Our happiness in life and our success its
securing the love and frteudehip of our
fellowmen, depends to agent degree on
our temperament. Life is what we make
it ; we carry into life the influences
which make or mar it. Each mind makes
its own little world, finding it bright or
gloomy as be is bright or gloomy. Our
temperaments are reflected in the disposi-
bions of those about us. The desire for
the eooiety and friendship of our fellow
