eat ship completely around by pulling steadily and patiently. The
movement would be slow, but it would be sure and you would finally
accomplish your purpose.

Don't jerk and fret and be impatient with yourself. You have been for
years perhaps worrying and thinking fear-thoughts. You have put a lot of

and finally you will turn your whole life's character toward the port of
success.

The habitual medicine user is not cured by the medicine but by nature;
the medicine simply serves as a means to establish mental control and
confidence that the sufferer is to get well.

who had been operated on. I know several of the staff of doctors and
nurses.

I have seen many operations, some very heroic ones, and my appreciation
