THE WIFE.

We go out to Gods acre, and we
read upon the tombstones Of the poor
wives, who sleep quietly beneath the
daisies, with their hands folded upon
their breasts, Of their virtues, and
we think that some of the inscrip-
tions should read, Died of over
work. If life is a battle to a man, it
Is moro to a woman. Woman does
not draw her inspiration from the
same source as man. Three things
she needs and must have: FIRST. your
society and companionship; second,
your confidence;and third. your loYe.
She doesn t want to wait until she
is dead to read her virtues on her
tombstone She wants her husband
to tell her how much he loves her.
There are couples, happy in the eyes
of society, who in the home are moth
ing to each other. There are cou-
tJICS " IO IL oOSlCpN OlCNSOuI OFCl
with courtesies to each other, but
who in their own homes are as stolid
as oysters. In society the husband
viii almost break his neck to pick
up her handkerchief if it falls, and at
home will allow her to carry the coal
bod, We sometimes marvel at the
coolness with which a man asks
tenderiy-reared maiden to leave her
luxurious home to cast her lot tn
him upon the untried sea of matri-
mony, and | marvel at the faith of
the maiden who accepts the offer,
saying: Whittier thou goest | will
go, and where thou lodgest | will
lodge; thy people shall be my people
and thy God my God. Grave ooli-
cations grow out of this love and sac
rifce and man S duty next to glori-
flying his Creator is certainly to live
for woman S happiness.

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.


Those are just the words; four in
number, and refer directly to the
grumbling, growing, fault-fnding
mischi If makers. People who never
mind their own business are liked
the street whiffet dogs, that are al
ways barking, biting, nipping and
naboing somebody. Can we presume
the great Creator made you especial
ly to superintend His universe, and
to be eterrally prying, meddling and
seeking TO control and direct every
body's affairs.
1t is enough to make one indig-
nant TO see what pans some people
90 to to ferret out the plans OF 9th
ers, and start bit of gossip. They
leave their own gardens to grow full
of weeds, while they are trying to
mold up before everybody the few
they pull from their neighbors. O.,
how they toll to rob these of their
reputation, their peace, their pros
perlty and pleasure. They do every
thing but mind their own business.
They never discern their own faults
and follies. By the time the whole
town is criticized, and the judgment
pronounced, they've not a moment
left to do more than congratulate
themselves on their own good works
People who don't mind their own
business, bring more misery into
families, societies, and churches than
anything else. They turn the pleas
ant, peaceful stream Or good will in
TO loathsOme pool; they intrude on
ground where angels would even
fear to tread. Now, ninding ones
own business is the very best RENE
dy for the itching ears that are never
satisfied with hearing, and the busy
tongue that hurreS to speak cruel
words. Winding your own business
will turn your attention to self, ana
you will forget to watch SO closely
the shortcomings of others; it viii
make peaceful homes, happy neigh
bOrs, and quiet consclences; and you
will be able to realize and more fully
comprehend the truth spoken in holy
writ, Blessed are the PeacemakerS.
