MATRIMONY.

The man must lead happy life
Who is directed by his wife;
Who's free from matrimonial chains
Is sure to suffer for his pains.
Adam could find no solid peace
Until he saw a woman's face;
When Eve was given for mate
Adam was in happy state.
In all the female heart appears
Truth, darling of heart sincere;
Hypocrisy, deceit, and pride,
Meier known in woman to reside.
What tongue is able to unfold
The worth in woman we behold;
The falsehoods that in woman dwell
Is almost imperceptible.
Cursed be the foolish man, say,
Who will not yield to womau's sway;
Who changes from his singleness
Is sure of perfect blessedness.

THE REASON WHY,

Can anybody tell why, when Eve was
manufactured from one of Adams ribs, a
hired girl wasn't made at the time to wait
on her?
= We can, easily? Because Adam never
came whining to Eve with ragged stock
ing to be darned col!ac string to be sew
ed on, glove to be mended, right away,
quick nowv Because he never read the
newspaper until the sun got down behind
the palm trees, and then stretched himself,
yawuins out, 'Aint supper most ready, my
dear?'
He made the fire and hung over the tea
kettle himself, we'll venture, and pulled
the radishes, and peeled the bananas, and
did everything else that he ought to! He
MIXED the cow and fed the chickens, and
looked after the pigs himself He never
brought home half dozen to dinner, when
Eve hadn't any fresh pomegranates and the
mango season was over
He never stayed out until eleven o'clock
to a ward meeting, hurrahing for the
out and out candidate, and then scoldins
because poor dear Eve was sitting up and
crying inside the gates To be sure he acted
rather cowardiy about apple. gathering time,
but then that don't depreciate his general
helpfuloess about the garden He never
? played billiards, nor drove fast horses, nor
ever choked Eve with cigar smoke
He never loafed around corner groceries
while solitary Eve was rocking little Cain Is
cradle at home. In short, he didn't think
she was specially created for the purpose of
waiting on him, and wasn't under the i'm
preston that it disgraced a man to tighten
his wife's cares little.
That's the reason that Eve did not need
hired girl, and We wish it was the reason
that none of her fair descendants did

- A clergyman, wishing to be rid of his
horse, aud try for better one, directed
the old negro man to sell his beast for what
he would bring, or to exchange him for az
other, adding, at the same time, an anxiou;
caution not to deceive the purchaser, anc
even enumerating the faults of the animal
lest one should be overlooked.
Remember, Pompey, he has four faults.

Pompey told his story, and that his mas

AMERICAN. FoNDNEss FOR APPEAR
ANcE.-What a tendency there is in this
American world of ours, to value appear
ances rather than realities One half Of
our families are constantly in the struggle
to keep up appearances. The fault COM
uences very early in the history of our
families Our young mechanics or merch.
ants marry early, and it is we'll they should
do so, provided they would be content with
simple style of living, suited to their
means, and be satisfied with increasing their
furniture and dress, and other family ex.
penses, only as they prospered. But the
young mechanic when hc'marries, feels too
often that he must live in the same style
that the bosses do. His wife, too, frequent
ly young, gay, dashing, thoughtless girl,
feels even more ambitious than he does,
and the pair start in life with furniture a.
bove their means Everything then must
correspond, and dress and expenses of liv-
ing become extravagant. 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 hard one,
against the wind and tide, and current
The man may work hard and earn much.
but he and his wife started wrong. For the
first year the wife should have done her
own work. She should have been content
ed with palmer furniture, designed for use
and not ornament, and he should have been
contented with less luxurious eating, drink
ing and smoking. Oh, this struggle to keep
up appearance is terrible to young me-
chanic! 1t is hard, hard life, to be all
the time striving to gain and to keep the
front seats in society, when property does
not warrant it.
The young merchant, too, often makes
the same mistake. His career, his struggle,
his end, will be similar to that of the me-
chanic, upon slightly more dangerous
scale, and, generally, with more ambi-

both husband and wife, that their respect
ability and even their success in business
will depend upon the style they assume
The young merchant is in more danger of
shipwreck in keeping up appearances than
the young mechanic. The work of the lat
ter furnishes an income known beforehand,
while the profits of the former are uncertain.
The former, likewise, will 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 thriving
merchant.
Young professional men have the same

Many spend their whole existence in row.
ing against wind and tide. Their young
wives, too, have more ambition and pride of
rank and station-more of the foolish no.
tions 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 with the station in
which God has placed them.
