Ioncs heard good wife congratulate
herself graFey that, in thirty years of
welded happiness, she had never ap-
peared al the breakfast-tacie with
dishevelled hair or without collar.

evidence of the prevalence of the COZ =
trary custom. The orderly eqitfure
and neat neck-rig may stand as
types of the daily endeavor to rem in
pleasing in eyes To which we were once
fair. Live of the right sort may nor

commou placeness and dowGyism, but
these do wear off the nap. .4
Beyond comparison, the band that

The wife can make no graver mistake
compatible with true love for her hus-
band than reputation of the dsty Of
collaborating. The fault passes be
yond the line OF plumbers into the rank
of positive sins. The desire of every
man to leave representative OF himsel
upon the earth, when he lies down to
sleep with his fathers, is deeply
grounded in noble natures. The
father labors in the field of the world
with the strength of as many men as
there are hostages to fortune in the
home nest. The hope of maintaining
children in comfort, bringing them up
IN responsibility and honor, and pro
vidlng against possible want straDgles
avarice, glorifies ambition. The words
wife and mother" go as naturally to-
gether as 'home and heaven"
1t argues fatu'us and intolerable con-
celt when young wife deliberately
assumes that she will be able in youth,
middle, and old age TO be so sufficient
to her husband in every phase ct his
manv-sided nature as to compensate
for the loss of what Ihe Lord of nature
has declared is necessity OF his being.
The pair are ag! eed not TO undertake
the care and responsibility of offspring,
we are generally told in such cases.
Then the wife should lift to her
shoulders the heavier burden of keep
ing herself eternally fair and spIightly;
of filling her spouse's heart aud home
with mirlh aid music; as time goes
on, OF supplying the elements OF pride
full love and hope he might have had

Childlessness is an evil. The dread
of the aphorism is too often
not suspected until the sum mer of
advent Is past. the harvest-time OF
education is ended, and the barren
stocks stand uncomely and uncared-fo for
in desolate winter. The making Of
d true home is really our peculiar and
inalienable right, right which no man
can take from us; for a man can no
more make home than a drone can
make a hive" writes Frances Power
Cobbe.
A hive, crammed with eold-and- sill
yer honey; a spick- and-span hive. with
all the modern Improvements, with no
litter of Lar vac, no tracks of small feet
on the waxen cells, no jocund comings
aud goings; hive silent as tomb

superannuated bees alternating with
no hope OF spring-tirne; are We to &C
