able my children to attend high

Cure for Egomania2

New light is thrown on the posi-
bilities of amnesia by the experience
recorded by recent sufferer from it.
1t seems professional man, discour-
aged by lack OF money and worn out
by working to increase his income. fell
into a lapse Of memory lasting some
three months. When he recovered he
found himself possessed of new
clothes, a Liberty loan bond or two
and several hundred dollars; in short
he returned to his former sound mental
condition much better off than before
his amnesia experience. There is food
for thought here. Perhaps amnesia
by bringing a stay to too much self
consideration too much brooding over
personal rights and wrongs, too great
egomania. might do lot for certain
people who make major share OF
their own troubles. Here is man
who, by forgetting all about himself
for time, has solved his difficulties.
