“How to get*Repose tn Old Age.
—Lord Brougham says:—“l strongly rec
ommend you to follow tho analogy of the
body in seeking the refreshments of ffie
mind. Everybody knows that both man
and horo are very much relieved and rest
ed, if instead of lying down and tailing
asleep, or endeavoring to fall aslafep, be,
changes the muicles he puts iu operation;
if, instead of level ground, ha goes up and
it is a rest both to man walking,
and the horse which he rides —a different
ret of muscles is called into operation.—
So, I say, call into action a different class
of faculties, apply your minds to other ob
jects of w. olusojne food to yourself as well
as of good to others, and, depend upon it
this j/tbe true mo ie of getting repose in
old age. D<?sot overwork yourselves; do
everything i? v
