In the middle years of the last cen- tury. in St. Malachy’s college. Belfast, a boy carved the letters “C. R.” in the wood. The French professor reported him and declared that he “was besides a worthless boy, who would never amount to anything." “I will amount to more than you!” returned the youth. That boy was Arthur Wellesley, known to fame as the Duke of We]- lington. hero of Waterloo. In a country schoolhouse in Queen’s county, Ireland, a boy with a blunt knife cut in the deskfi‘ux. W.." the in- itials of his name. The teacher, who caught him ,in the act, cried out: “Stupid, you are better at cutting let- ters and destroying desks than you are at learning your lessons!” “My heart is fairly broke with that brat, Tammy. and be is so stupid he can learn nothin’!” One day a slattornly woman rushed out of a little grocer’s shop gripping an unkempt boy by the ear. and as she pulled him along she shouted to her neighbor: That stupid brat Tammy became the poet Tom Moore. man and orator.

Thus worry kills. lnsidiously, like many other diseases. it creeps upon the brain in the form of a single, con- stant, never lost idea. and as a dropâ€" ping of water over a period of years will wear a groove in the stone, so does worry gradually, imperceptibly and no less surely destroy the brain cells that lead all the rest, which are, so to speak, the commanding otflcers of mental power, health and motion.
