ADVICE TO WIvEs.-A wifi

ADVICE TO WIvEs.-A wife
must necessarily learn to form her
husbands happiness, i'll whatever
direction the secret lies; she must
not cherish his weakness by work
ing upon them; she must not rash
ly run counter to his prejudices !;
her motto must be never to irritate
She must study never to draw
largely on the small stock of pa
tience in a mans nature, nor to
increase his obstinacy by trying to
drive him; never never, if possible,
have scenes; I doubt much if a
quarrel, even though made up,
does not loosen the bond between
man and wife, and unless the affec-
tons Of both be very sincere, even
laStingly. If irritation should &C.
cur, woman must expect to hear
from most men a strength and We
hemence of language far more than
the occasion requires. Mild as well
as stern men, are prone to this ex-
agcration of language; let not a
woman be tempted to say anything
sarcastic or violent in return. The
bitterest repentance must needs
follow, if she does. Men frequent
ly forget what they have said but
seldom what is uttered by their
wives. They are grateful too, for
fOrbearance in such case; for,
whilst asserting most loudly that
they are right, they are often con-
scious that they are wrong. Give
a little time, is the greatest boon
you can bcstow, to the irritated
feelings of your husband.-[Ex.
