Jasper County Democrat, Volume 5, Number 48, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 March 1903 — Laugh. [ARTICLE]

Laugh.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh la bettar than medicine. Learn how to tell a •tory. A well-told Btory Is as welcome as a sunbeam In a sick room. Leant to keep your own troubles to yourself. The world Is too busy to care for your Ills and sorrows. Learn to stop croaking. If you cannot see any good in the world, keep the bad to yourself. Learn to hide your pains and aches under a pleasant smile. No one cares to hear whether you have an earache, headache or rheumatism. Don’t cry. Tears do well enough In novels, but they are out of place In real life. Learn to meet your friends with a smile. The good-humored man or woman Is always welcome, but the dyspeptic or hypochondriac Is not wanted anywhere, and la a nuisance as well.
