Finding a NeuU World

The world is so full OF a number Of
things" that many OF us neglect entirely
to discover ourselvesl OF course there
are plenty Of self-centered individuals in
the world who are selfishly concerned
with nothing but themselves. but even
they have probably really never made
the great discovery OF their own power
and potentiality.
Whenever an individual becomes ahso-
lutely sure OF the fact that he II really
an individual. that he is capable OF
standing on his own feet and walking
forward on them toward the things
which he wants TO wrest from life, then
the conclusion of Stevenson's quotation
IL true, and he ought TO be as happy as
king.
Lne Of the greatest tragedies OF ex-
istence Is that most OF us imagine that
/ life would be very happy II some one
else would make It 30. Happiness does
not depend on whether some one Is kind
to you. or whether some one loves you:
Il depends entirely on whether you are
strong enough TO stand or fan by your
own merits and whether you are de-
termined enough 20 put UP a fight that
shall enable you 70 stand rather than to
fall.
None but yourself shall meet on the
! highway OF fate" says a philosopher
poet In assuring yourself of that. in be-
lieving that. and in living up TO II you
have taken the first step toward hap
plness and success.
II is so easy 20 imagine that. given
n fair chance. you would succeed. "If
only" says Jim. II could get to the head
OF the company. II he would just inter-
est himself In my behalf and give mo a
decent chance I'd show what I'm made
OF I'd work IL / just got little recog-
milton and the announcement OF n fair
salary"
Jim, you will succeed only when you
discover yourselfl As soon as you know
not to think, not imagine. but know
that You are a man with tho ability 10
succeed lying In yourself and not In the
outside world and the chance II gives
you, YOU will succeed. Your success
does not depend on having the president
OF the company praise you or give you a
raise
II depends on your waking up some
morning 20 the consciousness that you
are a man strong enough to make your
fight and willing to exert yourself and
go on fighting until you have climbed
past obstacles to the place whore your
ability absolutely illumines everything
that lies about you. Then you won't
have to ask for recognition to enable
you to succeed. Your success will bring
you recognition.

many of US are made miserable by the

But most OF us who suffer these

BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Change is one of the characteristics Of
modern life. There is a gradual tendency
for changes to come more and more rap
idly, so that they fairly tread upon one
anotheTs heels, and a large amount
of our happiness depends on our ability
TO adapt ourselves to them. An indi-
vidual Of oast-iron habits, who is deter
mined not to change II 1t can possibly be
helped. Will find the times hard indeed.
The world Is fun OF people who deter
mine to act lust as usual" no matter
what happens. They may reconcile them
selves TO that, but the world regards
them either as bOresome nuisances or
selfish prigs. and shubs them accordingly.

There are certain thoughtlessnesses with

The modern habit OF dwelling in apart

because many people are adaptable. and
