Johnson the elder does not hesitate

This protective lnstintc i-> ulso pres

propelly . •rooted is u great source
of juospciity both to the Individual
ana io the . a ion. In oruer for man
to store up and lay by. to gain ad

ii .ago, it is necessary that he take
some forethought of the morrow, but
.os' so soon as he carries this beyond
tie ncrmal point the mental process
‘acomes an ex-agg' rated uud abnor
mal one. The normal protective in
stil ct is stmulated by a normal fear
i f •.’.n-se events which are reasonably
su.e to happen in the future unless
means are adopted against them. The
moment that this fear becomes ab
ncima! or exaggerated It ovcr-stmi
ulati s this protective instinct and to
no good purpose, because it results
In worry. This worry continues long
after the necessity for the normal
stimulus of fear has passed with the
r.-uu that there is an impairment in
mental power and a dissipation of the
ntivous forces. In other words, the
mental engine has been running idle
a"<1 at the same time delivering no
propulsive power. In fact, worry is
an abnormal state.
Not all worry is preventable but
for the most part it can be avoided.
Most of our fear3 are never rea'ued
and as a rule, If we meet our troubles

o>- fretting over them ufter they have
p- ssed, we w ill lind that we huvo the
st.-engih to rise above them. Worry
undermines the health to a ertuin ex
tent. It really weakens the mental
foices by tiring them out by doitig
ui.tiling. Usually the relief flour wor
ry resu with the victim of thU At
happy habit himself, but sometimes
the real causes ure not the ones which
si cm .or i-ypluin the condition and we
must go ueep into our live3 or have
,l i assistance of those who ure skilleu
in umavclhng mental processes.
The best antidote for worry is a
change of mental occupation, a get
ting away from the scenes which pro
voke worry, exercise in the open air,
a good book, a pleasant recreation,
or a temporary change of occupation.
a matter of in ntul health every
sufferer from this unfortunate condi
