WHICH SELF DOMINATES. #.

When we try to be consistent and
show the same self to every indi-
viduaI We are actually acting against
nature. We have as many selves
as there are types of persons to
bring out certain qualities. William
James in his Psychology" says:
The most peculiar social self
which one is apt to have is in the
mind of the person one is in love
with. The good or bad fortunes of
this self cause the most intense Ella
tiOn and detection - unreasonable
enough as measured by every other
standard than that of the organic
feeling Of the indidUal. To his own
consciousness h is not. so long as
this. particular social self fails to
get recognition, and when il is re-
CoEnized his COHtuntment passes all
bounds"
~ mans fame-goOd or bad. and
his honor or diSnCnor, are names
for one 0f his social selves. 1t is
his image in the eyes of his own
set which eNhalts or condemns
him as h- conforms or not to certain
requirements that may not be made
IL another walk in life. Thus a
layman may abandon a city infected
with cholera. but priest or a doc
tor would think such an act incOm-
patible with his horror. A Judge or
statesman are in like manner de-
barred from entering upon pecuni-
airy relations p..rfs city honorable to
persons in private life"
In its widest possible sense. how

OF all that he can call his. Not only
his body and his psychic power, but
his clothes, his wife, children. an
CeStOrs. and friends his reputation
and works. his lands. horses, yacht.
and bank account All these things
give him the same emotions in
greater or less degree. If they wax
and prosper. he feels triumphant; if
they dwindIc and lie away, he feels

A MUTUAL DISCOVERY.

Alison reached home before Larry
had arrived.
The apartment was dark and
chilly. the steam having long ago
ceased to percolate through the
radiators, after the usual post-mid-
night fashion Of such heating. As
Alison switched on the rose-colored
light, shivering a little in spite Of
her mothers fur wrap, the details
Of the untidy room sprang into view.
The couch cushions were disar-
ranged: a film Of dust lay over the
reading table; the lamp shade was
slightly eskew, and Larry's ash tray
had not been emptied, its half
smoked contents giving out an acrid
disagreeablc odor.
Alison made a moue of disgust.
She felt curiOusly disinclIned for
sleep after the ride through the
crisp autumn night. Also she was
perpIexsd by her mingled emotions
regarding Warren Bradley. She
wanted TO think. quite alone, before
Larry returned.
She touched a match to the fire
laid on the hearth and swept into II
the contents of the ash tray. A
Strengthening touch to the pillows
on the couch. the quick sweep of a
Crushed newspaper across the sur
face of the table. and the place
looked more habitable already.
Divesting herself Of her wrap be-
fore the comfortable cracking
flames. she flung herself on the
Chaise lounge and. tUcking a cushion
behind her head. gave herself up to
reflection.
The silence was short-lived, how

and Nurse Jane called to him:
Come on down. Uncle Wiggily,
camew
Hippity hop. on his red. white
and blue striped rheumatism crutch
the bunny gentleman, who had
reached home a bit early. came
down cellar. With Nurse Jane he
looked at the golden heap of sharp
pointed, yellow carrots.
! "Ah, they'll be just fine made
into puddings, pies and strawberry
shortcakes this winter" said the
bunny. smacking his lips and max
ing his pink nose twinkle twice as
fast as lollypop. And you'll bake.
DOLL stew and roast them, will you
/ not, Nurse Jane?"
Yes, and make carrot SOUP" said
the muskrat lady. you shall have
all the carrots you want. Uncle
! Wiggily. And-but bark! what's
that?" suddenly asked the muskrat
| lady.
whats WHAT" Uncle wiggily
wanted to know.
Something just went past the
| cellar window" said Miss Fuzzy
/ Wuzzy. Can it be the monkey
SSodle man bringing more carrots?"
| No. these are all / ordered" said
the bunny. But wait. I'll take
hook. Keep quiet, Nurse Jane"
The muskrat lady kept very quiet
and Uncle Wiggily went softly to
the foot of the cellar stairs and
looked up. Then he came back to
Nurse Jane on his tiptoes.
what is it?" whispered the
muskrat lady.
"A great. big black bear" whis-
pered Uncle Wiggily. He's up at
the head Of the cellar stairs, in the
kitchen, and / guess he's waiting
for me. Oh, what shall we do?
How can we get out of this CELLAR
We can't" said Nurse Jane. Il
nailed the outside door shut after
the monkey doodle put in the car
rots. Oh, how can we make the
bear go away"
Uncle Wiggily thought for a mo-
ment. scratched his ear and twin
killed. his pink nose. Then he whis-
percd
Il know a way. I'll make believe
I'm Mr.. Hedgehog Porcupine. all
covered with sharp. stickery quilts
Bears are afraid of hedgehogs. for
fear they'll get themselves stuck
fun Of quills. I'll be d make be

away. He's a bad bear. and not

or Mr.. Whitewash.'
How can you be a porcupine -
asked Nurse Jane. Your fur is 50
soft"
Listen" said the bunny. These
carrots have sharp points. like the
quills Of a porcupine. Tie Il lot Of
these carrots all around me. 50 they
stick out all over. Then I'll go up
the stairs. the bear will think I'm u
porcupine and he'll run away"
So Nurse lane tied a lot Of the
sharp pointed carrots on Uncle
WiCgily. making them stick out
like the quilts on a fretful porCu-
pine. Up the stairs walked Uncle
WiECily. hiding his long ears back
Of his head.
"Ah ha!' Crowled the bear. as he
heard the bunny coming up stairs
Now for a tender rabbit" But

ran away. So the bunny was saved
and 50 was Nurse Jane and how
she and Mr.. Longears laughed as
they united the carrots from the
abbit. They had fooled the bear.
