EXTRACT FROM CORRESPONDENCE.

My daughter has a very peculiar disposition. At any time when she can not do whatever she takes a notion to do, she will sulk around; and no matter what I may say or do, she is determined that nothing shall interest her but just the one thing that she can not have. What would you do in such a case?
Pay no attention to the sulking, but be very sure that the child gets nothing for it. Do not let her sulk you into gratifying any whim. Leave her alone by herself until she straightens up, and she will learn that it does not pay, and abandon it. No child is apt to work very long at even sulking unless it brings something that he wants.
