lazy People Are Batteries
That Can't Get Rechar6ed

psychological expression of fatigue,
showing itself in the lowering of the
electric charge in the human battery
Every one becomes tired, even those
whom we speak of as indefatigable;
but there are degrees of fatigue. The
fatigue may be more physical or
more mental, but one does not exist
without the other.
1t is known that fatigue shows
itself by certain chemical changes in
the body, al of the sustaining ele-
ments being consumed rapidly, and
kind OF intoxicat!on OF the cells
taking place, because they cannot
carry off the waste products rapidly
enough. The battery has become
clogged and does not reverse prop.

We know that we are tired mentally
through feelings Of fatigue all over
in the legs or arms, and then we
notice that the attention flags, we
lack will power, or, as we say, can
not think" lack the power of con-
centration. At bottom mental fatigue
is only the expression OF bodily ia
tigue; the battery has given out and
is slow in retil!ing. but because we
note this in consciousness our first
tendency is to make as little effort
as possible so as 10 give the battery
a chance to recharge itself slowly.
Consciousness having the power OF
selection viii not choose any effort
which it knows will result in fatigue
or pain. lin this way pain turns us
away from effort, to prevent strain.
One Of the main causes for our
rack OF initiative or desire TO mako
an effort is lack of interest. If we
are not interested we do not want to
do anything. But interest is II very
complex psychological state. 1t i'm
plies attcntion-and much more. Our
attention may be attracted without
our being really interested. The cur
rent is drawn from the human bat
terry, but it is forced out. 1t should
strain. The bombay" person IS
physioiosically unable to get inter
ested In anything.
We may, however, be Interested in
painful way. We may be held by
the pleasure in a story, an object or
n person, or may be painfully inter
csted when trying to overcome an
obstacle or defeat rival. Even the
misfortnnes OF others may interest
us, but painfully-there is an over
draft upon the battery. Normally

y drama, even though fictitious, il
it touch us, arouses state very
much different from mere interest
tears, fear, despair. anger-and the
physiological conditions of these
states are quite different The state
called interest is only an effect, and
the absence of interest results from
a general or partial weakening of
motor tendencies-thc battery will
not work-whence comes repug-
nance to effort.
There is not sufficient energy in
the battery, and the tendencies to ao
ton become negatived, or turned
aside, producing laziness, lack OF
tone in the system, apathy-all diff
ferent names for the same state,
which is general in frank laziness, in
senile weakness and in the i'll or
asthenic who simply lacks nerve
power. Avoiding all effort is due to
the consciousness OF this organic de-
bility. lack of power in the battery.
Habit is all important element in
action or the lack of it. Through
habit what was at first conscious and
live activity becomes purely phys
biological mechanical action. from
which consciousness is withdrawn.
When completely controlled by habit.
man is entansled in net which pre-
vents all spontaneous action and
leads direct TO utter laZiness.
The brain is not really inert at the
beginning, as some have claimed, for
every one is born with small capt
tai of fixed combinations and con-
trolls which would not lead very far
if left alone. We start with the pri-
mary instincts and the repetitions
which experience furnishes. The
habits are formed by grating action
upon existing instincts, letting the
battery operate along certain accus-
toned wires. and by selection, pick
ing out certain wires for the current
to work on
When the habit is formed it makes
it easy for the lazy 10 do the accus-
toned thing and difficult TO do the
unusual. Effort gives way to the ac-
custOmed and the electric force fol-
lows the line of least effort. Here
We have the final result of laziness,
tho refusal to do anything new, be-
cause an effort has to be made, and
the battery, having had few calls
upon it, lacks the force to accomplish
anything new.

tTHROUGH the influence of popu
lar speech we often confuse
Il activity and effort with very
different psychological states The
tendency to minimum OF effort is
not exceptional in humanity, and the
most active often act without MAX
ing any great effort.
Mankind may be divided into three
classes the highly active, whose
superabundance of power may show
itself in violent physical exercise, in
sports, intrigues, inventions of all
kinds, the Unsuitable pursuit Of
money, honor or fame They are like
well-adjustcd machines, always in
motion. with never jar. Enterpris-
Ing. bold, they seem never to tire, or
are refreshed quickly. This class
never tries TO fall to minimum OF
effort
The second class includes those of
moderate activity. These feel

fort. Their encrgy-capital is limited,
so they must ecOnomize 1t. These
represent the large majority Of man.

Tho third class is that Of the
"asthenics," who feel a dislike for
any effort, display laziness. apathy
and extreme inertia, but are not ac-
tually invalids. These are the people
