Men spen1 tbeir lives in ant;c;.

Men spend their lives in antici'

~ happy at some period or other,
when they have time. But the
present time has one advantage
over every Other-it is our own.
Past opportunities are gone, flu

would lay in a stock of wine; but
if we defer tasting them too long,
we shall find that both are Soured

fore, he n modest mansion, which
we can inhabit while we have our
health and vigor to enjoy it; not a
fabric, So vast and expensive that
it has cost us the hest part of our
lives to build it, and which we
can expect to occupy only when
we have less occasion for a habi-
tation than Il tomb. 1t has been
we'll observed, that we should
treat tuturity as an aged friend

us not he too prodigal when we

when we are old, otherwise we
shall fall into the common error of
those, who, when they had the
power to enjoy, had not the pru
dehce to acquire; and when they
had the prudence to acquire, had
no longer the power to enjoy.

In the year OF 1862, there lived,
at Akron, Ohio, a young bricklay,

together quite happily for a while,
but OF sudden the husband dis.
appeared and came out West. He
went to California, to Colorado,
to British Columbia, to any place,

gold or silver lead. 1t is not re.
corded that he made any money,
Indeed, a rolling stone gathers

lie did not write to his wife from
the year 1862 to the year 1869. A
long time truly, if on one side
there was love and on the other
consistency. She might believed
him deadand felt relieved she
might have deemed him taithIess
antt felt sorrowtul; she might have
still been true to the memory of
her earlier vows and felt Il tender
emotion. By the sequel, however,
shall one best Judge Of her heart.

employed him said:

1t was indeed their first meet
ing since 1862. Explanations fol
lowed. The husband was by no
means hard to appease. The wife,
it appears, had followed his en-
ployer from her home in Ohio, was
living with him as his wife, and
