A Home-Levins Husband.

That woman is wise who chooses for
her partner in life a man who desires TO
find his home place Of rest. II Is the
man with many interests. with engross-
ing occupations, with plenty Of people to
fight, with struggle to maintain against
the world, who is really the domestic
man in the wifc's sense; who enjoys
home, who reishes prattle, who feels in
the home circle, where nobody is above
him and nobody unsympathetie with
him, as II he were In haven OF ease and
reparation.
The drawback Of home life, its con.
tanned possibilities Of insipidity, same
ness and consequent weariness, Is never
present TO such man. He no more
tires OF his wife than of his own happier
moods. He is no more bored withlhomt
than with sleep. He in no more plagued
with his children than with his own
lighter thoughts. All the monotony
and weariness OF life he encounters out
side.
II is the pleasure-loving man, the mer'
ry companion, who requires constant ex'
element, that hnds home life unendur.
able. He soon grows weary OF 1t, and
considers everything so very tame and SC
like very fiat beer that it is impossible
for him not only to be happy, but TO feel
that he is less unhappy there than els
where. Saturday Reriew.

tation from the Geographical Society
Yesterday morning at the Palace Hotel.
A speech Of welcome was made by Selim

much changed during the past twenty.
five years. A policy of improv ement
had begun about thirty years ago, and
since that time the people had adopted
many European customs. which had
greatly benefited them as a nation. He
praised our people very highly on one
ground-that they were courteous and
ready to give foreigners any necessary
Information.
l.. L. Robinson and G. NJ. Grant then
engaged the Prince in an interesting con
versation on various topics, especially
mining, in which he ia much interested.
He said that he had intended to visi
Dutch Flat, but was disappointed b,
learning that on account Of an injunction
against the miners the mines were shu
down. Prince Mares and his suit vii
leave the city this afternoon or to.mor
row morning for Virginia, New, wher
they will make short visit to Tia
mines, Mr.. Robinson having provide'
them with letters of introduction to
