For Husbands.

Dent think that your wife has less
feeling than before marriage. Her
relation to you is changed, net her
nature.
Don't think that you can dispense
with all the little civilities toward
her by marrying. She appreciates
those things quite as much as other
women.
Don't be gruff and rude at home.
Had you been that sort of fellow be-
fore marriage, the probabilities are
that you would be sewing on your
buttons still.
Don't make you wife feel that she
is an incumberance on you by giving
grudgingly. What she needs give as
cheerfully, as if it were pleasure to
do so. She will feel better, SO will
you.
Don't meddle in the affairs of the
house under her charge. You have
no more right to be poking your nese
into the kitchen than she has to walk
into your place of business, and give
directions to your employees.
Don't find fault with her extrava-
gance in ribbons, etc., until you have
shut down on tobacco, cigars, beer,
etc.
Don't leave your wife home to
nurse the children on the score of
economy, while you bolt down town
at nights, to see the show or spend q
dollar at billiards.
Don't bolt your supper and hurry
off to spend your evenings, leunging
around. away from your wife. Be-
fore marriage you couldn't spend
evenings enough with her.
Don't prowl about loafing until
midnight, wasting your time IN cuI-
pable idleness, leaving your wife
lonely at home to brood oyel your
neglect and her disappointment.
Don't think that board and clothes
are enough for all a wife does for you.
1t will do husbands no harm to read
the foregoing oyer second time,
then cut it out and paste it in their
hats.

States Revenue Collector, son Of
Judge T. J. Wharton of this place,
and w. HI. Bailey, son of the late
Judge Bailey, of Canton, entered
Muller's restaurant. and seating

oysters and Bailey ordered steak.
Soon after the table had been spread.
Wharton, holding up a large oyster
on his forks prongs, good naturedly
remarked: "This is the kind of oys-

Lincoln and Hooker.

A story going the rounds of the
press relative to President Lincoln's
horSemanship recalls the TACT that
soon after Hooker relieved Burnside
rs commander of the army of the Po-
tomac President Lincoln paid him
visit, landing from steamboat at
Acquia creek, then the base of sup
plies of the army. General Hooker
and several of his stiff rode down to
the creek with sled" horse for the
President, reaching there about
nightlall. After few minutes pass
ed in paying respects to Mr., Lincoln,
the entire party mounted, and set
out in the midst of binding snow
storm for General Hooker's head
quarters near Falmouth, some ten or
twelve miles distant. AS everybody
who was in the army knows, Hooker
was hard rider. The President,
bestriding spirited steed, rode by
the Generals side. or at least tried to,
but Hooker'S war horse was the bet
ter OF the two, and during the ride
kept atAeast neck in advance. On
this occasion Hooker rode furiously.
The wind was keen, and the snow,
which continued to fall faster and fas-
ter, lashed the faces ofthe riders with
the sting of a cat-o'-nine tails; the
night was pitch dark, and the mud
and slush in places was literally
knee deep, Hooker continued to
plunge a head through the mud, with
the President, who never boasted of
his horsemanship, still a neck in the
rear, until he finally ventured the re-
mark that perhaps they bad better
not be in such hurry. "We're most
there now, Mr.. President," rejoined
Hooker, "and better get out of this
internal storm as soon as possible,"
and on went the snOw.cevered and
mud-bespattered cavalcade. The
fact was that the President was ap.
prehensiye that he would be unhors-
ed should his steed stumble or get
foot stuck in the mud, and preferred
the rigors of the storm to having his
neck broken outright. The writer
was present at Hooker's headquar-
ters when the party rein"d in in front
Of the little tented village. Monster
camp fires lit up the surrounding
pines, and although the snew contin-
ued to fall, the sceiie was far from be-
ing a cheerless one. The President,
and, in fact, everybody else, was COW
cred with mud from head to foot !;
his silk tile was a weeping wreck,
and as he dismounted in front of
Hopker's tent he .ungloved and said
to the General, Here, General, are

Hooker. ITO remember your ride by.D
mo, thank yeu," replied Mr.. Lin
coin, surveying his mud-bespattered
person, II shall need nothing to re-
mind me of my ride tonight l shall
always remember it, l assure YOU"
1t may have been the recollection of
that furious night ride which induced
Mr.. Lincoln some months later, in
sending Hooker to Kentucky, to sly
ly warn the General to "steer clear of
Bourbon county"

The "Ifs" Of Life.

What potential word is that little
"if," without which all things might
be different. If husbands and wives
studied each other more, for exam
pie: if each remembered how depen-
dent we all are upon kind words. If
the husband would only strive to win
anew each day the love in the hearts
of their wives, who have given them
all that woman may give-her love,
her life, her present and eternal flu
ture. an absolute surrender of all but
a nominal individuality-if they
were as loving and as solicitous for
the welfare of their wives and their
happiness as they were for the sweet
hearts IN their lover days, how many
a broken heart would never have bro
ken, and how many an untimely
grave would now be empty. And
on the other hand, if wives would re-
member that their husbands need a
little crumb of new love each day to
strengthen them in their battle for
those they love, and if they would
but send them forth at morn and well
come them at nightfall with wife's
blest words and kiss of cheer, how
many thousand eyes would brighten,
and how gladly would they welcome
toll whereas now their only hope of
peace or rest is the grave-a final
home to which they are only too glad
to go.

Kissing and Telling of it.

When the wrong man kisses the
right woman or the right man kisses
the wrong woman--and both some
times happen--it does not always
follow that there is a disturbance
about 1t. The world can never know
how much unauthorized kissing has
been done and forgiven and forgot
ten. In the naturally wild and au-
dacious career of the human kind
there is a great deal of that sort of
business, and 1t is just as well that

Germs everybody. Many of the cares
and trials of this world find relief in
a kiss; it is very little thing, TN

the few luxuries of this world which
well organized people never get too
much Of. Nobody who understands
even the rudiments of kissing dis.
dains its practice, and those who have
been so fortunate as to reach some
thing OF the science of the thing are
not easily restrained in their pursuit
OF supreme happiness. A kiss desen't
cost anything, and it's pretty small
matter to make disturbance about,
and mest people will endure great
sdeal of kissing without getting angry
about it and regarding it as mis-
fortune to make public complaint
Now and then, however, human ma

VIII do the most good the chief aim
of man is to get the kiss, and he is
frequently too hasty and too reckless
about it. But woman is apt to be
little more considerate in her prefer
ences.
There was an Illinois woman, now,
VINO had a prejudice against being
kissed by a tailor-pessibly because
the other eight parts of the man were
not around-although the tailor was
perfectly free to say that he had no
prejudice against kissing the lady.
He regarded her as sweet enough to
kiss and frankly told her so. There
are some cold, proud women who in
some unaccountable way have got
into this world who would not he

number of these is very, very few.
Whether the Illinois woman was one
of this rare kind or not is still mat :
ter of dispute. 1t is also undecided
whether she told the tailor he was
handsome man; she insists that, be.
ing truthful woman, she could not
have done so conscientiously, while
he takes the opposite side of the
question. There is, however, no
CONTROVERSY about the one point
that he did kiss her, and after all this
is the most important thing. 1t is
not certain Just what was the matter
with this kiss-whether it was not
up to the standard or whether there
may not be something peculiar about
a tailors kiss. But it is certain that
the lady didn't loose much time in
telling her husband about it, and the
husband lost no time in horse-whip-
ping the tailor for doing just what he
had doubtless himself done thous
and times. In this way the matter
became the property of the public
for the tailor proceeded against the
husband for assault. Such course is
as strange as it is unusual, and if
