Preserve sacredly the privacies Of your
house, your marriage state aud your hearts
Let not father or mother, brother or sister,
nor any third person ever presume to come
in between you two, to share the joys OF
sorrows that belong to you alone, to you
two With Gods help build your own
quiet world, not allowing the dearest earthly
friend to be the confdant of aught that
concerns your domestic peace. Let mo
ments Of alienation (if they occur be healed
and forgotten at once. Never-no, never
speak of it outside, but each to the Other
confess, and all will come right Never
let the morrow's sun find you still at va
rance. Renew or review the vow at al
temptations it will do you both good
And thereby your souls will grow together
cemeuted 10 that love which is stronge
than death, and you will become truly one
Thus do | pray for every married pair

The Road of Life is not turnpike
road. 1t is path which every one must
find out for himself by the help Of such
directions as God has given us; and there
are 50 many other paths crossing the true
one in all quarters, and the wrong paths are
50 we'll beaten, and the true path in places
is SO family marked, SO many persons, too
are always going the wrong way, that be-
tween the number of paths to puzzle him,
and the number Of wrong examples to lead
him astray, man, if he does not take con-
tinual heed, is in great danger Of turning
into wrong path, almost without perceiv.
ing it. Were 1t not that Gods Word is q
lamp to our feet and a light to our path
were it not for the Spirit of God crying
to US, This is the right way" when We
turn aside to the right hand or to the leit,--
