M One half the world are desolately single, and the other
tapposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
i,mee el right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
.:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea

eemprosing harry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and jukticedenaand that health should form as item
In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
leglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone sr

ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by r ost Is. 6d.) called " What to Rat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pa,np }lets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the

'ife who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
