The Industrious Wife.

Ii is astonishing to see how well a man
may live on small incsme, who has a
handy and Industrious wife. Some men
live and make a far better appearance on
ten or twelve dollars per week than others
do on fifteen or eighteen dollars. The man
does his part WELL but lis wife is good for
nothing; she will even upbraid her hus-
band for not living in as good style as her
neiehbor. while the fault is entirely her
own. His nsighbor has a neat, capable,
and industrious wife, and that makes the
difference. SO look out, young men, be-
fore you 20 into matrimony. 1t is lot
terry in which most men can only buy one
ticket-and If that turns out a blank, your
whole life had better be blank too. Luck
lily, no one need 60 into the welded state
with his eyes shut, as is the case with lot
teries--and we judge all who are sensible
enough to use their optics, may draw
prizes Exchange.

Courting and Divorce.

An old story contains lesson which
many married couples have not yet learn
ed. When Jonathan Trumbull was Gov
erner of Connecticut, gentleman called
at his house one day requesting q privase
interview. He said:
i have called upon an unpleasant ef-
rand sir, and want your advice. My vile
and do not live happily together. and am
thinking of getting a divorce. what 90
you advise me to do?
The Governor sat q few moments IN
thought; then turning to his visitor said.
How did you treat Mrs. w. when you
were counting her? and how did you feel
toward her at the time of your marriage: !:
Squire W. replied, Il treated her as
kindly as | could, tor loved her dearly
at that time
Well, sir said the Governor, go home
and court her now just as you did then,
and loye her as when you married her.
DO this in the tear of God one year and
then tell me the result.
The Governor then said, Let US pray.
They bowed in prayer and separated.
When a year passed away Squire W. call
ed again TO see the Governor, and SAID
4 have called to thauk you for the good
advice you gave me. and to tell you that
my wife and are as happy as when We
were first married. | cannot be grateful
enough for your counsel

body, having hastily collected what DRIFT
wood was within reach still further to con-
ceal his person; and there he lay, half GOV.
cred by the water and the mud, and
awaited the result.
From every direction men were hurrying
to the spot with the perfect assurance that
the daring enemy would soon be within
their power. For long, long hours did
scores of searchers continue to examine
every foot OF the brush that lined the
stream. Many times did hostile feet pass
directly over Stringfeliows body, and once
a man more inquisitive than others
stopped, while walking In the bed OF the
stream. to examine the very spot where
he lay. But the driftwood which he had
skilfully arranged for his concealment de-
ceived the man, and he passed on without
making the discovery. Toward afternoon
the search slackened, and by nighhtfall it
was abandoned. But not until the noise
OF the camps was hushed in slumber did
Stringfellow dare to leave his retreat.
Then, following for some time the course
of the little stream, he passed In SAFETY out
OF the enemy's line, swan the Rapidan be-
tween the pickets, and thankful to God
for his deliverance, found himself once
more among his friends-l General Nc Gel
