the little cottage, and the Duke was
not sent to the Bastile.
WIVES Tiki ARE STRANGERS. Illus
bands do not talk with their wives.
II neighbor is married, they tell Of
it, If a battle is fought, or n village
burnt down, they communicate the
fact; but for any interchange of
thought or sentiment or emotion,
FOR any conversation that is invigorat-
ing, inspiring, that causes thrill or
leaves glow, how often does such
thing occur between husband and wife.
What intellectual meeting is there,
what shock of electricities? When a
definite domestic question is to be de-
cided, the wife's Judgment may be
sought, and that IS better than
solitary stumbling on, regardless Of
her views or feelings; but. this sort
of Observation-Disclosures discussion of ways
and means is not the gentle, Animal
ed play Of conversation; not that
pleasant sparkle which enlivens the
hours, thai trustful confidence which
lightens the heart, that welding of
weapons which strengthens the arm,
that sweet instructive unveiling which
increases respect and deepens love
and fills the heart with inexpressible'
tenderness. Yet there is nobody in
the world with whom it is so impor-
tant for. man to be intimately ac-
quainted as his own wife, while such
intimate acquaintance is the excep-
ton rather than the rule. Every one
sees them going on each in his own
path, each with his own inner world
Of opinions and hopes and memories,
one in name, miserably two in all
else. Men often have too much
confidence in their measuring lines
They fancy they have circumnavigated
the globe when they have only pad
died in cove. They trim their sails
for other seas, leaving the priceless
gems of their own undiscovered.
To many a man no voyage of ex-
ploration would bring such rich re.
turns, as a persevering and affectionate
search into the resources Of the heart
which he calls his own. Many man
would be amazed at the meek, timid,
apologize recipient of his caprices, in
the worn and fretful invalid, in the
common place, insipid, domestic weak
ling he scorns an angel unawares.
Many wife is wearied and neglected
into moral shabbiness, who, rightly
entreated, would have walked sister
and wife of the gods. Human nature
in certain directions is as infinite as
the Divine nature, and when a man
turns away from his wife, under the
impression that he has exhausted her
capabilities, and must seek elsewhere
the sympathy and companionship he
Graves or go without it, altogether, let
him reflect that the chances are at
least even that he has not exhausted
himself, and that the soil that seems
to him fallow might in other hands or
with wiser culture yield most plen-
