SEWARD, ALASKA, OCT. 8, 1908
IT DOESN’T PAY
It is often said by people who have
had a good many ups and downs, that
life is not worth the living. Possibly
there is some truth in the statement.
It depends a great deal upon the liver.
Apparently many of those who have
thought that life is worth the living
have not been thoroughly imbued with
the maxim that what is worth doing at
all is worth doing well.
Is death worth the dying? A great
many people seem to think it is, and
are in such haste to test it that they
shuttle off by all the various routes
imaginable. There may be some
satisfaction to such in the thought that
they will make someone feel sorry for
their untimely taking off. Let them
not fool themselves. It doesn’t pay to
take any such chances of getting re
venge. Someone may be a little dis
commoded by the cofnusion caused by
one forcibly ejecting one's self out of
the sphere of physical existence, but
smiles will soon come back to the face,
and the work of the selfdestructionist
counts for naught on that line. It
doesn’t pay to try to get even with the
world or any of the world’s inhabitants
by retiring from the field of action and
giving them full swing. Better stay
in and try to be there to see the finish
of the other fellow. It is probable
that some temporary derangement of
mind is the immediate cause of most
suicides. If so then it behooves one to
avoid the things that tend to derange
the mind. Whether life is worth liv
ing or not, death is not worth the dy
ing, so far as we can see, until it be
comes a matter of necessity, and it
would seem the part of wisdom to hang
on to the life we have rather than
break in upon the festivities or sol
emnities of the ghosts of the departed
at an untimely hour.
