THE MAN WHO TALKS


 ease, which may be said of fear, in
 any disease. While the pollen of
 weeds Is said to be the cause of hay
 fever. the small per cent of the people the real cause of the trouble has been located. Doctors who do not have it know it is largely nervous disease and declare the way to cure hay fever; and doctors who are subject to the disease say things about the doctors who do not that are not fit to print. A Chicago doctor says: Men to supreme self-control. will abate tho evil greatly and create conditions tending toward immunity. The effect ed parts can be thought we'll of, rub organs itch can be refrained from:
 forced breathing through the nasal
 passages can be avoided. One can really take the fever out of hay fever right here at home and manage to sleep nights if one musters all ones powers of resistance. Clean, hopeful living, thinking and doing are pre- ventives, weeds or no weeds" The doctor who knows the cause says this is all derned nonsense. You can think what you please about 1t.
 We have now the greatest exhibit of the effect of fear upon the nations of the earth that has ever been made 1I. How slow the world has been in learn ing the simple truth that it is only the fear of God that can deliver the nations from fear of enc another; and the jealousies and the crimes and the self -debasement which comes of it. It is a well established fact Shat fear either as principle or a motive, Is the beginning of all evil" Place against fear faith and what have we the root of all blessings, the only he throne of God. How the moan ~of the Christ has come down the ages to us: "Oh, ye of little faith." and how it applies today to all the peoples of the earth. According to your faith be it unto you" says the scriptures. The world is in strife today because of it's lack of faith. |

One of the unaccountabIe things in C fe is that some men enjoy f1attery 'om a woman when they know she is lst tickling their ears for fun. The q verage man is fonder of praise than negro is of watermelon. Praise is t angerous: and never too true to be a bove suspicion. The poet tells us: { The love of praise, however conceal I by art, refgns more or less. and s lows in every heart" This universal :, we Is mans most vulnerable point | T nd he does not stop to think that raise from a degraded source carries ith it degrading force.
