A Study Of Husbands.

From the AT1onaat
We hear much about the art of
winning husband. Let us take a
step further and make a study out of
keeping a husband. Ii he is worth
winning, he is worth keeping.
This is a wicked world, and man
is dreadfully mortal. Let us take
him Just as he is, and not as he ought
to be. In the first place he is very
weak. The wife must spend the first
two years in discovering all these
weaknesses, count them. on her fin.
gers, and learn them by heart. The
fingers of both hands will not be too
many. Then let her study up these
weaknesses, with g mesh for every
one, and the secret is hers. Is he
fond OF a good dinner? Let her tight
en- it around him with fragrant
coffee, light bread and good things
generally, and reach his heart through
his stomach. Is he fond of hattery
about his looks? Let her study the
dictionary for sweet words if her
supply gives out Does he like to
hear her talk about his brilliant intel
lect? Let her pore over the encyclo-
pedia to give variety to the depth OF
her admiration. Flattery is a good
thing to study up at all hazards, in
it's delicate shades, but it, must be
skilfully done. The harpy who may
try to coax him away will not do it
absurdly. Is he fond of beauty
Here's the rub-let her be bright and
tidy; that is half the victory. Next
let her bang her hair metaphorically
and keep up with the times. A hus'
band who sees his wife look like
other people is not going TO consider
her "broken down" Though it is a
common sheer that woman has adj
mitted that her sex consider more, in
marrying, the tastes OF her friends
than her own, yet it must not be con-
sidered ludicrous that man looks at
his wife with the same eyes that
other people do. Is he fond ofliterary
matters? Listen to him with wide~
open eyes when he talks of them.
A man does not so much care for
literary wife if only she will be
literary enough to appreciate him.
If she have literary inclinatious let
her keep them to herself. Men love
to be big and great to their wives.
That's The reason why a helpless lit
tie woman can marry three times to
sensible, self reliant woman once.
Cultivate helplessness. Is he GU
rious? Oh, then, you have treas
ure; you can always keep him if you
have a secret, and only keep it care>
fu,Iv. Is he jealous! Then, woman
this is not ior you; cease reading
cease torturing that fretted near.

To Learn to Let GO.

Prom Fr0xey-s Magazine.
There is lesson, only learned as
we grow old, which lightens materi-
ally the burden which was borne in
earlier years. it is the lesson to let
go, to leave hold, to give up. 1t is a
lesson very slowly aud very hardly
learned, through discipline which
may we'll be called heart>breaking.
I am not thinking now of the leaving
go our hold upon those who must go
before us from this world, but only
of the ceasing to hold, or we think
we hold in our protecting grasp those
who must 60 out from US, who must
go away. You tancied You must
keep your children always about you;
that you could not live unless you
had your arm(so to speak)round them
all; that they could not live unless
this were so. Even when one and
another must 60 out from under the
roof, you seemed still to be keeping
your hold of them; still directing
what they should do. You had to
learn to let 60. You could not keep
your hold; it was needless; they did
not want you to do it. 1t is nat ural
to desire to'keep in your hand all
that you care for. l remember
well how one who after many years
OF modest means, suddenly succeeded
to large fortune, was bewildered ON
learning in how many various ways
and places these scores of thousands
were invested, and said earnestly,
81 wish had it all tied up in bag
and put under my pillow"
= So would simple,mInded parents
keep their children under the pater>
nal roof. OF course it cannot bel
and you must be reconciled, as you
can, to your boys being far away

world" worn mother said to me
the other day, speaking of the
boys and girls of great house,

have scattered wide: II did moi

see I'm living after ALL" The words
were said with very sad smile. Yes

"He told my darter that he would

Almighty woHld curse you. sir, il / wa,

Scovllle, with much feeling, protested
against the proposition of the district at.
torney, which could not be understood
by any one other than an invitation n
all who heard it to shoot the prisoner Il
opportunity offered After a most i'm.
presslve argument By Judge Porter. in
which he repealed the reflection of conn
sci for defense upon the district attorney.
Judge Cox gave his opinion, STATING
that no certain measure to silence the
prisoner could have been taken that
would not have alb 'idged his constitu-
tlonal rights; whereas it had been
deemed, and he thought rig htly, that the
prisoners behavior and uttersrces would
prove the best means Of determining his
mental condition. he ordered the pris-
oner removed to the dock, VIII Oh was
then done.
The prisoner spoke to the Judge in an
lnslnuating voice, and promised to keep
quiet If allowed to remain with his
counsel but Judge Co replied: You
will go to the dock because no reliance
can be placed in your promises" Then
L move, your Honor. that the court
room be cleared" 4 passage was m ade
through the crowd and the prisoner was
finally seated in the dock II 'aint

mighty will protect nae as he has doRe "
new n, H, place he called out,
your honor, it gives me much better OPP
portunity to see." After one or two out
bursts On the part Of the prisoner the
examination progressed 70. several min
utes without incident. Scovile handed
up the plaster cast Of Guiteau's head and
inquired if the irregularities were suffi-
Gent to attract his attention. THAT looks
like the hampty dumpty," shouted
Guiteau, as the witness held up the head
and closely examined it. "Corkhill, I'm
indebted TO you for this fine seat; it's q
great improvement " The witness
thought the head was decidedly we'll
shaped, though he attached very little
Importance to such matters. He had, in
his asylum, insane persons with very
symmetrical heads, and knew plenty Of
sane people with very ill-shsped heads.
The witness did roq believe Guiteau had
been feigning insanity in the court house,
but thought he had exaggerated his nat
ursl characteristics, vanity, inselence
and audscity. Guiteau shouted, "You
mean, when I am assaulted hit back.
You see, old Porter has been promised
SIS, 900 if he would get me hanged. He
sees the American people don't want me
hanged, and his fee is therefore slipping
through his grasp. That makes him
mad" AS the crier announced the adj
journment Of the court, GuiteAu called
out, "Oh, I'll get in my work ever here;
don't you worry about that"
