The interior OF the bath room is
a total wreck. The room is torn

the door connecting with the bar

Every window in both rooms was

things. he constders himself free from
the stigma OF seldshness
Reader Friend. If life has taught mo

selflshness Is but one little form Of
that vice. had almost said thu. fhasf.
Let me recall to your mind some Of
the other forms OF selnshness that TN
my opinion cause every bit as much
trouble and unhappiness as the thinx
selhshness, IL not more.
DID you ever have anything to do
with the II shall worry selflshness? II
you have you knox how much unhap-
pines 1t causes. OF course you under
stand that 1 mean the selflshness of
the person. who permits the habit of
worrying about those he loves to re-
strict their. freedom and interfere with
their happiness.
Then there is the selfishness of irri-
liability. Do you think mere thing
selhshness could cause any more un-
happiness In q family circle than the
self Indulgence Of the irritable man or
woman? -
Mental selfishness IL another variety.
There are many people who will talk
Interestingly and entertainingly when
abroad, but in the homo will be 9ium
and silent. They never bring home in
teresting bits of news. If they 70
away on a trip they never exert them
selves to bring back its flavor for the
esting book or attend q good play
they never discuss 1t at home. To my
mind such folks, though they give ali
their goods to feed the poor. are still
selfish.
OF all the varieties OF selffshness
there IL none that causes any more
unhappfness than that Of the person
who must have his own way all the
time. 1 know q woman whom be-
lieve the world calls generous. She
in her Christmas gifts; she is generous
with the greater gift Of service: and
yet I call her very selfish. for I know
that she IL Unfortunately greedy about
having her own way. and that in get
ting It she often rides roughshod over
the feelings and desires Of others.
When a person IL persistently disor-
derby don't you call that selfish?
Doesn't 1t mean that he wants free
dom from the bother of putting things
that to obtain that freedom he puts
an added burden upon others?
And what about the person who, by
making fuss whenever he doesn't
have Just what he wants in the way
Of food. manages to restrict the menu
OF the rest of the family to his own
pampered preferences? s
"Selhshness means regarding ones
own comfort. advantage. ETC.. in dis
regard, or at the expense. Of those Of
Others"
So says the dictionary man. It IL a
good, broad definition and few there
are Of US. generous though We may be
in the matter Of things. who do not
ut into 1t somewhere. -sSssfs
