No one i not this self-appraisement, and he disclaims it, he is either oily ignorant of his own mental iditions or intentionally misrepinting himself. dow does he set the valuation >n his worth and ability? It is low, continuous, and may l?e an conscious process, oecassioned by tact and association with other n. Valuation is a matter of uparison anyhow; and a man in eting other men, acquiring a iwledge of their characteristics, h great and small, strong and vk, by consciously or uncon >usly comparing his own traits h those of his associates, arrives some estimate of himself, nee the character of the aaeoci3 and associations is an importfactor, if not the whole hasis, the matter of self-estimation. I'he truth of this may he readily n. The village seer is lord ong his fellow villagers; he feels superiority and acts accordingPlacc this same man in a at city and his position changes; isequently his estimate of him. This, by no means, applies any such thing as self-debasent for every man has an innate se of greatness from the mere t he is a man. That sense or ing, ever under varying circumnces, ever remains the same, other example: the school stee, who is the only man in the trict capable of calling out the rds at a spelling match, has a different estimate of himself >11. than \vhr?n ho ?fona J ....... WW ?vvv?|^v? 111 V\/ VIIV cle of the literati. Self-estimate n is hased upon comparison, rho difficulty lies in being able appeciate the value of others. A .11, with clear mental discernnt, studies the lives of other n, bringing himself into possesi of facts as they are, eliminating sonal equations and other bias, ms his judgments and in so <lol sets a value upon himself also, just so great a degree as a man lacking in knowledge and appretion of men and life, to such a ;ree will he err in his self-esti,te. An educated man, then, is i liable to error than the unedued. And yet he is more often used of conceit than his less tunate brother. But, the aciers arc generally among the orant who are, by the mere t of being ignorant, disqualified pass judgment. Ignorance and :y are the motives back of such :usations. Futliermore, it is al>st a conceded fact that conceit ives liest when n>oted in igno ice. Conceit and pride, in its t meaning are of the same ,ure hut differing in degree, de, when taken to mean selfpeet, is very neeessary in life, man should he proud, in that he dains things unworthy or beith him; hut he should not he iceited or place an over-estimate 5n himself. )ne can learn himself as well as icrs, and it l>ehoovos him to do A correct estimate upon self is mean basis for building life, err either way is bad, hut to be t right is good. lA*t no man pise himself, neither think too lily of himself. For the man o despises himself is in a sad idition, and the concited man is lseating to circle or community. New Portrait of Lee. ?? dr. George B.
