i { Bach of us has within him two identities, First, there is the physical self—the animal, Second, there is that self that distinguishes us from all| H& HAS MADE GOOD IN A FIGHT other animals—the mental man, There is no need of discuss ing here the question as to whether the mental self is again divisible into a thinking self and a spiritual self (soul) The animal man or physical self is merely the human body WITH THE WORLD BY SAVING, “My advice to all boys who have to work for a living is to open a aay with all its marvelous machinery for renewing itself and keep-| logs account and start early to put ) & p ing alive, The physical body also prepares the food for our brains and keeps alive our nerves and thinking apparatus, Our mental self is a sort of an aristocrat, and it often treats our physical self most shamefully, It regards the body much as kings and princes and Aldriches and Morgans regard common workday people, That is, it compels the body to work and pay taxes (in nourishment) to brain and nerves, and in return it pays the least possible wages and demands the long est possible hours ° * For the wages of tRe physical body are food, air, relaxa tion, rest, sleep. And as a king, for his amusement or ambition, sends his troops trampling across the grain fields of the common peo- ple, so the mental man, for dis pleasure, sends the poison of liquor and tobacco sweeping over the work places of the phys- ical body, And as land thieves and trust builders take more than their share of the fruits of*nature's bounty, so the mental man with restless brain, robs the blood, or life current, of more than itg share of nourishment. The result? The body, overworked and underfed, can no leomger pay its taxes of nourishment to the brain, it loses cour age (tone), and its activities close down Harriman-the-mind is being punished by Harriman-the body. Harriman-the-body needs only a few ounces of nitrogen and fat and water each day to be a hale and healthy animal A handful of wheat and a glass of water would do in a pinch But he has neglected the ounce of food that he might seize a railway or a county, He bas chosen a million rather than a meal, and now Har riman-the-body has fallen ill, It is discouraged. It thousand times toiled patiently to digest and prepare the food that Harriman-the-mind has hastily hurled into the stomach It has been ready to pour the nourishing products of its mar- velous chemistry into the blood stream, only to have the auto erat, Harriman-the-mind, summon the blood to heat that rest-/ less brain in order that some new project may be thought out | So the greedy mind has robbed the patient body until the chain of wonderful factories in the body are shut down or run ning only half time, and the blood corpuscles are either on strike or locked out. And so Harriman-the-man is starved, though he can have anything on earth-he wants to cat. And the doctors say to Harriman-the-mind: *¥ou must rest; sleep, lie in the sun, breathe lots of pure air and KEEP YOUR MIND QUIET.” So Harriman-the-mind—the king and autocrat—must bow to Harriman-the-body; must repay the slights and insults of years; must square the debts of sleepless, scheming nights and bolted meals; must make concessions to the striking corpuscles and sign an eight-hour day agreement with the heart and liver and kidneys. has a * . . The trouble was that Harriman-the-mind fell into the hab- its of the corporations he runs. A corporation has no body and no soul. It just has a mind. It takes all and gives nothing. And when a man starts out to run himself on that basis, his mother, Nature, will stand it about so long, and then she calls a halt, And when she calis a halt, something stops.

He prefers to pay his own way through the world, so he buys all the clothes he wears and any gther necessary article.

She has caught four burglars in three weeks, No trick at all, declares Mra, Ja coba “You see,” she told the judge be fore whom her latest capture was arraigned, “burglars are all Just alike. Every one of them Is more afraid than the person whose house he Is robbing. I always remember this. When I see a burglar, I shout at him as loud as I can, and this startles him terrfhly.
