The art of being happy lies very much
in the power of extracting happiness from
very common things. If we pitch our
expectations high, if we are arrogant in
our pretensions. if we will not be happy
except when our self-love is gratiied
our pride stimulated, our vanity fed, or
fierce excitement kindled. then we
shall have but little satisfaction out Of

THE DOMESTIC GRowLER. Look at
him he is curiosity. He was pleasant
enough an hour ago, as he sat in his Office
talking to jerks With his chair tilted
back, the toes of his boots resting against
the mantlepiece, his mouth extended iu-
to loud guffaw ia reply to one Of Jenk' S
yarns, you would have said he was one
of the jolliest fellows in the world.
But he does not look so now He con-
siders it bad domestic policy to come
home looking smiling and cheerful; it
would not only lower his dignity as mas
ter of the house, but it would encourage
his wife and children into the asking Of
all sorts of fiyors, and the running into
goodness knows what extravagances. 81
The only way. he believes, to keep up a
proper system of household authority, and
reduce household expenditure to its GER
tain limits, is always to find fault, and
never relax for moment the system Of
domestic snubbing.
Of conse,. the coming home of the
growler is not looked for with joy. All
pleasant influences take wing, The very
atmosphere becomes charged with de-
pressing or explosive material. The
COOK spills the gravy, and blackens the
toast for the pigeons the wife is afraid
the soup will not be all right, or the pud-
ding done to the precise turn; the chill
dren huddle in corner and talk in whis-
pers, and no one feels that he can breathe
until pa is gone. Who would be q
growler7
