A MARRIED HAN’S MUSINGS.

Woman's influence is, on the whole, elevating. She generally holds a fellow up ou payday, Never judge a man by the clothes he wears. Look at those be has to buy for his wife. No woman ever feels as though she could trust another who wears a last year’s hat. It is not good for man to be alone, but sometimes it’s very much pleasanter The man who wrote “Absence makes the heart grow fonder,” never returned at 2 a. m. and found his wife waiting for him at tlie head of the stairs. A girl isn’t an old maid until she begins to worry for fear she will never get married; a man isn’t an old bachelor until he begins to worry for fear he will. Anyway, Eve was unable to threaten to go home to her mother when Adam wouldn't put up the screen doors. It is not proper to judge a man by his tvife, either. Perhaps he couldn’t help it. Hardships are the kind that sail on the sea of matrimony. Almost every wife wants her husband to make her an allowance, while she refuses to make any allowances for him. After a girl has employed all her arts in landing a husband it I gratifies her to rea\l that she was I “led to the altar.’' While all men an* liars, there j are expeptions to the rule, and a i girl is generally willing to take an I exception. ' My wife says she knows one woman whom Christan Science I cured of the grip, and several whom the grip cured of Christain Science. Women love bargains so much i that they delight in making men feel cheap. My wife says a good many peoI pie who are expecting to be snatchi ed up in a fiery chariot, like Elijah, ! would look better in the patrol J wagon.
