A It R T A G E.
M One half the world are desolately single, and the other
Supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense et right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of
.cautlen and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an-
comproshieharry ; but the trath lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, lye the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour end Justice deraaad that health should form Ala item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Slighted hopes er
Neglect wound more sorely thee poverty er misfortune. Reader, if
those surmlises concern you, procure Dr. CULTEftWELL'S little
MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life, " pub. lu 2 'vols., Is.
each (by nest, in stamps, 15. 6d. each). Let ne imaginatively
relined, er prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
0Y Inkinterpretatior. of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle ceriosity, but
for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they nre offered as antagonistic to the entpyrical trash put forth on
the above subiects. by authors, whieh alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by poet Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and 4. Hove to be nappy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
Mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
Itto.whe owee his present existence, health, and positioa to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—tit do unto others as ke
'mild be done unto—tc live atter nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be bad of
