thero is but littlo manual labor, ou

who work harder than coiuo who

When love aud affection aro ban
ished from Lomo lifo loses its great
est charm. Soino Lomus aro full of
lova and sunlights and ail ugliness
and gloom for tho ones for whom
they live. To constitute a truly
happy borne, thoro should bo pretty
little porsonal adornments ou tha
part of tho wifo, who thereby snows
a desiro to hor husband, and to add
to tho general attractions of bor
homo. A pleasant word on bor part
wbon tbe oror-woikod man comos
Lome, often eats away tho raw edge
of aomo troublo on his mind, aud
draws oat a oorrosponing desire to
bo both agreeable and respectful,
whioh cbaraotoristios are always
accompanied by affection. What is
true of manners is truo of dross also.
Rudoness, roughness and im
patience are soon followed by inso
lonoo, and when sweet temper gires
away to anger and discord, ine
borne oirole is no longor attractive.
A disrespectful manner on the aide
