Rest In Motion

"If I am harnea or wearled by care or ïvork," said a man who works with nis brains, "I can always find rest in motion. I just stop work and get out and walk. As I walk the weifjht is liftod, and finally it is gone altogether, and in place of that tired f eeling comes tranquillity succeeded by elation. It was a pleaslng discovery to make, that I could walk out of depression into buoyancy At iirst, whcn the exercise was new to me, I needed to go but a little dietance toaccomplish this happy result; and ko clearly defined was the change that I could lócate almost exactly the spot whcre my burdens disappeared and I found myself in the pleasant company of my hopeful, kindly triend, Cheerfulness. I still seek Cheerfulness by that road and I find him unfailingly, but I have to go further and further to moet him, for, like any other stimulant, the walk must be taken in constantly increasing j doses in order to produce the same results. At íirst a brisk walk of a quarter of a mile brought me to the boundary line; now I find it about a mile and a quarter away. It may be that I will have to seek Cheerfulness nearer home as a permanent atmosphere, for it is obvious that if I must go greater and greater distanoes to meet the personified Cheerfulness he might one day be practically beyond reach."
