The season for good resolutions is

thousands of men and women will
have resolved to begin the new year
with a definite purpose of lopping of
some bad habit or commencing some
effort at self improvement,
Human happivess so largely de-
pends upon health that many of these
resolutions will center upon conditions
relating to personal welfare, It is pot

to spalyze our habits and discover
wnere our weaknpesses lie, Neither is
it beyond the msjority of us to plan a
sensible course which if adhered to
would bring about improvement.
