ECONOMY IN A FAMLY.-There is |
nothing, says good wri'er, which goes
90 far towards placing young people
beyond the reach oil povl rty as econo- !
rny in the management Of domestic al.
fairs. 1t matters not whe ther man
furnishes little or much for his family, If
there is continual lcakag e in his kitchen
and parlor it runs away he kno ws not
how, and that demon, Waste, cries,
More y like the horse-leeeh's daughter.
until he that provided has no more to
give. 1t is the husbands duty 10 bring
ample provisions into tho house, and
the wiie's to see that none goes wrong
fully out OF il. A man ge ets a wife TO
look after his affairs, and to assis! him
in his journey through life 10 educate
and to prepare his children tor proper
station in life, and not 10 dissipate his
property. The husbands interest should
be the wife's care, and her greatest an'-
bi,ion carry her no further than his well
are or happiness, with that Of her chill
dren. THIS should be her sole aim, and Il
the theatre oil her exploits in the bosom
O her family where she may do as much
towards making fortune, as he can in
the counragroom or the workshop. Ii
- not the money earned that makes
man weaIihv--it Is what lie snves from
his earnings. Self qualification IN
dress, or indulgence in appetite, or mole
company than his purse can we'll enter
tam, are equally pernicious. The first
adds vanity TO extravaganza, the second
lens DOCTORS bill to a long butchers
