They take things less seriously down

live their lives easily. There is lack

to take things lightly. With no. strug.

against untoward circumstances, they
calmly resign themselves to the fate of
the unseen hand, In family life there
IS much affcctionnte generosity and

Sound Thouohts-Sound BODY.

You may have q well body, but you
must begin to build it with your word.
Instead of:laying up weak. and sick
word in,your body, begin now to
speak the word Of strength and health
and keep it up. Don't look at what
has been. ! Lots wife tried that, and
she never got beyond the past. Clear
out Of your mind ell this rubbish about
URIC acid, gladstone, ETC., and you will
find that nome of them has lotlgment
in your body. The thought makes the
body and determines the condition Il
lives In. Thoughts Of health are living,
eternal things, and they work with
their irresistible power Of almightlness
to tone up the organism to their own
high key Of harmony and capsbiliv.-
