ONE RIGHT OF A WIFE.

-
SAID this with quite show of assur-
ance though / really felt quite uneasy
as to the reception Of my request, for
John is rather notional in some of MS
ways; however, had been cogitating
some matters lately in my own mind,
, and determined to make bold sta,d.
well Sarah AZ length came the re-
ply, won need not count on my doing
any such thing. don't approve Of that
society at all, and not one cent Of my
mon ey shall 90 to help it,
# give it out OF my money, said l.,
growing bolder; II only asked You to
leave it at her door for me.
Io,ur money! What DO YOU mean
Imesn wha, l say-n.y II oaey, Have
10 right to spend money as well as
YOU? do not approve OF the Masuns
but that does not hinder you from spend
ing money and time for them "a much as
YOU have mind
John looked at me, quite amazed at my
sudden outbreak. You see, had always
been the most amicable of wives. Then
lie broke ont quite triumphantly:
Come, now, who earns the money
that maintain this family

one atom more of gratitude to you for
