Why Worry

scorching sunshine. but against facts Of
climate and natural phenomena, against
strong physical reactions and fatigue and
pain and HUNGER and thirst. worry viii
not avail you.
Suppose you have not been sleeping
well; suppose you have an unconifort-
able habit of blushing. suppose you are
tongue-tied in company; none OF these
things COR others even more annoying)
will work on you any great harm. Men
have lived to be 50 and have been sound
and active in spite OF not sleeping four
hours a night on an average for thirty
years
People who blush or are tongue-tied
and awkward in company often win
friends through their very simplicity and
shy sweetness.
j know a man who for ten years was
merchant prince" During all that
time ha made himself miserable worry
ing about the possibility that he might
starve in a garrett some day. Recently
he met with financial ruin. His worry
ing had not impeIled him TO take pre-
cautions or save for "a rainy day" But
his worrying had olouded the ten years
that might have been happy. en- fNs
Why worry! There is no force for
good In worry; no Impulse TO ward off
evil; no strength to combat danger.
Worry makes nerves and wrinkles; II is
the traitor who opens the citadel OF your
personality to evil: It wears you out an
ticipating suffering, so that you are not
strong to combat It IL come It should; 1t
creates an atmosphere in which calamity
| flourishes.
When you have trouble that can he
met by action or warded off by fore
sight, by all means act and plan. When
you suspect or imagine an unpleasant
possibility why. brood over II until you
have manufactured you own little ''old
man of the sea- to carry as a burden?
When you face facts OF nature. OF
society, of your own personality, why
worry about the way they are going TO
work out?
If you come ever to some swift current
over which there is no bridge perhaps
you can turn and go some other way
If not there may be ferry to carry you
over-or perhaps you will find YOU can
swim or even ford the waters. The evil
you can imagine-the way out you may
not be clever enough to conceive. Why
worry?

The legs of the stork are long. the
legs Of the duck are short: you cannot
make the legs OF the stork short, neither
can you make the legs OF the duck long.
Why worry says the Chinese philoso-
pheg
The world is not at all as most Of us
would have IT, In summer we who work
in great cities must face long stretches
of hot days when we drag through our
toll in sweltering discomfort
But what do we accomplish II when the
first hot day of July arrives we begin to
worry lest this be the beginning of a hot
spell?' Neither heat nor cold is any the
easier to bear because we worry about
our ability to bear It.
Do you know why an aching tooth
troubles you most at night? During the
day your tooth has ached a bit, but YOU
have been busy about your tasks and
have had little time to spend in consider
ing the pain, or IL you did consider II
at all 1t was to dismiss 1t with the idea
that II It got unbearable you could run
in at your dentists office for a minute
and seek relief.
At night how different the case of your
tooth versus you! You lie down i'm fear
lest It begin to ache and thus cause YOU
