Married Life. The following beautiful and true senti ments are from the pen of Frederika Bre mer Deceive not one another in small things nor in great. One little single he has, be fore now, disturbed a whole married life. A small cause has often great consequen ces. Fold not the arms together and sit idle. ‘Laziness is the devil’s cushion.’ Do not run much from home. One’s own health is of more worth than gold. Nany a marriage, my friends, begins like the rosy morning, and then falls away like a snow wreath. And why, my friends, because the married pair neglect to be as well pleasing to each other after marriage as before. Endeavor always, my children, to please one another; but at the same time keep God in your thoughts. Lavish not all your love on to-day, for remember that marriage has its tomorrow likewise, and its day after to-morrow too. ‘Share, as one may say, fuel for the winter.’ Consider, my daughters, what the word wife expresses. The married woman is her husband's domestic faith; in her hand he must be able to confide Lth and fam ily ; be able to entrust her the key of his heart, as well as the key of his eating-room. His honor and his home are under her keeping ; his well being is in her hand— Think of this! And you, sons, be faithful husbands, and good fathers of families. Act so that your wives shall esteem and love you.
