THE coMPLAINER.

You are not altogether satisfied with
yourself, with others, with your en-.
vironment. with conditions. Nobody is
satisfied Neither you nor anybody
else will ever be completely satisfied.
Fun satisfaction leads to stagna1ion.
The satisfied man is a fool, intoxicated
with his own satisfaction. never sober
enough to do more than stagger along
the road of life.
The complete optimist is no better
than the contented pig in the well-kept
sty.
Regulated dissatisfaction, dissatis-
faction based upon fact. is a forerun-
ner of success.
There is. however. a wide gulf be-
tween legitimate dissatisfaction and
that which consumes the chronic com
palmer, the disreputable knocker. and
the everlasting kicker.
Life is made up of Alternatives and
negatives. One without the other is
incomplete. The two properly blended
are part of the composition of success.
The habitual complainer is an enemy
to himself, and he is despised by all
with whom he comes in contact. He is
failure at the start and will be
failure as long as he INDUCES in
chronic dissatisfaction
Conversely, the complete optimist is
dangerous to himself and menace to
society, because he does not know
enough to get out OF the ruts or to
keep from stumbling into holes.

When it deadens ones faculties. as it
often does, and takes the gimp out of

most virulent form.
Nobody likes the constant complain
er. He has no friends He does not
occupy any position of responsibility,
and he never will. He cannot manage
himself or command others He has
no respect for himself and nobody re-
spects him. He is no better than a
dead log floating on the stream, accom-

Writes That Savases Worshipso

Albert Lang, who is exploring the

Dellenbaugh. secretary of the Expior
ers' club, of the discovery OF a new
tribe of Indians, 1000 miles from civ
ilization, between the headwaters OF
the Cairary and Moju rivers. Mr.
Lang gives a picturesque description
of the savages. who, he says, TOOK
him for god, embracing his feet to
show their devotion. Their tools. he
writes, are of stone, and their
ideas so unusual as to suggest their
belonging to another age. The Jew
ish cast of their features might lead
one to infer that they were of the
lost tribes did not their ignorance OF
iron and writing argue against it.
