How often do we hear remarks SINH

Perhaps we have made them ourselves

though apparently purposed snubs.
Some one isn't sufficiently cordial; an
other makes too personal remarks

Did you ever stop to consider just

why others whom you once thought

exceptions. One person who is to out

with consciousness of herself that
scarcely permits of her showing any

~ herself with thinking that she IL

another may be hopelessly lacking In
courtesy; and then there are the pur-
posely malicious, and the snobs.
But, to 60 back to the little episode
with Marian Smith at the dance the
other night, what did you do: or, to
go deeper into the subject, what were
you thinking when you met her
Doubtless you stood OF SO far that
poor Marian couldn't have touched
you with tsn-foot pole-mentally
speaking, Of course. Perhaps you were
making q mental appraisement Of her
dress, her partner. the arrangement
Oh her hair, how she looked In gen.

Then there are the omnlpresent

overly sensitive who are most suscep-
