I am a ken in and.: .ould afford The world is full of " advice -to wives," and even that cheap commodity by courtesy addresSed " to married people," is mostly ohe-sided and intendecl for the ears of 'the weaker sex only. We can scarcely pick up a paper without reading the. oft -reiterated instructions to "always meet him with a smile (whatever may be his delinqueucies), to be, always neatlyi dressed." (what- ever work on hand), to "never cora.- plain " o him (whatever the weight of your cares), and, all the rest of it which everybody knows so well. For the sake of a more evenly -bal- anced state of things, let us administer a little of the same dose to the other side of the house, on the old principle that "what is sauce for the goose is satice for the c,,fander." Husbands &tad always appear be- fore their wives ill's neat and. becomiug attire. Remember that is one of your chief attractions during courtship. A man is not at all beautiful ea dishabile, mallow eau you expect to retain a woman's love if you suddenly drop all the blandishments that won it? Hus- bands, be neat.Never come to break- fast with hair looking " like a fig tree shaken by a mighty wind," or soiled collar and necktie all awry. Never lounge about at a late hour in the ev013.- lug in stocking feet, sans coat and vest, and with slouch suspenders. Had she chanced to see you thus in courting days, it would have taken a vast amount of romance out of her, depend upon it. Suppose your circumatauces in life are such that you must .assist in. doing the "morning chores," then steal to your room before she has seen you, and there change the working -coat for the dress- ing -gown, polish your boots, and. make yourself presentable, that no suggestion of the barn -yard. may accompany you to the breakfast -table. The look of fond regard that will surely greet you from behind the fragrant coffee-pot will be a sufficient reward. • Never wear a clouded or angry coun- tenance in the ,presen.ce of . your wife. No matter what the cares and annoy - rices of the day have been, Itefore her you should be all sunshine. Thus yana will make her happy and forget your own troubles. In her own sphere she has petty vexations to bear that would break the heart of any man alive. Don't add the burden of yours too. If the children are noisy and peevish, quiet and amuse them with as much tact as possible, in Order that you dis- turb not their mother, who, in the evening, sheuld find that rest and tran- quility- that will prepare her for the du- ties of another day. Above all, allow no impatient word to arise to your lips sh, ould your wife object to your spend- ing money on such selfish gratifications as expensive brandies and choice ci- gars, while she is economising in many little ways. Though you may think her ma the wrong, you had better be ruled in ?" 1878 1\11 1878 SURPRISING BARGAINS IN ALL KINDS OF JD R.= C+ OCDS —AT -- THOMAS KIDD'S SEAFORTH. 3 ALL GOODS ARE The Young Lady and. the Billy Goat. 1878.

A lot of young ladies, bent on fun and mischief, purchased a joint interest in and got a clear title to a sturdy old goat, which, for various reasons, they wished. to change its residence from their neigh- borhood. Then -they got up a goat raffle, with the condition that the Win- ner of the goat should ride him home. Their gentlemen .friends all joined in the spirit of the fun. and Speculation, and went in liv,ely for chances. The ladies also took a few chances slyly. The list was soon filled, and. the time and place for the great raffle, was set. There was a jolly crowd. The goat for .sacrifice was tied to a fence outside -while his doom hung over him. The blind goddess who shakes the dice -box turned the tide of fortune in favor of one of the young ladies who got up the scheme and was most interested in the change of the goat's residence. She was shocked. She had not drawn an elephant, but a pestiferous billy goat— just as bad. But the die was cast, and. she had to submit—yet not to the terms. She flatly refused. to ride the goat home, as per specification.

Senator Mitchell -was naturally much vexed at his daughter's indiscretion; and is said to have sternly given her the: alternative of a home or a husband, and that the young wife, after `some tears,' prudently chose the former.
