A Model Wife.

What young man could select his
helpmate from among the butterflies Of
fashion who dutter their gaudy wings
under the midnight gas, or fill our
streets to be gazed at and to gaze? Do
not infer from this that to be true
woman she must necessarily be plain,
quiet listle body. who doesn't dance.
doesn't care for society, 0nly darns your
stockings, and keeps your dressing
gown and your slippers ready for you,
and always looks perfectly we'll dressed
in gray merino frock, with white linen
collar and cuffs and blue ribbon bow,
as in novels. No, not bv any means.
You may adore beauty; your wife may
be beautiful a queenlv woman, full of
gracious sweetness: one who enjoys her
life and lives it. She may dance too,
and if she does it well, no one should
delight more in helping her than you.
She may enjoy society, and know how
to hold her own in it, and be perfect
mistress of the s'savoir faire," but she
mrst not let society claim all her duty.
AS for her intellectual requirements
you should ind In her companion and
friend, as we'll as wife; and as for her
heart and affection. she must be a true
woman. In short, your wife must not
be too good for human natures dailv
food, but she should be as different
from the girl of the period as it Is pos
sible.

Life Is What We Make It.

The great desire of mankind in gen
eral is to prosper and become rich.
Some 60 at life as though they thought
people should be thankful for their
presence. Their seeming Importance
generally terminates in a downfall at an
early period, and they find their level in
disappointed existence. Others man
fully persevere, taking hold of things
continually as they appear to block up
the way Of progress understandingly,
and finally come out often ahead of
their most sanguine expectations. Life
is made up Of ''ups and downs" and the
sooner we learn to realize the fact that
to enrich ourselves we must not trample
on the rights given us, but must store
up every faculty and power Of mind
aud body to be used judiclously in work
ing out the wealth that is in store for
us, the more certain our success. 1t
we maltreat associates, or strive to gain
our ends by dishonorable means, we
must sooner or later expect to be re-
warded accordingly Truly, life is in
great measure what we make it.
There are some things we ruay win
with violence: others, and these are far
more precious, can only become ours by
moderation, patience, cheerfulness and
self restraint. Some persons thitk to
make their way through the difficulties
of life as Hannibal is said to have done
across the Alps, by pouring vinegar
upon them--a very unlikely process, in
deed. There is a better. way-the tax,
ing of things by their smooth handles;
thus they may yield us their aid, if not
their secret to enrich us, and we shall
be better and wiser, if not also stronger
and richer men.

A Queer Joke.

They tell a. story, in London, Of a
parrot-or two parrots rather, a gray
and a green one-bel0nging to man
who lived just opposite the prison. This
man had a wonderful power of training
birds. and became famous throughout
London. He had taught his green
parrot to speak whenever a knock was
heard at the street door; but when the
bell of the same door rang he had
taught the gray parrot to answer. The
house has one Of those projecting
porches that prevents the second story
from being seen from the pavement.
One day person knocked.
''Who is there!'' asked the green
parrot.
1.-THE man with leather was the
reply.
''All right" the bird answered. and
then became silent.
After waiting for some time, and not
finding the door opened, the man again
knocked.
who's there!' cried the man outside.
"It's 1.-The man with the leather.
Why don't you open the door?''
''AlI right" repeated the parrot,
which 50 upset the man that he furi.
ously rang the bell.
go to the gatel" shouted new
voice. which proceeded from the gray
parrot.
ITO the gatey" repeated the man,
seeing no gate-''wtlat gateY'
..Newgatel Nowgateln responded the
gray parrot.
(Newgate is the name Of prison in
London.
The porter was enraged, but stepping
across the street the better to answer
what he supposed to be the housemaids.
he saw that he had been tWitted and
teased by q couple Of parrots.

THERE'S NJ TIME LIKE TIE PRESENT

Theirs no time like the pres emit;
To-morrow's far away,
Anc what our hands may find to do
CID bids Us do to-day.
Be ready in the golden Now
To do helpful deed.
And never let the chance go by
To meet q sisters need.
Don't wait until another time
For she who waits may lose
The grandest chance Of all her life;
It is not ours to choose.
The opportunities to do;
They come at Gods behest.
And she who never squanders one
liz she who lives the best.

THE DEY LIS worn, 1889.

The devil remarked 81 am ont Of sorts.
And my spirits Internally low.
And my MEDICAL 1end prescribes q change
So a-wandering willgo."
He strolled right up to this cheerful earth.
With jaunty air and free.
And emerged alongside Of an Irish car
Which was manned by the R. I. G.
His horns he dotted, and locked his tail,
And hid his symmetrical frame
In the garb Of q damaged emerRencyman,
And he walked little lame.
They welcomed their mate and they took him up,
And promised him sport and pay;
They gave him drink from an Irish jar,
And with him they drove away.
Hesaw cottage stormed and sacked
BY gang of II en- with picks,
Who yelled as they broke the tenants head.
And smashed his scanty sticks.
He saw the cottage wrapped in flames
By the same courageous crew.
While Resident Magistrate laughed aloud
(And the devil laughed hugely, too}.
He saw Catholic tried for his life
Bv packed and Protestant jury,
Vhum Pether the Packer urged to kill
With stimulated fury.
And Pether smiled as he said (aside,)
I'm religious bias my trust is"
Ard the Devil smiled, too, for he very we'll knew
Religion would strangle Justice.
He saw certain Minister.
Whose time was wholly spent
In wrestling laws to serve one class-
Extorhoners of rent.
And the Devil misquoted Scripture
fAs he's often done before),
"Bessed," said he. ARE those who grind
The faces of the poor
But the DEVILS health still lang uished- .
He was weary aud irale.
''The change" said he, lis nothing much
from the scene on my own estate.
10 he silently dropped a birthstone tear.
Which Il ade the Minister stare;
And back he hied to his own treslde,
To seek for comfort there.
