Are you looking backward? II so,
think OF that woman who made the
mistake OF doing this and was turned
into a pillar OF salt. II you do not look
forward you may be sure that some OF
the sweetness OF your nature has
grown acrid. II you can no more see
the light and beauty OF life; II you
have become blind TO the pleasures OF
hope while regretting the joys that are
gone; IL this is so you are growing
old very fast and II is time for you to
make some new plans OF living and
start following them before the begin
ning OF the year. There Is nothing
that is known to the physician that
will prevent hardening of the arteries
as surely as a long look ahead. A
friend OF mine said to me the other
day that Sara Bernhard told her that
IN she accomplished all that she had
planned she would be one hundred and
thirty years old. | Immediately said
to myself upon hearing this. There is
Sara Bernhardt's secret OF eternal
youth"
The future must hold something for
you, even up to your latest breath.
There is no such thing as living In
the past. Remember the past Is past,
you poor little girl who is crying be-
cause man quite unworthy OF you
has left you with broken heart. But
take hope In the knowledge that there
is future for every one, and the
greatest and most wonderful thing
that Is given to man or woman Is not
love, but life. Live It and love II.
Don't whine as the years begin to
stretch out behind you, and, above all
else, never look back, for II you do
you will become like Lots wife. with
