SWELLED HEADS
'Y'OU will findr victims of swelled
heads on every bench in the park,
in every bread line, in every poprhouse,
In every jail.
It is tm easily communicable and a
deadly disease. The only cure for it
is a severe' jolt, and sometimes it is
the remedy that success is made of.
Remember that a little success is
often easily come by. Sometimes it
is due almost wholly to luck. Some
times it follows advancement through
favoritism, tvhich is probably the worst
thing that can happen to anybody.
In any event, no success can sur
vive a swelled head.
If in the early years of your career
you find yourself well ahead of the fel
lows who started with you, look out.
You have "still a long way to travel.
If you are satisfied with yourself,
be sure you will never get any better.
And if you don’t get any better you
will soon begin to go back.
Authority cannot safely be entrusted
to any man till he shows that his
head will not be affected by it.
Once let him begin to v make had use*
of it, to domineer, and to bully, and
he might as well bid any further prog
ress good-by.
Remember always that big men
never get the swelled head, or if they
do get a slight attack they soon re
cover.
If you have begun to think that you
are “doing pretty well thank you,” and
to pity the poor devils who are not as
bright as you are, stop and take stock.
Don't think about the meip you have
passed, but about the men who have
passed you. Consider the important
men of your acquaintance, and of his
tory.
Head their biographies, and note
how they continually struggled to
make themselves capable of bigger
and better work. There is no time to
get a swelled head when a man is
really going up. It Is the chap who
stops to admire himself who falls vic
tim to conceit.
If you are as great a man as Lin
coln, as Shakespeare, as Napoleon,
puff and strut all you please. But the
chances are you are not. And until
yoq are perfectly sure that you are,
keep on trying. The study of big men
will give you less time to admire your
self, and thereby save you from a
malady that is absolutely fatal to any
important success.

Try liking what you do.
