Onr Wives.

A young woman during the first week
of her married life entertains vague sus.
picions that the statements OF older
wives that the way to mans heart is
through his mouth are true. Her
Charles, who is always if not quite ex-
empt from human tailings, has already
manifested profound admiration for
veal pies, and has openly expressed his
detestation to overdone mutton. She
accordingly builds up with her fortress
of resolution in which to guard that
sacred treasure of a husbands affection.
In her girlhood this young woman had
spent much time in cutivating her
musical taste, in reading Emerson and
Carlyle; she had been fond of pretty
landscapes, and could use her pencil with
effect, and she had been heard to declare
with pride that when she married she
would give mp none of these things.
Let us visit her now, at the end of ten
years OF matrimony, and we will find
that she has broken her vow and thrown
it to the winds. We find tiresome
sort of person, whose whole intellect is
absorbed in attending to the cares of
housekeeping, and getting stylish dresses
for her children. Her conversation rises
seldom above the level of infant gossip
and servants, and the only ideas develop
ed by time and experience are expressed
in her conviction that men are the most
unreasonable and selfish creatures, and
women the most abused and selfsacrifc-
ing.
There is a great evil somewhere, but
what is it? The husband acknowledged
to himself that he is disappointed in the
wife he has chosen, and yet he finds
difficulty in pointing out his mistake,
and hardly finds cause to blame her,
for she is not a faithful wife, a devoted
mother and a most frugal manager &?
The mistake is a national charac-
teristic. So passionate and intense
is the American mind in pursuit of its
temporary interests, the men will suffer
the chains Of business to bind them down
and throttle them, while their wives
bend beneath a similar yoke of duty at
home.
What is lacking is the power to rise
above the petty annoyances Of daily life /;
we need to learn 10 distinguish trihes
from affairs Of moment, to know that
every mole-hill is not mountain. We
need not forsake the upper strata of
sentiment, thought and ideaity-the
atmosphere of the soul-because we know
that there is a lower one of routine and
small vexations in which our feet are
told to tread 10 breathe in the one is
to receive strength and reireshment for
exertion in the other. 1t is a good plan
to pick up needles and pins from the
floor, but picking pins ought not to be
made the chief object OF existence for if
we move along with our heads constantly
downward, we most assuredly will see
nothing better than pins and needles to
the end Of our days. Philadelphia Bul-

CultIe-Fish Casting its Ink.

Mr.. Frank Buckland, the well known
English naturalist, describes, in Land
and Water, his good fortune in seeing,
under favorable conditions, cuttle>tish
casting its ink Three or four specimens
of cuttes live in the Westminster
aquarium. One of them, in passing the
window of his tank, evidently mistook
the naturalist fer foe. 49," writes
Mr.. Buckland, "as he swan along he
elected from his inkbag a jet of what
looked like cloud of the most intensely
black smoke that ever came from a fac
torv chimney. Instantly the water lost
all transparency. Mr., Cuttle'fsh then
went into the middle Of the water he had
so artfully made Opaque. When there
he elected more ink, aud in less than half
a minute the water round him became
blacker than the blacklist thunder-cloud
ever beheld. The ink gradually dis
nersed itself through the water, forming
clonds of the most delicate shading, fad

which the beast was concealed NOT
