Selecting q Wife.

The selection of lifetime companion
is so important that man needs more
divine guidance at such time in this
life than in almost any other step in
life.
By the fate of Job, whose wife cosxed
him to swear; by the fate of Ahab, whose
wife induced him to steal; by the fate of
John Wesley, whose wife was a jealous
fool; by the fate of Macbeth, whose wife
pushed him into massacre; by the fate
of Frederick Robinson, whose wife
mocked his distresses while writhing On
the floor in spinal disease; by the fate of
James Ferguson, the philosopher, whose
wife ertered the room while he was lee
turing, and willfully upset his astronomi-
cal apparatus, so that he turned to the
audience and said: Ladies and gentle
men, I have the misfortune to be mar
ried to this woman; by the fate, of Bull
wer, the novelist, whose wife's temper
was 80 incompatible he furnished her 8
beautiful house near London, and with
drew from her company, leaving her
with the one dozen dogs whom she en-
tertained as pets; by the fate of John
Milton, who married termagant after
he was blind, and when someone called
her rose. the poet said /: II am no judge
of colors, and it may be so, for I feel the
thorns daily" by the fate of an Eng
lishman, whose wife was so determined
to dance on his grave that he was buried
in the sea; by the fate of the village
minister whom I knew whose wife threw
a cup of hot tea across the table because
they differed in sentiment-by all these
scenes of disquietude and domestic ca
lamity, ne implore you to be cautious
and prayerful before you enter upon the
conpubial state which decides whether a
man shall have two heavens or two hells,
heaven here and heaven forever, or q
hell now and hell hereafter.
By the bliss Of Pliny, whose wife, when
her husband was pleading in Court, had
messengers coming and going to inform
her what impression he was making; by
the joy of Grotrius, whose wife delivered
him from prison under the pretence of
having books carried out lest they be in
furious to bis health; she sending out
her husband unobserved in one of the
book cases; by the good fortune of Ro.

and composing for her husband while
Secretary of the Interior-talented, hero.
ic, wonderful Madame Roland by the
happiness of many man who, has made
intelligent choice of one capable of be-.
ing prime counsellor and companion, in
brightness and in grief, pray to Almighty
God morning, noon and night that at the
right time and in the right way he will
send you good, honest, loving, sympa-
thetic wife; or if she is not sent to you,
that you may be sent to her. Adams

you will overtake yours when you are

to witness daily the heartbreaking scenes
of utter misery and bitter pain, who are
not only spending our last savings, but
also straining heart and brain in efforts
to save the lives of our countrymen, We
dare not contemplate the consequences
should help fail us. This is time when
one looks for help, not only to ones coun-
trymen-to ones nearest neighbors or
every day frieuds-but far beyond the
precincts of country, nation, name. To
the vast brotherhood of men, to all who
have hearts to pity and hands to help, we
appeal for assistance against the horrors of
hunger.

Many individuals, communicates in
the church are in mental darkness as to
the origin of certain forms in common
use. Rev. Weller, assisted by Sisters
Catherine and Constance, of the order
of "Sisters of the Nativity" have
taught in the church daily, inviting
investigation and queries.
Many things that belong to system
eighteen hundred years old solid, exact,
and embodying spirituality that main
tains itself from century to century in
undertaking obedience to the commands
of the divine founder, are misunder-
stood and misconstrued by many who
desire intelligent and reasonable proofs
of the divinity of the church, to this
class of questioners the teaching of the
mission have been inestimable worth
The meetings have created a revival of
quality, more to be desired than a
revival of quantity in the church.
Monday and Tuesday the meetings
were held in Port Edwards Tuesday

here to Port Edwards to be present at
