HATE AND HEALTH
The influence of mind over matter

The influence of mind over matter
is mysterious, debatable ground. and
many cults have risen through the
ages and formulated systems and
codes and even religious creeds on
the subject. To what extent this in
fluence goes has not been definitely
determined, but waiting the religious
aspect of the question and coming
down to prosaic pathological facts.
it is now we'll understood that our
ungoverncd tempers have strong
influence for evil upon the state of
our health. and that plague of the
race in all parts of the world. known
as a cold" can be brought on, ag-
grarated and even developed into
pneumonia by mere fit of temper.
A recent authority on tn subject says
this about it which is we'll worth
considerin,g and will show you very
practical and selfish reason for keep
ing the roison of hate out of your
minds and souls. especially right
now when We are getting ''het up
with politics here in Florida:
Another thing that will bring on
a cold is a furious fit of temper.

of temper does not chill you. but il
does generate tremendous excess

THE TENDENCY TO KNOCK

An editor started out the other
morning to ask his friends for sub
iects for a few editorials. He inter
viewed six of them, and asked each
what he should write about the next
day Five of them suggested that he
.ttake fall' out of something-mean-
ing in the language that he write
scathing criticisms of this or that.
One fellow suggested that he say
something about the advantages of a
thing in which he was himself inter
ested
five-sixths Of the people interview
ed wanted to knock something. Not
one out of the six had helpful sug-
gestion to make-at least not an I'M
selfish suggestion, for the lone individ
ual who wanted something boosted
knew it would be to his interest to
boost it. So the editor went back to
his office somewhat disguised with the
tendency of people to knock, and he
opened his mail.
There were eight or ten letters ad-
dressed to him. Some of them in
tended for publication, and some of
them were not Those intended for
publication, without exception contain
ed a knock. and in few instances
the knocks were so radical, so person
al, so abusive that the letters could
not be printed. The balance of the
letters were condemnations of certain
statements which the editor had
made during the past few days. And
still no hint but everybody in the
world wanted to knock.
Then the editor did as he pleased to
do. He wrote several little articles OF
pleasantness. never knock being in
evidence. He felt good from top to
bottom saw much of charity in the
world, much of happiness much OF
beauty and told about it. He didn't
allow the tendency to knock to affect
him in his writings And while folks
didn't take the trouble to write to him
he felt and knew that his efforts to
brighten the world a little where ap-
preciated. So he came to the conclu
sion that the tendency to knock is
only superficial; that people speak
that way without serious thought;
that at heart most men are kindly
but the heart lies deep in the body,
like the pure water that flows beneath
the surface of the earth. You must
bore for it, but it is worth boring for
