Ny brethren, SIM You know that
marriage is q divine institution, and
that every one of yUu should have
wife. what kind of Il rib would YOU Sc
lect? 4 pretty little useless doll. OF a

would look for personal charms. o
you foolish idClat0rS at the shrine of
beauty Know ven not that thousands
OT husbands aTc NAB miserable by
handsome wives. and that thousands
are happy IN possession of hOmely
ones! HOmely without, but beautiful
within. Alas! what Is beauty? 1t is
a Hover that willis and withers as soon
rs it IS plucked; Il transient rainbow:
Il tleeting meteor; deceitful wiil-J'-
the wisp; sublimated mOOashine.
The kind of i wife You want j. OF
good morals and knows how to mend
trowsers: who can reconcile peeling
potatoes with practical or fashionable
piety: who can waltz with the church
dash, and sing with the tea kettle.
who understands broomOlOgy, and the
true science of mOpping-whO can knit
stockings without knitting her brow.
and knit up her husbands rayeIed
sleeve of cIre-whO prefers sewing
tears with her needle. 10 sowing taTeS
of scandal with her tongue. Such is
decidedly better half. Take her up
if You can get her-let her be up to her
elbows in the suds of the wash-tub. or
picking geese in the COW stable.
My hearers-My text speaks Of a
lady AZ the wash tub. You may think
il absurd, but let me assure you that a
female can be 4 lady beside a wash tub
or in a kitchen us much as in q draw

paint for the cheeks. false hair or still
falSer airs; but it is her department,
her intellectual endOwments, and that
evidence Of virtue which commands
the silent respect and admiration of
the world. She would be recognized
as a lady at Once-it matters not where
or in what situation she was found
whether scOrching bedbugs with a rcd
hot poker, or hOllering hallelujah at
Methodist camp-meeting. All that
have further TO say, fellOw-bIchelOrs,
is, that when YOU marry, see that YOU
get lady inside and Out--One who
knows how to keep the poU a boiling,
and looks well 10 her household. so
