How to Treat q wife.
(From Pacific Health Journal.)

First, get a wife; second, be patient.
You may have great trials and perplex-
tiles in your business, but do not there.
fore carry to your home a cloudy or con.
tracted brow. Your wife may have
trials, which, though of lees magnitude,
may be hard for her to bear.
A kind word, a tender look, will do won
ders in chasing from her brow all clouds
of gloom. To this we would add always
keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in the house. 1t is the best and
is sure to be needed sooner or later. Your
wife will then know that you really care
for her and wish to protect her health.

sent there to restore peace. Day after

back very much bruised, but still full
of cheerful enthusiasm. 1t was on one
of these occasions that Eva Booth 5

In speech Miss Booth is quiet and
gentle. She has way of listening to
you as if your remarks had great
weight. and of submitting hers as if
they were of no Importance in COM

when views conflict, and in important
matters she takes her stand in gentle
