Let us see: This woman being asked at the close of one of her lectures, “Do you ever worry?” replied, “No, I am too clever.” Which was not only « clever answer, but @ practical point of view. Mrs. Chaney knows that worry, over-exertion, fear, etc, Influence not only the mind, but also the body. No fact ts better established by experiment than that agitation, tension, anger, etc, actually changes the structure of the body, affects its weight, temperature, ete., and its capacity to resist. Im a multitude of cases disease is mentally produced. The people ought to know the se facta, so well known to of the mind. And especially should they know how to avold worry and fear and anger and thetr effects. In a single word the first great remedy is Relaxation. At some hour during each day unstring the bow strings. Relax both body and mind. Give the muscles and nerves a complete rest. Then relax the mind. Drop every care for i few minutes. Stop trying to do, Con- temt yourself to be. Then practice deep breathing. Anybody's méthod will do, vided it fills every lung cell and sends tho diaphram as far down as it will go. There is nothing new In all this. And there ts nothing fanciful about it. It is simply being “clever” enough to take care of yourself. If Mrs. Chaney's simple philosophy were followed by more peo- ple there would be less uisease and misery and ‘crime and more hap- piness in the world. ———_——__ The blatant P. in telling where its trusty Mercuries carried the news of peace, Tuesday, forgot to cover Purgatory and Puyallup, and we understand that the Angel Gabriel was also overlooked. — Boat bet today—the next peace conference will be held in an air ship to sidestep the butt-insky summer resorters, ——— Well, Japan has a few “Banzais” left, that they are using them much. _---- If negotiations had continued much ‘onger at Portsmouth Witte would no doubt have secured Tokio as a Russian coaling station. _ At any rate, the Japs are good fighters—in the far east on American soll. udents pro- but we haven't noticed ‘but not ‘Those morry knockabout comedians, Irreducible Minimum and Non Possumus, are now at rest If you want to # {t exemplified—tf you ‘want to 200 above © upwards Seep | studenta— Sepyes 4 students—at thelr work > 4 @own to the Collins Bidg, James and MODERN BUSINESS COLLEGE Fouts fees) ae yee oe ws sare a average 9 Becond, top floor, and visit the day or even- ol classes of COMPANY Must be Practiced Mt HOME Fed Grty MAN NERS eS a ED These are “t Wr ' t muree, not intended f pany me when someor be might ily ashamed If w child te 1 to make a hovel of the fork, and p ple} into bis mouth in big chunks at home, when company will he tip down, and take the ple in smalt} mouthfuls?
