The old man bit his lip.

Maxfms for Married Ladies'.

The following mazims, if persusd,
will not only make men love married
life, but cause them to be good husbands;
The frst is to be good yourself; to avoid
all thoughts Of managing your husband.
Never try to deceive or impose on his
understanding nor give him une asiness
but treat him with affection, sincerity,
and respect Remember that husbands,
at best are only men subject like your
selves, to error and frailty. Be not sang
uine, then before marriage, or promise
yourselves happiness without alloy.
Should you, discover any thing 10 his
humor or behavior not altogether what
you expected or wish, pass it over, smooth
your own temper and try to mend bis. by
attention, cheerfulness and good nature.
Never reproach him with misfortunes,
which are the accidents and in6rmities of
life, burden which each has engaged to
assist the other in supporting, and to
which both parties are equally exposed
but, instead of murmurings and reflect
ions, divide the sorrows between you;
make the best of it, and it will be easier
to both, 1t is the innate Office of the
softer sex to soothe the troubles of the
other. Resolve ever morning to be cheer
full all day, and should any thing occur to
break your resolution, suffer it not to put
you out of temper with your husband.
Dispute not with him. be the occasion
what it may; but much sooner deny
yourself the trife of having your own
will, or gaining the better af an argument
than risk quarrel, or create heart
burning, which it is impossible to see the
end Of. Implicit submission in a man
to his wife, is ever disgraceful to both;
but implicit submission in the wife is
what she promised to the altar, what the
good will revere her for, and what is in
fact an honor TO her.
Be assured, woman's power, as well
as her happiness. has no other foundation
that her husbands esteem and love,
which it is her interest, by all possible
means to preserve and increase Study
therefore, his temper, and command your
own. Enjoy with him satisfaction, share
and soothe his cares, and with the utmost
assiduity, conceal his infirmities.

And new having disposed of the bow.wow of

noisy cats, who, like Romeo and Juliet WOO by
