A HanaY Home.

Tie fri st year of married life is
the most important era in the history
of man and wife. Generally as it IS
spent, SO isalmost all subsequent ell
istence. The wife and husband then
asSimilate their views and their do
sir les; or conjuring up their dislikes,
they add fuel to their prejudices and
amino sities forever afterwards.
II have somewhere read" says the
Rev. DR.. Wise, in his Bridal Greet
ings, "of a bridegroom " no glQried in
his eccentricities. He requested his
bride TO accompany him into the gar
den day or two after the wedding.
He then threw line over the root
Of their cottage. Giving his wife
one end Of it, be retreated to the
other side and exclaimed:
"Pull the liner'
Il can't,'' she replied:
@Pnll with all your mightl'' shout
ed the whimsical husband.
But in vain were all the efforts Of
the bride to pnllover the line, so long
as the husband held on the opposite
end. But when he came round, and
lthey both pulled at one end, it came
over with GREAT ease.
"frhere, said he, as the line fell
from The 1901, "yoil see how hardsand
iineflectp pal was our labor when VIC

but how. easy and pleasant it is When
we both pull together, 1t will be so
my dear, through life. If we oppose
each other, it viii be hard Work; if We
act together. it viii be pleasast t.

together
In this illustration, homely as i
Way be, there is sound philosophy
Husband and wife must mutually
Lear and conccde, if they wish t
make q retreat OF JOY and bliss. Ont

must lie unison of action, sweetness
