THE SULKER

By GEORGE M. ADAMS.

If there is one man that every other man feels like heaving a brick at it is

the man who Sulks —doggedly, foolishly, and blatantly Sulks. For the Sulker not only refuses to do anything himself but he throws a wet blanket over the good intentions and desires of everybody about him. Few of us there are who do not

Sulk at times. But of all the nonsensical nonsense Sulking takes first place. If every SuTkercduld’but sit By long enough for those interested in him to dig a hole in which to put him. he would come out of his trance mighty quickly, for if there is anything that a Sulker hates it is nonsympathy and utter abandonment. Here is a little suggestion for the ridding of this world of its Sulkers: First, never Sulk yourself—be too busy. Second, whenever you see a Sulker, forget him and leave him —the Sulker is never happy alone.
