HUSBAND AND WlEE.-A man is good

would he have been with another wife p
No husband at all, perhaps, or worse than
none. His goodness is his wife's: or more
his wife's than his. It's well, we say,
that under any influence he can be good !;
but let him not take all the credit Of his
goodness to himself The bigger share is
due to his half Some might be good, il
tried, to two or three in succession: some,
but to one; and some, alas, to none. A
woman is good wife. This, too, is well.
But bow much of her goodness is her
husLand'sf She cannot tell. Perhaps
two.thirds. Then let her not be proud
Let her keep from boosting. Let her
cherish modest thoughts Of herself, and
form charitable judgements Of others, and
her virtue will be all the greater, and her
comfort al the safer. G.
