10 be right Hence, men who consult
with their wives, often count them

ness, There arn many reasons for this.
|. II enables hcr TO know how N
regulate family expenses. Many men
have been utterly ruined because Of tho
mistaken impression Of their wives as
To their business Tho supposition was
encouraged that the husband was pros
porous and could afford o certain range
Of outlay aud the wiio felt entirely
justified In making H. In point Of
fact, he was not able 10 afford II. and
weakly concealed tho real facts from
the wife. Thus, she lnnoccntly con-
iributcd to his downfall, when. hnd she
known the truth, she would have aided
him TO curtail expense. and so succeed
In business. II Il rarely the case that
women are rccklessly oStrayagant. On
the contrary, they are apt TO bc con-
seryatiyo and saving whero that Is
needed.
q The wife Is deeply concerned In the
success OF her husband. Her happiness
and welfare depend upon Il. In such
n case she evidently can cooperate. II
she intelligently understands his situa-
ton. Men depend very largely for
their success In life on the home innu-
cnce. II cheers and sustains In the
hard struggle with difficulty, or II de-
presses and dscourages. And when
the wife knows nothing. but only sees
anxiety and care, without knowing the
reason. she Is apt TO partnkc OF the arx-
iety, without knowing just how 10 re-
licve It. Home Is where the struggling
business man must get his inspiration
and courage. And the wife can only
intelligently impart Il when she knows
Just what the demand Is.
2. The uncertainty OF life and the lla-
bility to accident are special reasons
why The wiio should know OF the hus-
band affairs. IL may be that she will
be compelled TO suddenly care for her
self, and out Of his property or bus ness,
find an income. II she knows moth
ing. this Is nearly impossible. With
such knowledge, she Is prepared for
emergencies.
Thus there are many aud cogent rea-
sons why the wife should be a conii-
dante In her husbands business. II
seems, indeed, strange that there should
be occasion 10 refer 10 this subject. by
marriage the two are one In all the es-
sentials Of interest. Their relations ara
close and sacred, and their interests aro
identical. But II Is, nevertheless, true
that men In mere thoughtlessness, fail
to confide 10 their wives knowledge
Of their business. The reason " nm i'm.
preston that they either care little OF
have no aptitude for business. But thi'
either II not the case or should not be
II they do not know, teach them, and
one way OF doing this Is 10 inform them
Of your business. BY 80 doing they
are being prepared for emergencies
that none can forcsec, and for which I
may be important 10 have them pre-
