A Woman Tells Husbands How They Can
Make Themselves Agreeable.


Praise your wife, man! For PHYS

home comfortable, your hearth bright.
your food agreeable. For PHYS sake,
tell her you thank her, if nothing more.
She doesn't expect it; it will make her
eyes open wider than they have for these
last ten years. But it will do her good.
for all that-and you, too. There are
many women to-day thirsting for a
word of praise-the language of en-
enlargement. Through summers heat

clean, labor has been performed to make
it so. You know that if you can take
from your drawer clean shirt when
ever you want it, somebody's fingers
have toiled. Every thing that pleases
the eye and the sense has been pro-
duced by work, thought, care and eff

appreciate these things, and feel graft

bestowed upon them in sickness and
health. Why don't they come out with
a hearty "why, how pleasant you make
things look. wife," or 81 am obliged to
you for taking so much pains?" They
thank the tailor for good fit; they
thank the man in the horse-car who
gives them a seat; they thank the lady
who moves along in the concert-room;

Sorrows and Tribulatisns Too Often the

The pale invalid does not mark fresh
proofs of emaciation morning after

but we wiil not have a fat Juliet at

sorrows of fat women still wait to be

they have been ridiculed sbundantly.

"A gentleman who was out hunting
the other night stumbled over the dead
body of a COW in the Little River
swamp. The COW had crumpled horns,
from one of which was dangling huge

that the COW had seen the snake coiled
and in the act of springing upon her,
and had accordingly hooked the rep

body so that the rattler was unable to
free himself. The cows horn killed
the RATHER, but the rattler's fangs
killed the COW. And yet tradition says
a rattlesnake's bite doesn't harm a

IN LOVE. BUT HER HEAD LEVEL.

It is matter of considerable aston
ishment among persons who are in
.clined to be careful, that others should
be so loose in their way of doing things.
Aletter of utmost importance, placed
carelessly in the pocket, may some
times find its way into the hands of
persons whom it was never intended to
reach In proof of this the following.
On account of the prominence OF the
parties names are, for the present, sup
pressed:
NEPHI, December 8. 1888.

this mornings mail. 1 am sorry you
did not send along some acid by which
L could have tested it, as l observe from
the box in which it was enclosed that
it was not purchased at the store of E.
]. STaner & Co.-whose reputation for
good goods and fair treatment of their
customers has reached further south
than Nephi, and is among the bits of
social gossip daily retailed in Goshen.
The chances are that, had you made
the purchase at SwANER's you would
have saved enough to buy dashboard
and perhaps a wringer. But this is
your first offense, and I'll forgive you,
for know it will be your last.
