
how rich they actually were, or how
prosperous their country was, but we
can judge somewhat from the ruins
which they have left behind. The
most famous is the so-called Tomb of
Midas, a perpendicular surface of
rock fifty-five feet high and fifty wide
covered with ornaments in a compli-
Gated rectangular pattern of crosses,
meanders, squares and other devices,
surrounded by a long Phrygian in
scription. 1t is unknown whether 1t
cific accident mentioned in the in
cription or some other of his dynasty
whose wealth gave rise to the famous
tradition, but ii Is evident that peo-
pie who could build such monuments
must have been not only prosperous
and wealthy, but somewhat highly
civilized. Scores of other monuments
and well-wrought tombstones are
scattered through the country.
Great castles were built to protect
the towns, and the great Royal
Road" to Persia passed this way. SO
abundant was labor and so prodigal
the kings that when rampant was
planned for the castle of Pishmish,
facing the Midas tomb a mile or more
to the east, the whole top of a huge
isolated rock was cut away, forming
a platform around the edge Of which
was left a wall of living rock. To-
day the site of the city of Midas is
occupied by a village of poor but in
dustrious Circassians, who bewail the
fact that they were ever persuaded
to leave their homes in the Caucasus
for a region where they continually
suffer from poverty.-National Geo.

A TactfuI Man.-In the second week
of his pastorate in West Side chape
the new minister appointed Henr!
Horn TO make a soothing address to g
band of the parish's insUrgent work
men. The pastor had never met Henry
Horn, because Henry seemed a hare
man to corner for a personal interview
but a study of church records had con-
vinced him that Henry possessed in
finite tact and was just the man fol
the delicate mission. The day after
he wrote apprising Henry of the new
duty laid upon him Henry's wife ap-
peared pale with apprehension.
It's out of the question" she said
Henry can't talk to anybody"
But he's just the man who can dc
it," said the pastor. Il choose him fol
his tact"
Tact" said she.
YES. tact. The church papers show
that last year eight men in the parish
who were engaged in hazardous occu-
pations suffered a fatal accident, and
in each case Henry Horn was appoint
ed to inform the family of their loss
If he had not been a tactful man he
would not have been chosen"
"Oh," said she, lit wasn't on account
of his tact, it was his suffering. II
took Henry so long to tell it that the
folks found out there was something
the matter before he got to the point

A DEED OF DARING.
Twenty seven Lives Saved BY One
Man In a Shipweck.

4 historic case Of daring and endur-
ancc rarely equalled in life saving an
mails was that Of the rescue of twenty
seven souls by one man in 1867. The
fishing schooner Sea Clipper was driv-
en- by the tempest against reef near
the Spotted islands on that coast and
speedily went to pieces. Captain Will
liam Jackman, in charge Of fishing
crew at these islands. had wandered
in direction he had never been be-
fore as if by inspiration and suddenly
saw the whole tragedy enacted before
his eyes Hurrying his one cOmpan-
ion back to the fishing station to sum-
mon help. he plunged into the bowling
swirl himself and eleven times swan
to the ship. Each time he took back
human being to safety. battling
splendidly against wind and tide.
Then help arrived, but no means
was available of communicating with
the vessel. 50 Jackman fastened rope
around his waist and made fifteen
more trips, returning with a caStaway
on each occasion. 1t was then diScOv-
cred that a woman had been overlook
ed and left on board. and the belief
was expressed that she was dead, but
he declared that he would not leave
her there living or dead. According
ly he plunged into the surf again and
soon bore the hapleSS creature To the
shore. where. divesting himself of his
nannels he wrapped them round her,
as she was almost at deaths door.
She expired a few hours later. but
lived long enough To thank her pre-
server for his noble efforts in her be-
half.-Wide World Magazine.
