tired and seem to have aocompllsbed ao uttle that really oounla i suppose it is because the work we dont do urea us more than the workwp have done that is to say we start roaking up our mind to do certain things but perhaps during the day w cat a number of unexpected call upon our tune and night finds us with only half our promts ed work done and so if we are that way disposed we work ourselves up to a form of nervous prostration and feel far more tired than some days when we have done twice as much work oh ye i know because i have done everyilme x realise it to be a confession of weakness in my young and youthful days my family used to say i did not know what nerves were and i used to get most terribly impatient with nervy people now i have learnt to be mori tolerant but i etlu think the state of our nerves depends not ao much on elr ounutanoea as upon our ability to mee them or overoosne them it io t eas but it helps a lotld draw upon ou sense of humor really things r often not half so important as they seem and to prevent an attack of nerves we have only to take ourselves in hand and re adjust our sense of values sometimes when x and myself getting a bit xelld i sit myself down and gl myself a little straight talking to now look here i say you are getting all fussed up and what i it all about you have this to do and that to do and a good many other thing which an seem to want doing at once if you have two jobs equally important do that one first which takes the least time after that if there is any job which you don t like doing get after it and get it done this way you will soon find you feel far less harassed and the work will then go easy yes that is the way x sometime talk to myself and lt generally works but this week i have done no such thing because as

independence hall waa projected purely in a spirit of mischief by hla entertainers in rummaging in the garret the party discovered the old cracked bell which had been somewhat contemptuously hid den away and thl more than any other relio seemed to fascinate the prince whose words have been thus reported this old bell is the greatest relic this republic has today instead of being hit covered with
