Health in Business.

A business man walked into a doe tor’s office the other day. He looked in the pink of condition “I want a thorough physical examination,” he said. The doctor accommodated him. Heart was sound, lungs were healthy, kidneys and all other organs functioning properly.’ “You’re the most splendid specimen Fve seen in a long time,” said the doctor. “Thanks; I Intend to remain so," said the client. “You shall go over me like this every six months. And I propose to have every man in a responsible position in my organization undergo a similar examination twice a year. “A competing firm recently put a man into an important job who looked as well as I. He broke down, and in the demoralization of the firm’s business that came with the breaking, our firm has taken, over one of their biggest and best accounts. A condition of twenty years’ standing, which he thought completely overcome, caused that man’s breakdown. __ __ “I don’t propose that my firm shall suffer through any such experience." Good, hard business applied t® health. Doesn’t good sense recommend to every man such prudence? How many men can you recall who have discovered a serious state of health too late to mend?—Haverhill Gazette.
