health, and also because I have con
crete example of a friend who for years
has been an habitual. persistent hater.
and who believed that hate Is as war
rantable IN certain cases as love.
This person, a woman, has been told
many times that hate Is an actual poi
son, but she had flOuted the statement,
replied, I shall hate all I want to-
She is now in the sere and yellow
leaf, and that which should accompany
old age as honor. love, obedience, troops

a victim of constant Authorizations, a
confirmed hypochOndriac, frequently

full of poison"
And so it is; the poison Of hate. Her
indulgence for so many years in hat

Our thoughts produce our emotions:
