A friend Of mine, who is a married man,
said 70 me the other day: II would ad-
wise any young man to remain single until
he is in the possession OF O salary OF at
least $25 o week. 1t is is almost impossi-
BILE to keep house on less. House rent,
fuel and other essentials come high, and a
young man who only earns SIS or $40 a
week must necessarily run behind. He
can live quite comfortably on SIS a week
if he is single, but let him attempt to sup
port a wife, and perhaps . family, on this
sum, AMI he will see where the ends will
meet"
My friend is either a spendthIift him
self or he has an extravsgant wife. If he
expects every young mar to wait until he
receives $25 a week before he marries, he
will soon SEQ the population of the world
dwiudle down to the same number it con-
tanned before Adam and Eve began their
existence. Married people can live and do
live comfortably OF SIS q week, and some
times less. In many instances \ man never
begins 20 amount to anything until ne Is
married and has q wife to help hin over
tee sloughs or dependency. 1t is often
A., ,,1,,va,,~,aA f.,nalifu anA anarnu
of q wife that enables q man to acquire
wealth.
The very great majority Of tho wealthy
men of the nation married while they
were poor, and il asked they will say that
their riches must be credited as much TO
their wives as themselves. II my friend
thinks it essential that a married couple
should have three or four servants, attend
the opera six times q week, ride in car
riages, etc, then his advice is good, only a
young msn should hGya more than S2o q
week. The bappiest families are not
always the wealthiest, and a young man,
If he can get q good wife land there are
plenty Of them), had better get her, eve
if be is receiving less than the stipulated
sum Of my married economist.
The past week wasrather quiet in Wheel.
ing social circles, although several events
OF prominence are recorded on the list of
past jays. The weather, was beautiful
daring the week and it had the effect of
hurrylrg out the ladies in full force, as
sisted by several spring openings Of miilin-
cry.
1t was expected that the Wheeling club
would have its apartments ready to give
the opening hop last Friday evening, but
delays in some Of the furnishings prevent.
ed that and next Friday evening will prob
ably be the date. Society is looking for
ward to this affair with many p~leasurable
anticipations, ard there is 10 fear OF a
disappointment. It will undoubtedly be
the event of the season.
The following advice to husbands il as
true as gospel: Love and appreciation
are to a WOMAN what dew and sunshine
are 10 a flower. They freshen and brighten
her whole life. They make her strong
hearted and keen sighted in everything Of
fecting the welfare Of her home. They
make her to cherish her husband when the
cares of life press heavily upon him, and
to be q very providence to her children.
To knowth her husband loves her and is
proud OF her and believes in her; that even
Ger faults are looked upon with tender
ness; that her face, to Il at least, is the
fairest in all the land; that the beaIt which
TO her is the greatest and noblest, holds
her sacred in its most innermOst recesses
above all other women gives her a strength
end courage, and energy and sweetness,
and vivacity which all tbs wealth of the
world could not bestow. Let a woman's
life be pervade3 with such an influence,
and her heart aud mind will never grow
old, bat Will blossom and sweeten and
brighten in perpetual youth.
Society is waiting very anxiously for
several much but quietly-talked-ot we'd
dings and fully expect to see them occnr
before May flowers bloom.
The wild flowers are commencing to
peep ont under the refreshing and invig-
Grating effect of these April showers aud
Wild flower parties will soon be in season.
