THE VALUE OF A HUSBANDS SOUL,

The Hquor-dealer's wife, whose con-
science was i'll at ease in relation 10 the
traffic in intoxicating liquors, awaiting her
self of an suspicious moment, said to her
husband:
IL do not like your selling liquor; IL
seems TO me to be bad business; you do
not, suppose, make more than one or
two hundred dollars a year by it, and
should be very much rejoiced II you
would give it up"
Il know" answered the husband, " as
well as you do, that it is bad business
| should be as glad to give it up as you
would be to have me, and if did not
make more than one or two, or even five
hundred dollars a year by it, I would give
til up"
How much, them" inquired the wife
" do you make ?"
"Why," replied the husband, " make
from two to three thousand dollars year
and that is quite too much to be relin
pushed"
"What you say" she rejoined, bring
to my mind the remarks of lecturer
