How to Keep a wife's Love.

Many men, believe, would retain tie

women they marry much longer, if they
would rzprcss the tvudsrnvss they really feel
oftener.
Women love to hear things talked about
They like to hear husband say that be loves.
over aud over again. They like to have him
tell them, in plain terms, that be misses them
when they are absent. They ike compIi-
meuts that come from the heart, however
free they may be from vanity. And little
praise OF dress, or face, or manner is a mighty
comfort 20 one who has given herself to one
man for her iiie-iiue.
Il is said that women have moro imagina-
ton than men, but in matters Of love scarce
~ think that it is 50. Man will believe in
womeu's love with far less visible token Of it
