I tell you thus expressly, because 'I wish tO "let no guilty ;man escape," and more men are guilt t?' than would care t� be found so'" by a. jury of their peers" --athough it does not trouble -them a particle that their wives knowit, and suffer for it. : , . ; i I happen to kilowatt about the mon- ey that buys your Christmas presents, sir, (which allow nee JO tell you, you don't deserve)n I happen to know all all about thole little petty ecdnornies your estimab1.4 wife. has pract ced for ;. the past year, with a' view to p chase it. I happen to know hew She saved a penny here, ,and- squeezed out two pence there, wher you would never ; have dreamed of doi a it. I happen to know the days wheni she even did her own wttihing (mord fool she I say I)., that she might have hat dollar, or half doll& toward it. happen to know haw she walked, ma]y a time, to save toward it the half dime, you probably wouldn't begrudge the railway com- pany. I happen to 1now how she turn- • ed, and twisted, and ontrived to make old do as well ae nei.tT, that she might pat that with the ince-easing amount of sacrifices. 1 happenito know how she laid awake nights, thinking, and plan- ning where she could eave the last it ceded. dollar for the pur hise. And. then, when the sum of all Ithese self -denials, money that she sbo141d have silent for herself is lovingly ex ended in a Chrie- tmas present for you and proudly and trustingly -brought fee your acceptance, that you, who boast yourself a man, should ungratefully, meanly; taunt her ' Of buying your presetits with your mon- ! ey l I tell you, sir that mOney is no more yours than if you never laid eyes or finger on it. It is jjust as -much hers as if she had. earned ijt- by hard work—h which she did --hard r work than yen ever think of doing. I'd like to see yea • pinch and scriinp tto get your wife a Christmas present, *or' any other present the way she does to get your presents. Id like to see yo -u even give up your cigars, your occasion& glass of -4 -what- ever you are in the habit of calliiitt for ---Le your games of billiards,andyour lodgeS, to get'your wife a preterit. She has not one of these indulgences, and denies herself even necessaries for your sake, and then you sneer and ac- cuse her , of getting you presents with "your money," and worst ef all, never dream bat that you are a full fledged man. But. if, your wife did or should get you a present witb, Darnley that yen give her, out and cut 7. though what would ever bring you to that astonish- ing state of generosi y I don't believe she will ever know from. eapetience. So long as she gets yclu something you -need, what if you do ive her thEl mon- ey, I say? If you are to inaguanineous would it hurt your mighty lordship, in your most vital part, your pocket, to al- l= her to delude herself aucl bthere with the belief that it really was her gift to you? It would be a.pleasant delusion—one that s e at least, ivonld enjoy; hut you can't it her • cheilsh it. You must needs renai id her, smilingly that "you might just as well have tot it yourself ; she got it with your mon- ey !" . And, uow, I Want to ask you; sir, even granting for a monied th t it is "our money." I waut to ask yo}u, sir, ", Whose, money should it be ?" Do you want your -wife to buy! your present with some other man's mpney ? - or, do you expect her, or want he to go to work and earnmoney from out Weirs for it ? 1 tell you, rey\Idear sir, there are more wives, to -day, who wish they coi id do that than you dream of in your - shame- ful indifference. There are more wo- men to -day, wives of well to do men, who envy the women who earn., inde- pendently, their li_velihoed, than ould like to be found lout. There are more Women, to -day, wlio would gladl imi-. tate the lawyers wife—was it net ?— who desperate for money that saould have been freely giVen,hung out the `sign, : '-Washing and Ironing done here,' with ' satisfactory results from her hueband; than would be brave enough to do it. There are more wives, to -day, .who long ' with intense longing„for a single dollar they eau call their own—a dollar in which their husbauds, sir, i want no ' "-part or paxcel," than there should he ' .for the credit of husbands! Wives who work for their husbands and the chil- , deem they have borne them, as only de- voted .wives can; and, many of them, women who knew what it was before , marriage, to have money to spend as they pleased, to whom it comes all the ' harder to be told, " You bought it with my money." I The man who will say "my money" to his wife and mother of his children, who does for him and them an most wives and mothers do, is too coniehapt- ible to live ; hut if he must live,lhe'd never get a Christmas present, not' any other presents, if he was my husband. .
