Aphorisms by Dr. O. K. Pearsons.
Dr. D. K. Pearsons, the Chi
cago philanthropist, in the Times
Herald tells how a man may live
100 years in comparative com-
fort, and in this connection the
following list of aphorisms is
interesting:
Most men dig their graves with
their teeth.
No pies or cakes —no pains or
aches.
If you overwork your liver it
will tell on you to your brain
by and by.
Live like a farmer and you'll
live like a prince.
Men can live without eating
ten days; they can't do without
pure air five minutes.
Don't get angry and don't get
excited; every time you fret you
lose a minute of life.
Let a man abuse his stomach
and he'll get fidgety, crose to his
family and go to the devil.
Doctors say don't sleep on a
full stomach. I take my after-
dinner nap just the same and I
am 80 years old. You can't be-
lieve all the doctors say.
I cured a man once by telling
him he was a damphool because
he imagined he had a dozen ail-
ments.
If you catch a cold lose your
quinine and eat an onion.
Give away your money; its
exhilarating and tends to longev-
ity.
The idea of giving while one's
alive will beoome epidemic as
soon as men discover what fun it
is.
For Ovsr Fifty Years.
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Sirup has been
ased for over fifty years by millions of moth-
ers for their children while teething, with per-
fect success. It soothes the child, soften*
