the way of world, to assume condi-
ton of prosperity that does not exist,
or at least to hold from those who should
know them, truths Of importance to
the well being Of the parties concerned?
Is there not stubborn pride in our ma
ture. which would rather suffer than
confess? are there not hundreds Of cou-
pies in this community who are com
parative strangers in thought Are
there not many husbands who are pur-
suing the same course that wehave de-
scribed above, and who while they de-
plore and regret the extravaganza and
expensive mode of living pursued BY
their wives, permit those wives to re,
main in Ignorance as to their income,
resources, expenditures, and prospects?
Be assured, gentle reader, that frank
ness and confidence are essential to the
married life, and that those who com
mence the welded condition, by a sys-
tenn of concealment, will sooner or la
ter repent, and with the utmost bitter
ness, the folly of such course.
