ever dreading death.
Most of us lirliitt eurselven nearer
te the grave by our own aiuiely te
keep away from it.
In an emergency, which always rails
for cool-headed, quick thinking, we get
se excited and se feverishly wrought up
with that drendful fear that we mnke
ourselves utterly powerless te de any
thing that may save us.
We strive se hard te escape that we
catch eurselvps up in the snarl of our
efforts.
WK'UK a strange let, anyhow, we
humnns.
We are always putting ourselves lust
where we don't want te be by our des
perate attempts te get as far away front,

If we could only be indifferent te

there be in that?
