word wife is a weaver, and farmers wife,
though not now compelled to throw the
shuttle, should be worker; but in her
work she should have the sympathy of her
husband, and it is his bounded duty to see
that her ambition does not lead her to over
work The unfeeling wretch who, standing
at the coffin of his wife, said, II would
rather have lost my best COW" would very
likely not have been widower if he had
been as careful of his wife as of his COW.
He certainly did not deserve another wife,
though he is said to have secured one in
three months.
If the position of farmers wife invol-
yes peculiar labors and responsibilities, as
intimated, then she is entitled also to pc
culiar consideration on the part of her
husband. If she is emphatically partner
in his business, she should be consulted in
all business matters, and her advice treated
with all proper respect. The days have
gone by when woman has no rights in the
conduct of business which husband is
bound to respect There is none so unset
fish, and at the same time so interested a
counselor for any man as his wife, and we
are persuaded that those business men are
most successful who con6de their affairs to
their wives and ask their advice. If this
is the case in complicated mercantile and
manufacturing business, with which women
are not expected to be familiar, much more
is it true in farming, with which, in some
of its branches at least, the wife has much
to do. When we find that young farmer
has secured wife, and treats her as part
ner in his business, we feel far more conf
dence in his success than when he is backed
up by rich father or large capital, and we
are confident that many Of the mistakes
which we have known farmers to make
would have been avoided if they had taken
their wives into their counsels. There is
no henpecking in this; it is the part of
wisdom, and whatever is wisdom's part is
true manhood.

In the little village of Mount Pleasant,
in the potteries in Stafordshire, England,
is to be found child whose extraordinary
growth excites great wonder. Little Alice,
as she is humorously called, is but 4 years
of age, yet turns the scale at $50 pounds
the circumference of her waist being no
less than 5 feet, while her height is 4 feet,
SO that literally she is broader than she is
long. She is bright, intelligent, and re-
markably pretty, her head being crowned
with a mass of golden hair. Her size does
not interfere in the least with her activity,
as she may often be seen playing with the
other children of the village or wandering
in their company through the country lanes.
Her appetite is enormous.

THE WAY OF THE WORLD.
BY ELLA WHEELER.

BY ELLA WHEELER.
Laugh, and the world laughs with you,
Weep, and you weep all alone,
For the brave old earth must borrow its mirth
1t has trouble enough of its own.
Sing and the hills will answer,
Sigh it is lost on the air;
The echoes rebound to joyful sound
And shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice and men will seek you,
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of your pleasure,
But they do not want your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many,
Be sad, and you lose them all;
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink lifes gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded,
Fast and the world goes by,
Forget and forgive-it helps you to live,
But no man can help you to die
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But, one by one, We must all march on
Through the narrow aisle of pain.
