pieces by the intense cold, and the rcaliza.
ton of some other mishaps made him red
hot although the atmosphere was unmis-
takably Siberian. Deacon as he was,
Hathaway expectorated a multiplicity Of
Flanders oaths that day and his arrival
home was marked by no distinguishing
exhibition of serenity. Indeed, so exer-
cised was Hathaway that, while in the act
Of pulling off his boots, he got enraged and
kicked one of them clean through the win
dow. This little episode elected bread
grin from William Henry, and the remark
that he thought that Jackson--a white mule,
not the head of the family -had kicked over
the corn crib; Janet glanced sympathetic
ally at her mother-who had burst into
tears simultaneously with the flight of the
boot aforesaid then joined that good
woman in her demonstration of grief. An
drew took in the domestic tableau at once;
and, dispatching William Henry for the
boot, patted Vashti upon the forehead, and
said
"I'm not mad at you, my dear, so don't
cry"
II know you're not mad at me, Andrew"
responded Mrs. Mrs. Hathaway; shut you
lose control of yourself so much, lately,
that you make things very unpleasant at
times. You ought to be ashamed of your
self say this very feelingy, Andrew for
| love you, oh, so very, very much-but
here are Billy and fanny growing UP so
fast; and, my dear, you ought to at least
set them no bad examples. Only week
ago you came home in Just another such a
fit, and ripped off both your back suspen-
der buttons in your anger"
But, Eashti-"
"Oh, you always have some excuse.

like to have them; but there's no use In
your getting maitland especially before
the children. 1t nearly breaks Janny's
heart to see you in passion, and Billy, as
you must have noticed, has already COM
menced to make fun of you. Another
thing, now that we are on the subject let
me tell you, Andrew, that you are not only
violent and very violent, too in your tenn
per, at times, but you are very obstinately
set in your ways. You never consult me,
either, in any of your movements, and when
you make up your mind to do thing,
nothing but disappointment or disaster can
change you. Don't you think
it would be better, first to
make me acquainted with your
projects, or some Of them, and let me put
my little stock of wisdom and womanly
plans together with your hopes and under
takings? Two heads you know, Andrew,
are said to be better than one, and it strikes
me that husband and wife should be full
partners; and 1t would be so pleasant, too.
| want to share with you, as you ought to
know, in all your pleasures and griefs, in
all your properties and adversities.
want to be part of you in all things, and
at all times and places. l know you love
me, and | know we get along pretty well
generally. And, were it not for your quick
temper and obstinacy, we would be the
happiest couple in the world Now, say
this from the most loving standpoint, An
drew, and | say it for your own good, and
for the happiness and future prosperity of
you, my dear husband, myself, and our
dear, loving children"
