Advice to the Married.

At Ebonezer African Methodist Episcopal Church, Baltimore, Md., Rev. Dr. Johnson, Secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Board of Education, preached. Bishop Gaines announced that Dr. Johnson would deliver a lecture on "When to Marry, How to Marry and How to Keep Married.” “Thelast part of the subject,” said the bishop, "is one to consider well. Some men are so mean and some women are so indifferent that it makes matters bad. It is partly the fault of both that so many people do not succeed in living happily after marriage. You women make yourselves look just too sweet before you capture the man of your choice, and when you get him, instead of keeping yourselves up to the standard of good looks, you neglect it. I tell you that I want my wife to look just as sweet to-day as she did when I fell in love with her." /
