American Fondness for Appear
hngp.

What a tendency there is in this Am
ercan world Of orr to value appearances
rather than realities! 0ne.half of our
families are constantly in the struggle to
keep up appearances. The fault com
inences very early in the history Of our
families. Our young mechanics or mer-
chants marry early, and it is we'll they
should do SO, provided they would be con-
tent with simple style of living, suited
to their means, and be satisfied with in
creasing their furniture and dress and
other family expenses, only as they are
prospered. But the young mechanic feels
too often, when lie marries. that he must
live in the same style that the bosses do
His wife-.too frequently young, gay,
dashing thoughtless girl-feels even more
ambitious than he does, and the pair
start in life with furniture above their
means. Everything then must cores
pond, and dress and expenses Of living
become extravigant. Then follows the
inevitable Bridget, whose waste and
board and wages amount to large sum.
Then commences the lifelong struggle to
keep up appearances. The struggle is
a hard one against the wind and tide and
current The man may work hard and
earn much. but he and his wife started
W, ong. For the first year the wife should
have done her own work. She should
have been contented with palmer furniture
designed for use and not ornament, and
he should have been contented with less
luxurious eating, and drinking and smok-
ing. Oh, this struggle to keep up ap-
pearances is terrible to young mechanic
Is is a hard, hard life to be all the time
striving to gain and and to keep the front
seats in society when property does not
warrant it.
The young merchant, too, often makes
the same mistakes. His career, his strug-
gle and his end will be similar to that of
the mechanic, upon slightly more dan
gerous scale, and, generally, with more
ambitious wife. There is wrong feel
ing about both husband and wife that
their respectability and even their success
in business will depend upon the style
they assume. The young merchant is in
uioiO uouSOi vi ouiPioSh III hcoPihS UP
appearances than the young mechanic
The work of the latter furnishes an income
known before hand, while the profits of
the former are uncertain. The former
will likewise labor under the constant
temptation of striving to get rich too fast
and will sustain his means and his credit
to keep up appearances as a thriving mer'
chant
Young professional men have the same
rocks before them in the voyage of life
Many spend their whole existence in row
ing against wind and tide. Their young
wives, too, have more iambition---mor,
pride OF rank and station---and more O
the foolish notions of idleness and luxury
Few of them are fitted for their condition,
and they have the sad project before them
of a struggle to keep up appearances
When will men learn to be contented will
the station in which God has placed them
