know who they are.
1T is quite natural for those who are
absorbed in their own troubles to forget
that the other fellow has troubles; but
if they.will stop to think about the
matter II little they should have very
little difficulty in figuring out that the
other fellow has trouble of no less I'M
portance than tl:eir own.
There are some of us maybe who arc
in moro trouble than others are in, put
if we will get down 10 brass tacks ana
be right honest with ourselves We Will
all be forced TO admit that each IS re-
sponsiblc for his own troubles. There
is no use trying to put any blame on
the other fellow.
And the only effective way to get out
of trouble is to meet it in the manly
way.
Every man who is man, Will come
up to the scratch and meet his trou-
blcs as. Il man.
