| The surgeons, hearing this. consulted
together again. They finally decided
that my plan was the best, and we all,
now agreed, were ushered before the
cardinal. My leg was wrapped In a
great number of bandages. and a great
display was made of various medical

1t was required that l be put into

The surgeons, naturally, wanted their
fees to go on as long as possible, but
even they admitted that there might be
a limit to the cardinals charity-and
patience. So at length they listened to
my pleas and announced that my leg
was entirely cured and that could be

We all have our pet interests. 1t may
be politics, collecting stamps. phyical
culture, music. moyies-anything.
Some interests are born in us, most
OF them are acquired through expert
ence and training. In so far as any one
has special gift for music, or drawing,
or speech making. he is more than
likely to take interest in these things.
We are all interested in the things we
can do we'll. 1t gives us chance to ex-
press our true selves and to earn the
praise of our fellow men. These are two
OF the strongest motives In life.
The degree of interest is determined
by the amount of ambition we have
toward attaining some particular OBJ
iective. If man Is bent on getting
rich he will be most interested In those
people and situations which he thinks
aid him in mis- ambition.
1t often happens that we undertake
a task because we know 1t has to be
done in order to get what we want, and
before we realize 1t we become interested
