of a Undent nnd brnln worker. Tho serenity

Is apt to exclto warm feeling. Yet In lit
personal habits ho was nustcro and gmvo,
holding himself sternly aloof from tlio prof
ligato rabblo around him, and Inflexibly
steadfast amidst domestic Infelicity, obloquy
and misfortune. Ho could scarcely bo called

OTIIEU NOTAUIJC INRTANCKH.
Contrast with hlsthobrlcfcaiwrofaiiothcr
famous English poet, l)rd Hyron. Tom as
ho was by ovory (wirton, nnd tho victim of
that most wearing emotion, chronic hate, a
spirit that furnished tlio urcun In quick suc
cession for tho most Intense and cxtromo re
vulsions of feeling allowed lu possessor nn
earthly existence of but thlrty-slx short
years. Our own cnlni Emerson, than whom,
probably, no man that over lived was less
tho prey of gusts of feeling, reached tho ago
of 70. Edgar I'oo, who was n sort of emo
tional shuttlecock, was miscrablo nil his llfo,
and died at -JO. EOmund Kean, not only in
his professional capacity, was nn actor and
an actor Is frequently obliged to feign tho
most vehement passions, which is commonly
supposed to bo tho next worst thing to
actually feeling them but In his private llfo
was n man of most erratic nnd llery temper
ament. Koan himself was a stago for tho
drama of tho passions, nnd tho consequence
was ho was frequently ill, and survived but
a fow years beyond 40.
Passion has been not Inaptly defined as any
emotion of tho soul which affects tho body
and Is affected by it. Such Is the sympathy
existing between tho mind nnd tbo liody, tho
moral feelings excrciso a (totcnt influence ou
tho physical organs, whllo tho latter In turn
affect tho former. Tho effect of mental
emotions is manifested in tho vital functions,
and certain states of these functions servo In
a Uko manner to awaken the different pas-
cions. Tho passions founded on pleasure
teem to act ns a universal stimulant to all
vital action. Circulation Is quickened, tho
blood distends tho vessels of Its system, tho
face urighUns, tbo skin assumes a ruddy
tint, the muscles grow stronger and Invito
activity Tho whole body Is rcaiifmatcd--ln
short, ovcry function responds to tho vitalis
ing Influence of tho happy moral condition.
As Holler says. "Love, hopo and Joy promote
perspiration, quicken tho pulse, promote cir
culation, Incrcaso tho appetito and facilitate
tho euro of diseases." Whllo Joy and kindred
emotions thus contribute to hoalth by Induc
ing a mora actlvo performance of nil the
vital functions, as with all other stimulants,
tho pleasurublo feelings becomo painful If
tho bounds of moderation aro oxcoedod.
Ou tho nervous system tho effect of the
painful emotions Is manifested by depression,
derangotnont and, possibly, destruction of
tho vital energies. Tbo same agencies Influ
ence tho various secretions by increasing,
diminishing or vitiating them. When tbo
mind is severely and unpleasantly agitated,
dryness of tho mouth testifies to tbo suppres
sion of tho sail vury secretion. This Is proved
"by tho well known Uist, often resorted to in
India for tho discovery of a thief among tho
servant of a family, that of compelling all
tho parties to hold a certain quantity of rice
hi tho mouth during a few minutes, tho of
fonder being generally distinguished by tba
corapaiutlvo dryness of his mouthful."
rnvsiotxxiicAL kvitkcts.
Undoi the influence of disturbing passions
certain secretions becomo corrupted and
von acquire poisonous properties. It Is a
known fnct that the blto of an animal coaded
to desperation heals low rapidly, and U at
tended with greater Inflammation than ouo
administered when tho systoni Is uninfluenced
by tho excited passion. Urrnt mental dis
turbance In tho mother diminished or vitiates
tbo secretion of her milk, and It become
hurtful to tho nursing child. Tho contrast
between tho physiological effect of tho
pleosurablo and alnful emotions, and tholr
tnfluenco upon health, are obvious to nil. In
tho faces of the happy and confident Is seen
tho bright glow of natural vigor, whllo the
drawn, careworn and pallid features of the
sad and despondent testify to inward suffer
ing. In habitual Irritability or fretfulnew of
temper, hatred, revongo, envy and Jealously,
and, In fact, in all dispositions of tho mind
characterized by bitter feelings toward
others, a measure of anger is almost necessa
rily blended The effect upon tho bodily
health of tho mind harassed by passions of
this naturo Is to propagnto derangements nnd
Infirmities. Tho npetito le&seus, digestion
Is Impalreu, nnd then follow other functional
disorders. Tho nervous system suffers from
continued metal Irritability, and hysteria,
beadAcho, and other painful affections often
owo their origin to this prejudicial influence,
Physicians well know that w ben tho system

Supposo I lmvo nn cstnbllshod laundry,
and want to borrow $'400 at a certain per
centum premium, but I cannot find nny
ono Chlnumnu who Is nblo to loan mo tho
amount. I put up a notlco In Mott
street that upon such and such a day I
wish to mako a "whoy" of twenty jnen,
who all aro supposed to bo situated llko
myself, each wanting to borrow $200.
Whon wo twenty borrowors all como to
gothor wo each put down $10. Thou each
ono secretly writes upon a slip of papor
tho amount of interest ho is willing to
glvo to got tho $200. Theso slips aro
cnroiuiiy Bcnicu nna ttirown into a uowi.
At a given tlmo thoy nro opened, and to
tho highest bidder goes tho $200, less tho
Interest, which Is Invariably deducted
Immediately from tho principal.
FrcQuoiitly as high as SI Is offorod for
tho uso of $10 for a bipglo month. In
such casos each of tho nineteen other bor
rowers gives to tho lucky ono only $0
nplcco for tho $10 nplcco which thoy

next hlghest bidder gots tho $200, less
tho Interest ho offered, and bo ou, until

but tho ono that comes tho last, having

reaps tho harvest of tho "whoy." ThlC

this city, to provent a lauudryman from
