You must step out of the busy stream of life for awhile, let it rush past you and take things easy. Flush the colon regularly remove that great source of nervous irritation, for we have yet to hear of a nervous person that was not constipated. If you suffer from nervousness, you are dyspeptic, your whole course of life tends to render you so.
Many who have 'plied their book diligently, and know all about some one branch or another of accepted lore, come out of the study with an ancient and owl-like demeanour, and prove dry, stockish, and dyspeptic in all the better and brighter parts of life. Many make a large fortune who remain underbred and pathetically stupid to the last.
Like others of my calling, I had seen the best and the worst and the most of women. The pathological view of that complex subject is the most unfortunate which a man can well have.

And the bile rises in one till Carlyle on his worst day might have hailed one as a brother bilious, and so denunciatory Jeremiah nervously dyspeptic! And when you opened your envelop and drew out a couple of clergymen, really, really! But perhaps I was in a hurry! Clergymen in a serious fix, too, because of unexpected and not understood success! And I talk of repelling the amateur!"

It was not quite so private as it might have been, for Mrs.
He ran out as excitedly as he had entered, and the men stopped work by common consent, and struggled into their coats. 'It's bad enough, said one of them, 'to work for two-thirds money even when you get it. Nobody else said anything. The dyspeptic foreman drew a case out of a rack near the wall, and sat down upon it. The rest hung about dispiritedly, and waited for what might transpire.

It suggests charity children gorging themselves with plum- pudding, rather than poetic natures drunken with beauty; and fragrance, swooning 'neath the sweetness of a duet sung by their own chaste souls.
