occasion to be happy when she found
herself the wife of such a great aud
good man.
Washington married q widow with
two children. 1t is enough to say of
her that she was worthy Of him, and
that they lived as married folks should,
in perfect harmony.
John Adams married the daughter Of
a Presbyterian clergyman. Her father
objected, on account of Johns being a
lawyer, he had bad opinion of the
morals Of the profession.
Thomas Jefferson married Mrs.
Martha Skelton, a childless widow, but
she brought MIN a large fortune in real
estate. After the ceremony she mounted
the horse behind him and they rode
home together. It was late in the even
ing, and they found the FIRE out. But
the great statesman hustled around and
rebuilt it, while she seized the broom
and soon put things in order. 1t is
needless to say that they were happy,
though Jefferson died a poor man, on
account of his extreme hberalily and
hospitality.
John Howard, the great philanthro-
pist, married his nurse. She was alto
gether beneath him in social life and in
tellectual capacity, and besides this, was
ffty-two years old while he was but
twenty five. He would not take " No"
for an answer, and they we're married,
and lived happily together until her
death, which occurred two years after
wards.
Peter the Great of Russia, married a
peasant girl. She made an excellent
wife and a sagacious empress. Humboldt
married a poor girl because he loved her

Women, of course But they show
the same diversity of taste that is seen
in the lower ranks, and, on the whole,
make worse mistakes. They, however,
generally show the same sense in chcos-
ing wives that they show in managing
other peoples affairs, whether 1t be good
or bad.
Robert Burns married farm girl
with whom he fell in love while they
worked together in the plow field. He,
too. was irregular in his life, and COM
mitted the most serious mistakes IN con-
dueting his domestic affairs.
Milton married the daughter of a
country squire, but lived with her but a
short time. He was an austere, exact
ing, literary recluse; while she was a
rosy. romping country lass that could
not endure the restraint imposed upon
her, so they separated. Subsequently,,
however, she returned, and they lived
tolerably happy.
Queen Victoria and Prince Albert
