And, then, unless you are careful, you sink into a low, nervous state, and see nothing bright in life. But don't allow yourself to come to this. Bear your' burdens cheerfully, and do all that you can to make lire bright and good for your husband and his little ones. God mill not ask of you more than you are able to bear. When your children come to you with their childish grids, don't turn them away with a cross word because you are tired; remember, that which seems at little matter to you, means a great deal to them, and that "matntna"etbn “love away" ‘a great deal of pain hom a little heart.

And why not, if they marry wisely ? The man should always be a little bigger than his wile, and a little older, is little braver, a little strong". a little wiser, and a little more in love with her than she is with him. The woman should always be a little younger, and a little prettier, and a little more inconsiderate than her husband. He should bestow upon her all his worldly goods, and she should take good care of them. He may owe her every care and tenderness that infection can prompt; but pecuniary indebtedness to her will become a burden. Better live on a crust he earns than a fortune she has brought him. Neither must encourage sentimental friend- _ ships for the opposite sex. Perfect con- tianoe in each other, and rotieence con- cerning their mutual strain, even to mem- bers of their own families, is a ilrst neces- sity. A wife should dress herself becom- ingly whenever she expects to meet her husband's eye. The man should not grow slovenly, oven at home.

If she likes him best in black cloth, he is It fool if he neglects to indulge in it. They should contrive to please each other, even if they please nobody else. for their mutual happiness can only be the result of their mutual love, and that love will never fail to exalt its object.
