Obscure Men Happiest in Wedlock.

No woman will love a man better for being renowned or prominent. Though he be the first among men, she will be prouder, not fonder; as is often the case, she will not even be proud. But give her love, appreciation, kindness, and there is no sacrifice she would not make for his content and comfort. The man who loves her well is her hero and king. No less a hero to her, though he is not to any other; no less a king, though his only kingdom is her heart and home. If is a man’s own fault if he is unhappy with his wife, in nine cases out of ten. It is a very exceptionable woman who will not be all she can to an attentive husband, and a very exceptionable one who will not be very disagreeable if she finds herself • willfully neglected. —Alabama Baptist. “I have sold hundreds, I might almost say thousands, of lots to Germans,” said a Buffalo real-estate man, “and have noted one significant fact: The moment a German takes to whisky he’s gone. He may swallow beer, ale, wine, and cider enough to float a ship, and yet pull through and pay for his lot, but old rye will lay him out. When a whisky-drinking German wants to deal with me I say ‘No’ with an emphasis that makes his teeth rattle.”
