LIGONIER, IND., WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 1569.

THE BEST WIFE IN THE WORLD, L AMY RANDOLPH. kg “The best little wife in the world 1” said Herbert Ainscourt. - “Of course—l dare say,” responded Mr. Porteross. = “But wzat’s your, exact idea of the best wife in the world ? Jones sz{é he’s got the best. wife in the world, becaunse she keeps his stockings darned, takes him to church three times of a Sunday, and never lets him have an opinion of his own. Jenkins says he's got the same identical artiticle, but Jenkins’ wife keeps all the money, draws his salary for him, and makes him live in the back kitchen, because the parlor.is too good for the family to use.” ' “Oh! but Daisy ig'nt a bit ogreish—a little submisgive, soft-voiced thing that hasn’t an idea except what is reflected from me. I tell you what, old fellow, I'm the master of my own house; I come when I please, and go when 1 please. Daisg never ventures on a word of reproach.” ~ “Then you ought to be ashamed of yourself, larking around at the clubs as you do, dissipated-bachelor fashion.” “Ashamed! What of?"’ ; - “Why, I suppose you owe some daties to your wife 7” : “Where’s the harm? .My wife doesn’t care.” :

“Probably you think so becaunse she is quiet and - submissive ; but if she were to object—" = “Object! I'd like to hear try it.” “Now look here, Ainscourt; your wife may be a model wife, but 3011 certainly are not a model husband.— People are beginning to talk about the way you neglect that pretty little blue-eyed girl.” e

- INTHE 61IY!

- “I’ll thank people.to mind their own business. - Neglect her, indeed! Why man I Jove her as I love my own goul.” B :

“Then why don’t you treat her as if you did?” e ~. - “Ohl come, Portcross; that question just shows what a regular old bachelor you are. It won’t do to make too much of your wife, unless you want to spoil her.” Mr. Porteross shook his head. - - That -sounds selfish. I don’t like the ring of the metal.” : And he went away, leaving Mr, Aingcourt/ to finish his. game of billiards at his leisure.

- “What a regular old fuss-budget Portcross is,”” laughed the latter. “Always poking his nose into somebody else’s'business. ' There’s one comfort —II never pay any attention to what he says.” s . j

Meanwhile Mrs, Ainscourt was sitting alone -in her drawing room, her two little. white hands tightly locked in one auother, and her fair head slightly drooping—a delicate little ap-ple-blossom “of a woman, with blue wistful eyes and curly, flaxen hair looking more like a gram=up cnild than a wife of twenty-one summers. () dear!” sighed Daisy, «“It is so dull here. I wish Herbert would come home. He -never spends any time with me now-a-days, and I practice all his favorite songs, and read the newspapers, so‘ I can talk about the things he is interested in, and try so hard to be entertaining. It’s very gtrange.’l o oo : ‘And then her oval face brightened into sudden brilliance, and the sparkles stole into her eyes : for the wife’s quick ear had detected her husband’s footstep on the stairs, The next moment he came in, Aol

“Well, pet, how are you?!” with a playful pinch of the cheek. There are some bonbons for you. Where are my light glovas 7 | , “O Herbert! youn are not going away again ¥’ “I must, Daisy. There are a lot of fellows going io drive up to High Bridge, and I am one of the party. You can go over to my mother’s to dinner, or send for one of your friends, or something. There, good bye, puss; I'm in a deuce of & hurry.” © And with one careless kiss pressed on the quivering damask rose of a mouth' that was lifted up to him; he was gone. <o Daisy Ainscourt neither went to her mother-in-law, nor sent for one of her girl-friends. - She spent the evening all alone, pondering: on the:shadow which was Fast' overgrowing her life. . “What shall I do?’ thought the little . timid, shrinking wife; *“Oh, what shall T do ¥’ - b e But, child as she was, Daisy had a strong, resolute, woman’s heart within her, nor was she long in coming to a decigion, ! _ o _ . “Daisy,” said her husband to her the next day, ‘‘you haven’t any objections to my attending the Orion Bal Masghol™ - - w o 4 “Are masked balls nice places, Herbage’ = - ' : “O yes, everybody goes; only I thought I'd pay you the compliment of asking whether you disapproved of it or not 1”” : : ‘ “Can I go with you?”’ ;\ “«Well-—ahem—not very well, this time, Daisy.” "You see, Mrs. Fenchurch -rea{ly"hinted so strongly for me to take ‘her,'that I couldn’t ,he'l’p‘é it.” S ¢ . “Very well,” assented Daisy, meekly, and Herbert repeated within himgelf the pwan of praises he had chanted in: Mr. Portcross’ ears: “The best little wife in the world !~ . ‘But notwithstanding all this, Mr. Aingcourt:. was . not exactly pleased when, at ithe selfsame Bal Masque,

during the period of unmasking, he saw his wife’s innocent face crowning the picturesque costume of a Bavarian peasant girl. - < - . Bl - “Hallo!” he ejaculated, rather un< graciously, “you here.” s o 0 “Yes,” lisped Daigy, with a gitlish -smile: . /*You :said: 'evétybb‘d{.-rmtl - And oh, Herbert, isn’t it-nice” : -+ Mir. Athsconrt said ‘nothing more; - but/M#s. Fenchurch found him fam} stupid comparion for. the remainder o the-éveninguovsp Blugs 6iis 01l pooup e e ot I 8 8, Do o, i ' more puiie wﬁ@ wife, and th : Mg, ‘Daidv tripped in, her cashmere

shawl trailing over her shoulders, and tdiqpled cheeks all %l':nk with the fresh wind. = - «Am T behind time? Really, I'am 80 sorry? But we have been driving in the park, and—" - “We! Who are we ?” growled her husband. s ‘ “Why, Colorel Adair and I—the Col. Agair that you go out with so mueh.” - Ve NEO

“Now look here, Daisy !” ejacula‘ted Mr. Ainscourt, raiging from the table and pushing back his chair. “Adair isn't exactfy.the man I want you to drive with.” “But you go everywhere with him.” «I dare say—but you and I are two different persons!” , {“Now, dear Herbert,” interposed Daisy, willfully misunderstanding him, “you know I wae=never a bit proud, | and the associates that are good enough for me. Let me give you a few more oywters,” ey o Aingcourt looked sharply at his wife. ‘Was she really in earnest, or was there & mocking undercurrent of satire’ in her tone? But he could not.decide, so artless was her countenance. : I’ll talk to her about it sometimc, was his internal decision. - “Daisy,” he said carelessly, when dinner was over, “I’ve asked old Miss Barberry to come and spend the day with you to-morrow !” - "Og, have you?! I'm sorry, for.l’'m engaged out to-morrow.”’ ey “You! Where!” : “Oh, at Delmonico’s. I’ve joined a Woman’s Rights Club, and we meet there to organize.” : “The deuce take woman’s rights!” ejaculated the irate husband. " “Of course I don’t believe in 'em, but it’s the fashion to belong to a club, and such a nice place to go to eyenings. lam dull here evenings, Herbert !” ik " Herbert’s heart smote him, but he | answered resolutely : _ | “I beg yon will give up this ridiculous idea. 'What do. women want of | oluba®’ | . : “What men, do, I suppose.” . “But I don’t approve of it at all,” | *You belong to three clubs, Her- | bert.” : | “That’s altogether a different mat- | ter.” :

. “But why is it different, Herbert? “Hem~—why? because—of course anybody can see why—it's self-evi-dent.” | . “I must be very blind,” said Mrs. Ainscourt,/ demurely, “but I must confess I can’t discriminate the essential diffeence.” : ' Herbert Ainscourt said no more, but he did not at all relish the change that had lately come over the spirit of Daisy’s dream. o - She did change, somehow. She went out driving, here, there, and everywhere. He never knew. when il:l‘i WAag. . 1 ven i WAL her; ‘gﬁ’étj’o?n‘éﬁ not. g}ﬁty %:'ﬂ%n(l:?ﬁb, but innumerable societies for a thousand and one. purposes, which took her away from home_ almost continually. Mr. Ainscourt chafed against the bit, but it was useless. Daisy always had an excuse to plead. ’ Presently her mother-in-law bore down upon her—an austere old lady in black satin and a chestnut brown WiEe - e

. “Daisy, you are making my son ' wretched.” - : “Am I?” cried Daisy. “Dear me, I hadn’t an idea of it! What’s the | trouble 7”7 . ‘ i ' .“You must ask himself,” said the ' mother-in-law, who believed—sensible old lad{-—in young married ladies settling their own difficulties. “All (I know is the bare fact.” % . So Daisy went home to the drawing - room, where Heabert lay on the sofa f Er‘et‘ending to read, but: in reality rooding over his troubles. | “What’s the matter, Herbert ?”’ said Daisy, kneeling on the floor beside him, and putting her soft, cool hands on his fevered brow. ' “The matter? Nothing much, only I am migerable,” he sullenly answered. “But why 7’ she persisted. ‘“Because you are so changed, Daisy.” “How am I changed.” : “You are never at home; you have lost the domesticity which was, in my eyes, your greatest charm. I never have you to myself any more. Daisy, don’t you see how it is imbittering my life | ]

“,Does it make you unhappy ?”’ she asked, softly. “You know that it does, Daisy."” ~_“And do you suppose I liked it, ‘Herbert ¢’ o 7 “What do youn mean ?”’ he asked. “I mean that I passed the first year of my married life in just such a lonegsome way. You had no ‘domesticity.’ Clubs, drives, billiard playing, and champagne suppers engrossed your whole time. 1 your wife pined at home alone.” . “But why didn’t you tell me you ‘were unhappy ?” ’ ; “Because you would have laughed at the idea, and called it a woman’s whim. I resolved that when we were first married, to fritter away neither time nor breath in idle complaints. I have not complained; I have simply followed your example.

Here is a text from which Dr. Franklin céuld have preached a forcible sermon to parents. B A man who has a good trade has an independence. He has need only to be honest and diligent to secare a competence. Bread and butter are sure for him wherever: he is. He is sure always of higher wages than he who has no trade; and if his genius and enterprise lead him into seme other calling, it is always a patisfaction to' know that in case of misfortune he can return to his trade. e has that at any rate; failure in business cannot deprive him of it; his speculations may break down; but he has an anchor to leeward, as the sailors say ; his subsistence and that of his famlly: are sure.

hThe time was f‘;vhen it was not thought reputable for parents to leave their c{xil_d_gen withoutputra.des—uniess they belonged to the class of gentry. In France, before the revolution, this provident sentiment or instinct was so strong that even the children of the nobles were in some cases tauEht some light handicraft, and when the storm came and they were expelled from their homes and deprived of their for/tunes, many of them subsisted by the trades they had amused themselves with in more prosperous days. - ~ In this country, where fortunes, quickly gained, are also quickly lost, it is still more necessary and prudent that every young man BhOtl]dp learn a useful trade, and learn it thoroughly. No man’s fortune i 3 so secure here but that he would do wisely to have his boys—and his girls, too, for that matter—taught a trade. - But, instead of that, even the children of mechanics and shop-keepers are very seldom “put toa trade,” as the phrase used to be. They are made “errand boys in offices, than which no -more hopeless employment could be found for a'boy.” Or they become clerks, shopmen or salesmen; or, if they must go'to work, they change about from one trade to another, and become jacks at all trades and masters at not one. Go where you please, and you hear complaints—well" founded, too—of the incapacity of workmen ; go among the workers, and you find too often that they despise their work, and are sluggards who seek to do as little as possible, and get as much as they can extort. &oo ’ : For a number of years thére has been a run on clerkships and petty shop-keeper’s places. . These employments are filled to overflowing. A sure way to crowd a street and create a mob i 8 to advertise for an office boy or awclerk. We wonder that it does not occur to parents that they could not do better f}(;__r their boys than make them thorough artisans, in some useful and indispensable branch. A competent carpenter gets at least three times the pay ofa clerk, does not work so many hours a day, is muech’ more his own master, ‘and i 8 run after, where the clerk must anxiously solicit emr ployment. A really thorough workman in at:ly useful trade may count upon steady and well-paid work: all the year round, in any -part of the country, even in these dull times ; and if he is intelligent, as a good workman is sure to be, he need not work as a journeyman any longer than he likes. - Then the world is open to him.— He may be a journeyman, literally, for if he is only competent hie may go from city to oity, fram connty %4 eonun. ty, and find ready employment anywhere. There is nothing: this country now needs so bad as competent, intelligent artisans. From Europe we get mainly, as a correspondent shows elsewhere, common day laborers and farm laborers ; there, too, it seems that the good old fashion of apprenticing a boy to a good trade has gone out. s Shrewd foresight then would lead a good father to put lis boy to a good trade, and to take care that he learns it ‘thoroughly. That acquired, he can, with good heart tell the young man,tov‘fgo out into the world to shift for himself, with the words which we used to read, coming from- a hard-working father to his son, “I have given you a 8 much schooling 9s I can afford, and a good trade; that is your fortune, go and‘i’n’w W A young man entering the world, without a fortune and without a trade or profession—is he mot in plaid words an ad‘venturer?

You can’ get him to 'go after ‘them again.— The reason 'is this. Some of the boys played him a trick.

[ From the B¢. Louis Democrat, Edited by Garl_Shurs} Mr. Drske is fighting _:ﬁ\inst the civilization of the age. All 'laws of nature combine to overpower him. Business relations, railroad enterprise, mining or manufacturing: or trade combinations, all melt away those antipa.thies which form his only ‘fgotbold. Pas“sion is "cooling. The fires of civil strife are dying out and he may grow red in ‘the face and short of wind; but he ¢an never blow the embers into blaze again. _The strain and excitement of the war are ‘ﬁnishilg: ; fpé;o;.'ite' see Shelby raising ‘thousdnds of bushels of wheat, Brecken»‘%«“mﬁng the flag, and ‘Mosby confessing . that it was wrong that.he -ever op%eed reconstruction, aﬁ% they see that with the adoption of the fifteenth amend‘ment the vexed negro question willibe fi‘nally settled. ' The policy of disfranchisement must ﬂddown, never to rise again.. Unless the Radical party proposes a set‘tlement this winter, the pefogle will make one in the eléction of 1870. The man who attacks the Germans and says that white men in Missouri shall neveér vote without . the negroes’ consent—is he the man to lead a ;lalarty to -success? | Mr. Drake imitates the Irishman who lashed bimself to the anchor in a storm at sea. He must get loose or |go to the bottom. ‘But we do not want to see him drag down th&;mtty with him. And knowing its ‘intelligence, and its hearty sympathy and agreement in principle ' with the great Republican party. of the nation, wehave faith to belieye that it will not hug the anchor, whether Mr. Drake does or not. " et R e e whe A Singular Trio. - The Louisville Courier-Journal relates that one night recently there was a singu--lar group drinking wine at a restaurant in ‘that city. ‘“‘One of them,” it says, “had ‘been a confederate soldier, and his right. arm had been shot off nearly up to the elbow. Another had lost his right arm in ‘the federal service, and it had been taken off close to the shoulder. The other man appeared to be a federal officer, but com--plained of no disabilities of any sort. The .ex-confederate declared that had John Bell been elected President, the unhappy war would never ha%béome. The large, whole gentleman, thought the election of ‘Douglas would “have acted as a soothing preventive. The man who had lost nearly the whole of his right arm declared that he had ‘been an original Massachusetts abolitionist, and that he had fought well, but that had he lived in the South, he would have fought just as welil for the stars and bars. As a more emphatic expression of, friendly sentiment, they emp?oy,ed: a eouple of strolling Italian musicians to lay between drinks, ¢The Bonnie Blue glag‘,’ ‘Yankee Doodle,” ¢‘Dixie,” ‘Rally *round the Flag, Boys,’ and the Merseilles' ‘Hymn.” " 4t
