A Chapter from Real Life.

1t was about eighteen years ago that a pref
ty, bright-eyed woman, TO whom the world
seemed beautiful and life a joy, trustingly and
lovingly gave herself in marriage to a young
man. Hers was the deep, pure love of a true
woman. For time there was happiness.
child was born, and the wife fondly hoped
that the little one would be an aid to her in
attracting her husband more constantly to
his home. second year passed, and anoth-
er tiny member was added to the family circle.
The husband and father grew less and less
thoughtful of his home. The mother strug-
gled for food and clothing for herself and
children; want, as well as sorrow, was now
upon her. Another year dragged, one by one,
its wretched months along; many times the
drunken husbands blows fell heavily upon
the feeble body of the wife and mother. A
third babe was born, and this time the hands
of charity nursed in the sick room The
husband, besotted and miserable, had deserted
the now faded and sickly woman, who, when
well and comely, had confdingly become his
wife. Her sickness, restitution and sorrow,
oyercame her reason, and she was committed
as a pauper to the insane hospital. For
eleven long years her eyes stared vacantly
within the walls of that institution eleven
ing springs, summers, autumns and winters
in their turn,-but this once fair young life
could take no note of them. The world to
her was a meaningless waste. One year ago
she was removed from the hospital, not being
considered sufficiently insane to remain there:
and she has since lain on pallet in the aims
house ofths city, wasting away with consump-
ton, though ministered to with kind hands,
that make the most of the meagre comforts
afforded by the city to its paupers. On Mon
day morning-"How did you rest last night!'
asked the kind nurse: 90, lie kept plaguing
me all night,-you must kill him! "-faintly
responded the broken-hearted, shattered mind
ed, feeble wife and mother, whose wasted body
will ere many months be lowered into a hole
in the paupers' lot What to her the beautiful
spring, the swelling buds, the opening flow
ers? what to her is the season of sunshine
and hope? And what to her are the nine or
ten christian churches in the city, as she lies
on her rude pauper's bed in the alms.house?
