ADVICE To YoUNo MEN,-Get mar,
ried, young man, if you have arrived at
the right point of life for it; let every
consideration give way to that of getting
married.
A good wife is tho most faithful and
constant companion you can possibly have
by your side while performing the jour
ney of life. She can sweeten your sour
moments as well as your tea and coffee ;
and, instead OF sowing weeds of sorrow in
your path, she will plant happiness in
your bosom. When woman loves, she
loves with double distilled devotedness
and when she hates, it is on the high pres
suro principle - Her love is as deep as the
ocean, and strong as a hsmpen halter
