WRpDED LrFE.-He cannot be an unhappy
man Who has the love and smile of woman to
accompany him in every department ofhfe. The
world may look dark and cherries without
enemies may gather in his pa,h-but when he
returns to the 6reside, and feels the tender love
of a woman, he forgets his cares and troubles,
and is comparatively happy man. He is but
half prepared for the journey of life who has no
loving companion, Who will forsake him in 10
