Said Andrew to himself, as he turned his eyes from the clouded face of Mts. Lee, and sat down, with knitted brows, and a u:00- 4 aspect. Nut a word was spoken by - •ei:her.-- 311 s. Lee was getting supper, and she moved about with a weary step. "Come," she said at last, with a side glance at her husband. There was invitation in the wrrd only, none in the totem of Mrs. Lee. • Andrew arose and went to the table.— lie was tempted to speak au angry word, but controlled himself, and kept silence. lie could find no fault with the chop, nor the sweet hove-made t.tead; nor the fragrant tea. .They would have cheered his inwarctruan, if there had only been a gleam or sunshine on the face of his wife. He noticed that she did nut eat. E. A. tOSE3 "Are you not well, Mary ?" The words were on his lips, but he did ,not niter them, for the face of his wife' -looked so repellant,' that he feared an irritating re ply. And so, in moody silence, the twain kat together, until Andrew had fin ished his supper, As he pushed his chair. buck, his wife arose; and comusene ed clearing off the table. "This is 'purgatory!" said Lee to him self, as he commenced walking the floor of their'little breakfast, room, with his hands thrust desperately away down in his trousers' pockets, and his chin almost touching his• breast. • . After removing all the dishes, and taking them into the kitchen, _Mrs: Lee spread a green cover an the table, and placing a freshly trimmed lamp thereon, went out, and shut the door 'after •her, leaving her husband alone with ' his •• un pleasant feelings, He took a long, deep wreath as he did so, paused in his walk, stood still for a few =Meats, and then drawing a r aper from his pocket, . sat down by the table, opened the sheet and commenced reading.. Singularly enough the words on which his eyes rested were, "Praise your wife." They rather tended tt, increase the-disturbance of mind front which he was suffering. "I should like to find some occasion for praising Mine.' How quickly •his thoughts - expressed that-ill-natured sen timent. But his eyes were on the page before him, and he read on. "Praise your - wife, man ; for pity's sakp., give her a little enoottragement; it wout hurt, her." Andrew Lee raised his eyes from the paper, and muttered, "Oh, yes. 'That's all very : Praise is cheap enough, p 4 t raise her for, what?' Nor being sullen; and =king your houie the most disagreeable place in the world?" His eyes fell again to the paper'. - - "She has made your home oomfortable, Vet:lag:a:to. Ai .
