No companion so valuable and safe can a man have as a discreet and godly wife. It is her province and care to make her home neat and attractive in appearance ; genial, sweet and healthy in atmosphere the place to which her husband shall turn with glad and longing heart. It is her aim to be in person and manner so engaging, inspirits so fresh, in affection so genuine and tiue, in thoughts so elevated and pure, that he shall seek her companionship with never filling zest and joy. And it is by such companionhsip that a sweet and refined woman molds and fashions her husband to a grace and worth to Mm attainable in no other Her d OAAoS tC S81150 way. and imcenscion! j elevates, upon, his esthetic nature.

Then turning to his comradeshe said, Form a circle round him and 1 will swear at him. The circle was foYmed, and the soldier poured forth such torrents of blasphemy that Mr, Knill shuddered and shed tears, Seeing his agitation, the other soldiers interfered and said: Let him go !
