a Eit Of the Blues,

1t is q hard saying, but "the blues"
may generally be traced to one or both
of two horrid qualities-greed and lazi-
ness. Nine times out of ten the low
spirited person is suffering from auto
toxication-from too much food taken
into the body and too little attention
paid to elimination or to proper exer-
else. The human mechanism can take
care of only certain amount of food.
After that point has been passed it
seems to turn sullen in its efforts to
ignore what 1t cannot help, and, al
though it is a wonderfully conducted
chemical laboratory up to the limit OF
Its own needs, it Is not at all amiable
about working overtime. The result Is
that all supernuous products sent to 1t
are permitted to lie round and become
poisonous. This poison is promptly
taken up by the blood and carried to
all parts of the body, including the
brain. The brain, which needs plen-
tiful supply of clean blood to enable
it to do It's thinking, is naturally in
dignant at finding poor and impure
blood supplied to it. and, although not
actually going on strike, it refuses to
be either pleasant or reasonable

In his volume Of "reminiscences Pro-

to Boston, where he met several nota-
bles.
Holmes spoke of Emerson stamping
his foot with rage when he could not
remember name. He mentioned the
Corbett Mitchell nrize6ght, which had
just taken place, and said, II own to a
lurking sympathy with prize6ghting,
perhaps because l am so untitled for
the ring myself" He tod Professor
Poulton he would never repeat to
any one what Tennyson said to him
when he entered his house. William
James pressed him to do so with the
assurance, There are no reporters
here" But Dr.. Holmes replied with
emphasis: II have said that will new
er tell any one. 1t was not a thing
that l should have supposed any man
would say to a guest he had invited to
his house."
