I may say of all belonging to me too. You see, Jack, here's what I thought. Things ain't now 4.3 thuy first was before sin auneinm the world. That put rottennws into everything, and made it its nature to decay. and get out cf re- pair; and suit will be as long‘as the wm-Id is as itisnow. Our bodies? ain't they always getting out of or- ; der, and wanting the doctor? our: houses! our clothes! our tempers!1 our business! everythinggoes wrong by nature, instead of right; and unless we're always getting them put to right, they'll soon go to the bad.’ . ‘ Ah! Joef'said Jack, "tis much better [so do as you have doneâ€"not to allow oneself to get out ofrepair, than to make such a mistake, and repair it ever so well at last. How did you keep right without. half the chances I have had ?’ . The tears cnihe into pour Jack's eyes, as the cobbler made him then and there get into the boats, and stand in _them with his feefin dif- t‘crent attitudes, to see how he look- ed;uud then shook him by the hands. and slapped him on the back, and wished him ‘Good speed.’ ~ too; there they are, and not a. penny will I take for them, until you and your wife and your children are all put into thorough repair, and, soito wpeakt made as good as new.’ 'Yuu Ezre,’ said Joe Flicker; and he laid a long, strong emphasis on the wow ‘areIâ€"‘Yuu are. Now sit down here, and tell us all about it." Then Jack seated himeelf on the only chair in the room, and told the bubbler how he Couldn’t get rid of ’ the idea of being out of repair after ‘ what he said; and then, how it was fixed in his mind' by the landlady‘s speech; and then, how horridit seem- ed to him that he should be keeping other people’s places in repair, at the j expense of himself and those belong~ 1 mg to him, while he and his were going to ruin, worse and worse every day; andâ€"hut the cobbler could hold out no longer; jumping hastily up, be rushed to the wall, and un- veiled the sparkling boots, and cried, ‘Jack Thatch, you’ll yet beworthyof those boots; aye and of much more - ‘ Yes,’ said Jack, ‘I’ve been re- pairing m yself‘ ; and I'm all the better forjjning a {ittlgdgne gp.’ At Iéngth he broke silence, and said, “Jack Thatch, you’ve been and gut yam-self reymircdf Joe Flicker looked up, and theh laid down his aw], and the shoe which he was mending; and finally rose from his bench, and deliberate- ly walked three times round Jack Thatch, without saying a single word which could account forS) ex- traordinary a’joumoy.

Come sit. down a min- une on that chair.’ Now, this the cobbler Knew very well; and as poorJ .1ch was evidentlv on the mending hand he did not want him to geta lecture from Mrs. F uglier at this particular time. The only thing therefore was to put him out of the way ; and this could be done only by stufling him into a little kind of cunboard, which at tl): at particular time was empty. but which n'encraliy held the cobbler‘s store of leather. In a trice, ac- cordingls, JacK found himself im- prisuned; and in another trice, Mrs. Flicker was in her husband‘s little l " Why the meaning of it is this; if you maKe it your business to take thought for your wife, she’ll know i she‘s (and for; and she‘ll vtlae it, and value you ; and she‘ll trvx to he a credit to you; and she won‘t give you cause for anxietyâ€"running ! into debt, neglezting your children and yourself, and perhaps drinxinc â€"-«.lriven to it, by neglect and iii words, and, it may be, even hard blows. That‘s not the kind of treat- ! ment that women require. said the 1 cnbhler; they‘re very brittle kind of , things.

But there comes Mrs. F licxcr, said the cobbler, with an extra smile on his jolly face; 'here she comes ; and right glad am I a1- wnys tosee her,althongh the chances are a hundred to one she wants something or other.’ ’ But this sentiment the cobbler had all to himself. Jacx Thatch was not at all anxious to see Mrs. FlicKer; for the latter was’a very outwoxen, and indeed, sometimes, vehement Woman ; and she had more than once given her cousin a bit of her mind about his conduct to his Wife and children. ‘I am not good at riddles,’ said Jack Thatch; ‘and whats that in plaigEnglish?’ ‘Tbnt’s bmspE-gou-dou't think enough about her” ~icl theucobbler. ,‘Tbere'a .a Kin] ' die here; Md indeed some folks iay that when- ever there’s 3 Woman, there's a rid- dle ; however, here it is, ‘The more you think about your wife; the less she’ll give you to think :I_h9ut._’ ‘ Mine givés flip]; v deal to think about: said Jack hatch. he was annking ah!“ ?
