Laughter Aids Digestion

LAUGHTER AIDS DIGESTION. I have visited in homes where the members of the family would come to breakfast with long faces, stretching, gaping, discontented, surly and cross. Everybody seemed tired or disgusted or had some tale of woe or trouble to tell. When conversation took the place of the gloomy silence, it was depressing. Nobody made an effort to say anything pleasant; no one tried to be cheerful or to look agreeable. If the meal hour were more generally looked forward to as a joyful occasion,—as the best kind of mental recreation,—as a chance for the brightest conversation, for humor, and for mental exercise and refreshening, there would be much more happiness and much less crime and misery in the world. There is no medicine for the stomach and liver like laughter at meals.—Success.
