THE SUSPENDED BROTHER
Or, The Sign ol Digress,
TR MRS. E. M. SEYMOUR.
The formation of a new Lodge in the
town of M in one of cur Wes
tern State, wb quite sn important e
vent in i'8 increasing historj .The beau
tiful town had risen like migic on t lie
borders of the lake. Enlrrjjr ine rind in
dustry hid combined to beautify and a
dorn it, and a spirit of enterprise and a
hope of gain, had drawn together men
from all parts of the Union. Social
feelings were nourished; grangers met
here and becme fiiends, and learned
to love and trust each other. Such men in
such a place are the very ones to be
come devoted to Odd Fellowship, and
flourishing Lodge was atrevly there,
and row the formation of another was
quits an interesting event, at least to
Odd Fellows andOIJ Fellows' wives,
and formed a theme of conversation
in a email circle of ladies, who had
met for a social chit chat at the house
of Mrs. Hammond.
'No, no.' I shall never give my con
sent to my husband' becoming an Oid
Felhw,' excliimed Mr. Minor; it
would be signing the death warrant of
my happiness.'
iNor I, either,' responded Mrs.Jones
'although my husband is txtiernely
anxious to join them, and is cons'antly
repealing to me the benefits that would
result from it.'
liontfi s' responded Mrs. Mino
fneeiingly; 'what are a few dollars anil
cents compared with the happiness of a
whole family?'
Tne b,m ft s might consi-t in the
happiness of a whole family,' replied
Mrs. Dinton, who till now had been
a silent Istner.
Can the estrangement of a mail's of-
fec'ions from his fmily ad.! to then
happiness?' inqiired Mis, Minor.
Cdi) tho abue of that limo wbich
ought to be spent in the bokom of hti
f.tmily, adil to their happines?' coutinu
.ed Mrs Divis.
1 cannot bH eve that either of thcsi'
f fit cts would be the result of one's bp.
coming an Odd Fellow, but rather tlx
opposite,' said Mrs. Hammond. 'The
tendency of Old Followship is certain
ly to make men better teller hus
bands, better fithers, and better nicm.
bers of siciety.'
I am sure, ii fils in i's design, then,
replied Mrs. Minor, Tot it certainly ha
been the c.use of a great many qumrk
and murh unpleasant feeling between
hubinda a. id wives.'
'It is not Odd Fellowship but the op
position to 'H, that is the cause ofii.I
9m convinced,' said Mrs. Uanlon.
'Well, I think it is entirely urong foi
t man to have any secrets which he can
not reveal lo It is wife,-' purfurd Mi?.
Jones, 'and a woman ought not tamely
lo submit to tuch an ouirage of confidence.'
I woman who loves her husband,
if plied Mr. Danton, 'ought to hav.
,uflicienl roi'fvlence in him, to feel thi
ne would he guilty of nothing dishonor
ible either to himself or to his wife;inl
.s for their secrets, I imagine that i
hey weie revealed to us, we should h-
,urpri.ed at their I lllntess rather thai
neir imporiiricr.
Well, I do not believe in the neces
ty nr utility of secret societies',' s,iid
Mrs. Minor; 'surely their is ro necefs
y for guarded rooms and bolv.d door"
to dclbera'e on plans of benevolenn
and chaiily if there oVycl is a gnm)
.me, why not publish it fo the woild:
'Thfirown woiks )rsie tin m, tnd
nilent onostentatioui (letds of charil)
ind Jove, are their most thqufr.t de
fendeis,' said Mn. Danton.
'Well. I do, not believe in that be
levoTence which neglects one'i owi
'.mily to administer to other?,' saidMis,
l)ivi, 'and I sppak from sid experienr
My husband, f-r jrars, Ums hanlly
pr. nt an entire evening at home with
his family, on account rf'fhe hurry o
business yet since he has heroine Bn
0 Id Fellow, he minngrs to deva'e one
vening every wptk with them.'
'And 1 doubt not, Mis Dris, in s-
loing he belives I rmself accmpli.thing
mnre good for his family than ho could
in any other possible way ;' replied M s.
Dinton. 'Fonuue is a fickle goddess,
