Pride is generally considered as a
rather contemplate thing. It is, un-
less 1t has the right foundation. To
be proud of the circumstances into
which chance has thrust you, to be
proud of the beauty with which a
,clean-living line of ancestors has dow
cred you, or to be proud of the wealth
with which a hard-ffsted grandfather
has invested you-any of these is in
deed a contemplate form of pride.
But this pride should scarcely call
worthy of the name-it is rather con-
temptibly stupid snobbery, and,
heaven help us, most of us are all too
likely to be snobs of just this unin-
telligent sort.
That We are snobs of this sort some
of us calmly know, and some of us
stupidly don't. Some of us find amuse-
ment in our own instinct of eXclu-
siveness, and others take it so SOL
emnly that we are hopelessly impeded
by it. With a temperate exclusive
ness tempered by sense of humor
and based on knowledge of human
frailty I have no fault to find
It actually has an instructive value
to the excluded and compels them to
cultivate powers and manners that
will take them inside the paling of
worthwhile society. Exclusiveness
implies the survival of the fittest. 1t
is necessary to human society. With
the sort of pride that makes one dainty
and exclusive and insistent on good
manners, one can find no more fault
than with that which makes one in

with a knife or on keeping ones
hands clean and smooth.
Being proud of yourself means first
of all not being ashamed of yourself.
To fail In having your soul and mind
and body as clean and we'll ordered
as circumstances will permit would be
matter of which one should be hor-
ribly ashamed. But in order to be
proud of yourself you must bend cir

stronger than they seem to permit.

Great Demand for New
Constipation Remedy

They say that the advent of the "senta-
mel tablet" as vegetable substitute for
calomel has resulted in an extraordinary
demand for this remarkable product. It
seems to have made a hit particularly
with those afflicted with chronic consti-
patton, who were quick to recognize It's
advantages over calomel and the usual
laxatives.
Sentanel tablets, aside from their eff
cacy, doubtless owe their success largely
to a tendency to aid in bringing about
natural functioning-instead of encour-
aging the "cathartic habit" Also, instead
of injuring the membraneous lining OF
the organs involved, they exert a healing
influence. Instead OF weakening. they
add tone to the intestinal wall. And they
work so easily and gently, they are OF
course preferred on this account to the
violently acting purgatives. Their mex
pensiveness is another reason for the
popularity of sentanel tablets. One need
procure only a dimes worth, and take
one tablet upon retiring, to be convinced
that the ideal remedy for constipation.

to make a bit more of yourself that

very calmly to proceed to reach ana

Thin men and women who would

fat should try eating a little Sargol
with their meals for a while and note
results. Here is a good test worth
trying. First weigh yourself and

yourself again. 1t isn't a question of
how you look or feel or what your

fact that nothing is lost. I ne distii-

portions of the grain, leaving an aver

is the element required to fatten

people that the best way to fatten a
hog is to feed hard corn. But corn
in the natural state yields about 10
per cent of protein, as much OF IL
passes through the animal undigested.
Distillers' dried grains therefore pos
