Why some Women Grow Old.

One reason why the average wo-
man wears out, grow old and plain
before her husband, is that, through
a mistaken idea of duty, she lays
out for herself at the beginning Of
her married life a scheme or plan
of duty and employment for time,
every hour filled with work, with
rare and short periods of relaxa-
ton.
This she follows religiously for
years, feeling that she has done her
duty, because every household event
occurs regularly and on time, while
she soon becomes merely a machine,
a thing without life of itself or vo-
lition. She settles into her rut and
goes round and round on the same
track everlastingly.
Can any woman keep brightness,
originality of thought and speech,
or even mere prettiness with such
life, and without those things how
can she keep her husband and grow
ing children full of loving adm.ra-
ton. which is the strongest chain
by which she can bind them TO
her? How bright and jolly the
neighbor's wife seems when she
calls. In nine cases out of ten it
is because the surroundings and
talk of your home are variety to
her and rouse her to originality
and brightness of speech. In her
own rut she may be as dull as
dishwater.

A Thought For The Boys.

l.
We do not see much written b
bout poor, wild. reckless boys, who
deserve the sympathy, tears and
prayers of every Christian woman
and man. There is period in the
life of a boy when, II he makes
mistake, people or some classes,
at least, are apt to magnify the
same, and having the tact of being
more critical than correct, the mat.
ter is announced to all the world,
or to that portion in which the
culprit dwells. That most angelic
christian grace, Charity, falls TO
come to the trembling balance and
weigh the burden upon the side of
mercy, and so the boy is hooted
and reviled as he goes slipping
down the ladder rung by rung," till
he is eventually lost to love and
trust. There is not good chris
tian woman ON earth who cannot
do good if she will only speak kind
ly and encouragingly to those wild
boys and try to draw them inlo
something that is good and noble,
Make them realize that they have
one true and sympathetic friend At
least; one that will assist and de-
fend in their darkest hours Select
some wild boy, give him good adj
vice, lend MIN good books, arouse
the spirit of true manhood and try
to impress upon his mind that
1T is not all of life to live,
Nor all of death to die"
The well-informed woman may
be known not so much by
what she tells you. as by what she
does not tell you; for she is the
last to take pleasure in mere gos-
sip, OF to make vulgar allusion TO
the appearance, dress or personal
habits of her friends and neigh
bors.
Let there be refinement and Gull
ture in every thought you utter
Never speak in harsh, loud tones.
but cultivate clear, sweet voice;
and never laugh when trying 10
talk.
