Pessimist Then Man Must "Beware" With Christmas and the New Year festivities fresh in our memories, it might be well it we strive to carry some of this gower of joyous living |; with us throughout 1931, observes the medical correspondent of a Trade Journal (London, England). He asserts that joy possess the power of raising what the doctors call "the level of excitability" when a man's happy he sees clearly and thinks more surely than when he is sad: Pessimism, in Fouche's famous phrase, is not only a crime; it's a blunder. And it achieves .aothing. The coun- sels of despair are proverbially bad counsels Wisdom wears a smile. In these days every man needs all bis wits and a little more. He needs to live on a higher plane of interest and enthusiasm. He needs clearer eyes, sharper ears. He cannot have these advantages unless he puts gloom out of his heart. For the nervous system responds to emotional stimuli as readily as it responds to physical. The paralysis which fear produces is not confined to men and women; it is common to 'the whole of creation The springs of life are dried np. "Eves have they, 'but they do see not; they have ears, but they hear not." Joy is the only certain antidote to this poison. It can be made a habit eo that, like the discipline of an army, it will withstand every stress and every shock. There are men who can wear a smile in the face of ruin. A Cheerful Countenance.

Let me to-night look back across the span 'Twixt dawn and dark, and to my conscience say: "Because of some good act to beast on the bright side of things Is such that cpportunities are perceived | where other men see only darkness. | 'When this happens we hear of "mir-! acles" and "wizards". It is a fact that most of the "wiz- | ards" of commerce and industry are happy men. They are not happy be. cause they have succeeded; they have succeeded because they are Admittedly it is smiling. The hay the dispositi is not, as a rule, a gift of Frovilonce (though that is always said about it by un- happy folk). It comes by care and effort. When a man has convinced himself that it is a blunder as well as a sin to give way to pessimism he is on the high roal to happiness. He can 'help himself in various ways. The most important of these ot easy to keep disposition like - 48 the cultivation of the power of shutting the mind. Dismal people carry their troubles home with them.

For he will come back to it with strong nerves and quickened senses. He will see it whole. He will see it in its true proportions. The most dangerous moment In any man's life is the moment when he allows himself to take a black view of the future. The future, when he does this, is always black. It will Inevitably grow blacker. For pessimism is an act of treason to oneself. He who, In the storm, takes his hand from the tiller de- serves the fate which always over- takes him. If we must go down, let us go down smiling. It is a curious fact, however, that the proverbial ex- pression is not "go down smiling" but "come up smiling". Napoleon held that a hopeful at titude was almost, if not quite, equiv- alent to victory. The same view in- spired Foch"s strategy in the Great 'War. When all seemed to be lost he wrote his famous bulletin: "Tout va bien. J'attaque." This motto would serve for the world of business to-day. It would serve also for each individual in his battle with disease. Never say die. To every man there is left, so long as he lives, a measura of health, however small. Let us keep our eyes on that bright spot and refuse reso- lutely to be intimidated by all the surrounding darkness of disease. -- ed -- Useless "Weel, Angus, 1 hear ye've got mar- ried."

His complete ascendency over Mary appears to have dater definitely from the murder of the Queen's secretary, Rizzlo, in March, 1666. From then on he was her chief adviser, attend- ing with her the Craigmiller confer- ence at which both signed the "bonds" which were to result in the murder of the Queen's husband, Darnley. To Mary, Bothwell was a "glori- ous, rash and hazardous young man." He was masterful and daring and possessed of a certain courage that even his bitterest enemies were forced to recognize. The intention of Queen Mary to make the Earl of Bothwell her hus- band was, for a time, kept secret. She sought refuge with him at Dun- bar Castle. He met her riding out- side of Edinburgh and, leading a force of 800 spearsmen, escorted her --forcibly or otherwise--to Dunbar. Less than a month later Mary made Bothwell Duke of Orkney and Shet- land. " Within a month after their mar- riage, Mary Queen of Scots and Bothwell were again seeking refuge, to be separated from then on. Both well's flight to Denmark was the last of his adventurous life. He was no longer in position to ald his Queen, and her downfall left him the pris- oner of King Frederick II of Den- mark, from whom, during Mary's reign, he had obtained safety by promising to restore to Denmark the Orkneys anfl Shetland. Eleven years] after his marriage with Mary the Earl of Bothwell died at Zeeland.

A. Jaggar, American volcano expert, as a result of personal ex. periences during the earthquake of Septeniber 25, 1921, in Hawail. In a recent announcement from the Hawaiian Volcano Research As- sociation, Dr. Jaggar describes how he happened that day to be driving In his automobile to visit a friend. Then, says Dr. E. E. Free's Week's | Science (New York): "On arriving at the friend's house, Dr, Jaggar was astonished to find the inhabitants in great excitement, and the house partly ruined. "A violent earthquake had hap- pened while Dr. Jaggar was in his moving automobile. "In spite of long experience as an earthquake observer, he had felt no- thing. During the shocks which fol- lowed, Dr. Jaggar reports, many peo- ple left their houses and slept In their automobiles. "Even when not in motion, Dr. Jaggar reports, 'a sedan on springs and rubber tires produced almost.no sensation to the occupants, while ad- jacent homes were rattling and rock- ing with the aftershocks.' "Houses usually act, he finds, as magnifiers of earth movements, so that what seems to be a violent earth- quake to a person indoors may seem to a person on the ground In the open to be a single not very strong thud under his feet, or may pass alto- gether unnoticed. "This may explain why it is that primitive men have few myths of earthquakes, but many of floods and fires. Having no houses to magnl fy them, primitive men probably felt only the very greatest garthquakes, but anybody is {fmpressed by a forest fire or a flood." | wm es Tests Show Lack of Vitamin Cause of Grey Hair Premature gray hair may be due to lack of some vitamin-like material in the food, just as lack of one of the vitamins causes the disease called rickets. This is suggegted by re- searches reported to the Academy of Solences in Paris by Prof. Gabriel Bertrand. Says Dr. B, E. Free in his Week's Science (New York): "In experiments planned for a dif- ferent purpose, ordinary black and dark gray rats were fed on diets con- taining all vitamins known to be necessary, but made of purified or synthetic foods instead of natural materials like vegetahles and grain. "To the investigators' surprise, the black coats of the animals began to turn silver gray. "This may happen, the experiment ers knew, because of bad health, but the rats in this instance were per- fectly henlthy, as was confirmed by 'blood tests. sree appr The new vicar was calling upon one of his parishioners.
