SAR anit x The Man Who Laughs \ By Rev. Thomas B. Gregory: Copyright, 1319, by The Prem Publishing Go. (The New York Bening World). Laugh‘and Conquer All Your Enemies ° HE, man Who laughs is the mgp who wins—and who, in his power to laugh, hac the very best sort of fortune that comes to mortals here below. ‘Phere are older men than 1 am, but'I am old enough to remember ttie time when religion was the gloomiest thing in the world. On Sunday the Minister preached on death and the judgment, and after those goleful the people reflected all through the week. ple could not imperil their “Salvation” by permitting thegmpelves to dally with the pleasures that met them by the way. asad, ® long, hard fight, however, human nature began to assert i well established. . ’ f Slowly thg light of reason is falling upon the land, and peop! everywhere ing to ee that there cannot possibly be any sin in glad- ness, and that there is no law of God or man that prohibits our getting out of life all the joy that we can, It Is now quite legitimate to laugh, and one may “smile and smile” without the least danger of being dubbed a “villain.” It 18 well that such is the case, for the mightiest authorities assure us wae from the viewpoint of health laughter ts the greatest thing on earth. These authorities tell us that there is not the remotest corner or inlet of the blood-vessels of the human body that does not feel the wavelets that are set in motion by good, hearty laughter. They tell. us that the “central man,” or life-prineiple, is influenced to is innermost depths by this same laughter, and that new tides of life L at sth are set forth, thus insuring fuller health to the laugher. The,” us that the blood moves more rapidly and conveys a different fmp. ‘ion to all the organs of the body when a man is laughing from what it does at any other time. r Byvery hearty, rib-twisting laugh that a person has imparts fresh stimulus to the vital forces and thereby lengthens the life. A distinguished physician declared, “I doubt not that the time will come when Coctors will everywhere prescribe to the torpid and melancholy patient a certain number of hearty peals of laughter as the best and most effective means of helping him out of his troubles.” “Laugh and grow fat” is a bit of advice that has come down to us from the experience of all the ages, and we would do well to pay attention to it. 4 Laugh and grow strong in body and mind. £ Laugh and grow courageous and hopeful. Laugh and conquer all your enemies. , It. is impossible to down the man who laughs. Crush him @ dozen times a day, and after every fall he will come up smiling. It-is only when the power to laugh deserts us and the blue devils have got control of us that we begin to set out upon the sorrowful hike to the LAND OF FAILURE. .
