Evening Chat
The Chronic Listener.

Did you ever sit down for a moment
tOtalk TO a particular sympathetic
friend and after long heart to heart
conversation, feel much refreshed in
spirit and mind? A good listener is
rare indeed and one Of the greatest
comforts in life. Most OF us however
prefer talking ourselves and find lis.
teltng dull and embarrassing. Have
mt you often launched forth on your
own particular story, growing more
and more intensely intc-ested in your
tale each moment, feeling sure your
listener is digesting each important
sentence; only to be rudely surprised
by a remark suddenly thrust at you
which conytnces you beyond the shad-
ow Of a doubt that very little Of all
you have been saying was heard at
all. We all have habit OF being
much more interested in our own af-
fairs than in the doiugs of others.
How fine it is then to meet the man
who can forget himself entirely. Ne
is indeed rare but exhilerating to the
last extreme. One wants to put over
something big and is not quite sure
the other fellow will realize its magni-
tude. Tentatively, the subject is dis
cussed with that unselfish friend. He
rises to the occasion. BY jove, it's
bound to get by. Oh, the Joy of talk
ing to q good listener!
