Ii's a bud habit, a useless habit, a pernicious habit, and, in a perioil like the present, positively sin- ful. If times are hard, croaking won't belter them. If business is dull, work the harder,* and smile the more. Your neighbors will thank you for it. Your wife and children will thank you for it. It iis impossible to ruin a man who works hard, n always clietrfiil, and v:on*l heliece himself ntiued. If a man imagines every straw tliat lies iu his way an impassable barrier, or, when bis path becomes* really difficult, sits down on the neares: curbstone, and goes to blubbering over his "bad luck," instead of exerting himself brayely and cheerfully to surmount the obstacle and change the "luck, " he cannot of course expect to succeed. Such a man not only fails liims6lf, but discourages his neighbor fi, and helps tp pull them down. Croaking is as contagious as the measles, hik to matily viguiir and health. No man has apy more rijjht to intr-duce the one iniilndy than the other. Society instinctively shuns a sour face, and always feels kindly towards a pleasant one, and society is right.
