It was plain that he had grown impaticnt under the trials to which the continued ill health of his wite had exposed him. s . - |

1 called at his office dgain towards evening, and went howme with him.— Had 1 met Mrs. Wilkinsin tbf(s;ﬂ'eczt,' 1 would not have recognized inAfér the happy bride, who, ten years before, blusning in beauty, I had seen giving her hand in a hte-partnership, with such loving confidence in the future, to .the husband of her ehoice. Her countenance was wan and wasted, all the beautitully rounded outlines were gone, her eyes, deeply sunken, were languid ‘almost tc indifference; her hair, once richly luxuriant had fallen olf until scarce half of “it remained and that lookéd dry and erisp, with here and there a premature .line of grey. She stooped slightly, and her motions were difeless. = = - 0 ik

A taint smile parted her lips as 1 grasped her bhand with all thé warmth of a gentine friendly interest. But it faded almiost as soon as it was born.— i tried to talk with Her i@ a cheerful strain, and. did: succeed - in awakening a -brief -mterest in olden times. But the present was too paintully real; it would not permit her thoughts to indulge in pleasant fancies. I couid not help-asking about herself and children; and this turned the current of her feelings into their wonted. channel; and I listened to her sad heartstories and painful experiénces in sickfess, until wy own feelings were decpiy\ shadowed. I pitiéed her. What a sogbre, suffering hié had been hers!— Inth what a womld of misery instead of happiness had marriage translated her! A 3 W observed her hnsbaud carefally. “was—plain that he had but little sympathy in his wife's’ state of feeling. I%e was 2 sufferer with her, though in a lighter degree;— and, as his sufferings originated in her, there was plainly a certain lack of kindly patience toward his companion.— Several times he interrupted her, trying to diaw the conversation into anotger channel; and, once pr twice he threw in dépreciating. sentences, as if she were exaggerating the unhappy stoot hewlide - oo oo I learned that' Mrs. Wiikins rarely, if ever went out of her own house,— Her duties were very arduous; and her ability, from ill health, small. Every day she worked to bodily exhaustion,

and usually in pain. - There was no recreation of any kind, bodily or mental. Tt was a living death. No wonder she was a drooping, wretched, nervous woman. : | . ;

Next day T ealled to see my friend, ‘having made uwp my mind to havea plain talk with him. I referred to his wife, expressing my eam?w.y - “Poor Mary!” he replied, ‘her case is h}opetegs,}g%ﬁb;ﬂm,-lfesﬁ i + +While there's life there’s hope,” said 1, using the physician’s half-despairing e eAI Lo e - He regarded me-=a Kitle curiously. - ~ “How often da you take her out?” I inquired. = ¢ e He shook hishead. ‘Can’t afford carriage hire; ’tis as muych as T can do to pay the dector.— No, no, neither of us have the time nor ‘money to spend for riding out.” - “Change and fresh air, you will find better and cheaper than doetor’s stufl. Do you take “her to the seaside in summer?’ 3

- ‘You are jesting,’ he replied with the air_of’ one “who feit thatyan undue liberty had been taken. | . ‘Far from it, my friend,’ I answered seriously, ‘I feel too warm an interest in you to jest on a sulject like this. A visit to a watering place is a‘luxury,” he remurked sadly.” L "*Do not ;mention them as luxuries in your case. If the enervated votary of pleasure needs them for récreation, and to impart a new zest to the year's sueceeding round of bay existence, how much uore arc they for the “sick, the nervous, the exhausted toiler in life’s field of earnest labor. I fear my friend you have not -thought wisely of your wife’s true position; that in some sense you are to blamec for her present ill health and state of mental depression. - ‘How?” Wilkins looked surprised.

~ YThe human soul,’ I answered, ‘is not piece of senseless machinery; not made up of a series of iron whecls that can do their work gs well in.the dark underground chamber as in broad daylight. Even the flower wmust have change—air, sunlight, morning, evening, and the s&'l-&'uncing seasons, for its hoalthy - mmr.}fhmx ek the human foul fs of a higher organization, and has multitudinous wants, compared with the flower. Shut up the flower from the warm sun and the refreshing air, ajd will it not grow sickly —nay will it not tace and die? You are treating your wife with less consideration than you -would treat a houseplant. No wonder that she is dying quliy’ =0 oo =y :

Wilkins really ldoked. amazed, and T was for a little while in doubt whether he were offonded at my freedom, or astounded at hisjown blindness touching the nature and wants of the human soul which he had joined'in a life companionship with his own. : ‘Natures two best physicians,” T went on, are pure air and exercise. And what is better, they charge nothing for attendance. | : + “To a large part of mankind,” answered Wiklins, ‘time is monecy. Itis so with us.” ' | ’ . ‘Don’t make that a too positive conclusion.” Inerease the strength, and you diminish the hours of labors—nay, more, you remove the cause of extreme exhaustion. - My word for it, if yon had spent twenty pounds a year in giving your wife change of scene, seabathing, and mental, as well as bodily recreation, your doetor’s bill " would have been reduced by more than that amount. How often do you take her to concerts or other places of innocent amugement?” @ = - We haven’t been to'a concert in five years, said he, o : ~And yetl remember she was passionately fond of wysie. - R iR b mske] WL et Ewesliy. U o o T - Better go withont a dinner occasionally. gealth of the soul is quite as essential as health of the body. ~ If you starve the fdrhéer, what is there in mere cating and drinking worthiliving for? _ Mary wouldn't go if I were to purohse tickets, 'Sho. has housed_hor self s long thapshe has no desire to Stop across tho threshliold.

- Wilkins was ineredulous, and half opposed me; but my interest in his uns, py wife was too strong, and I resolved 10 have my own way. The tickets and invitation was aceordingly sent. . 1 ealled at my friends office, in the aftersoon, to go home with him. - - Well, said Fcheerfully, what word trom your good wife? Will she be ready for the concert? Nt

I'm afraid not. y a 0 “Wilkins shook his head and looked gloowy. : Wiatdidshesay? ; That it, was impossible for her to go »M"Wuld"nt"’?&z@ the kil dren and finally, after T had ‘met every objection, with a reason that could not be gainsaid, she declared that she did ot feel a wish to go,-and couldn’t think of it. Seas i B ~ The ice is very solid and hard to break through. ‘I smiled as I spoke.— It is that want of inclination which must he overcome. . s . Bat Wilsins was of a different opinon. ' { I know her a great deal better than you do, was his answer. I went home with him. There was a change in Mrs. W., a glance revealed this. The langor and exhaustion so painfully apparent on the previous evening, were searcely visible. Her eyes were brighter, her countenance .more olevated, herlips had a firmer outline [ saw=that some attention had been giv en to her dress; and though not in con-

cert trim, it was plain.enough that it wonid not.take her a very great while to be in a presentable condition. ; Wilkins was in error. His wife did go to the conéert, and surprised both him and myself by .the amount of pleasure shereceived from the exquisite peiformance. Indeed she expressed her satisfaction in lively terms,and with a glowing face, in the intervals of many of the picces. iedi How is Mrs Wilkins! I asked of my friend, as I eutered his place of busineds on the next day. e ~ Better than for many months, Tam pleased to say, was his answer. She seemed this morning, almost another "w"’g"‘ﬂ& g&a; music wa.s.'hki an elixir

F_ ¥had Terch 10 36 said 1. f’c’pénd up‘on Wilkins, you have been consenting to your wife’s death by murder and suicide—muader on your part and suicide on hers. My nextrecommendation is the sea-side. Give up business for a week; take her to some watering place imme liately. Sea-air, sca-bathing, and 2 sight of the old ocean will put new life into her veins. : ‘ Sue can’t possibly leave home. We have too many young children. o She'll have to leave home, and her young children, too, forever, if you don't do something to save her. 1 spoke with’ some feeling, for ‘I saw a little inclination to throw difficulties in the way. Just make up your mind that.the thing has to be done, and T'll answer for your wife. The factis, it’s my epinion that she’ll say yes on the first proposition. g And so she did. A little manage‘ment was practised. I accepted another imvitation to tea, and during the evening, gave as graphic a deseription as was in my power of the novelty, excitement and. wonderful beneficial effeots of a weok at the sea shore. My own experience was right tothe point, having regained “Strength almost by magie aftera long period of extreme ‘nervoug exhaastion. -~ - x| You must take your wife to the sea side. It is just what she wants, said I after the way had been fully prepared. - Wiikins followed up with such a hearty acquieseuce that the point was carried under scarcely an appearance of objection. Difficulties were of course sugoested 3 but these were of such slender 1 '_rﬁlfoe{ thut‘a‘, they were waived almoSthas soon as presented. Two days afterwards 1 had the satisfaction of seeing them off.

_ ‘By jacting on the hint you gave, 1 hired a carriage for an excursion, once a week, while the pleasant weather las. ted, it cost me a few shilings eaeh time; but it was cheaper than paying the doctor, and the medicine cured more radically. You ecan’t imagine what a change in he feelings took place. Nothing outside of the narrow circle of home interested her " before ; thaught seemed asleep, or palsied ; but now she takes an interest in everything.,’ ‘Was it not starved inta more than infantile weakness?” 1 inquired. . ‘Perhaps 50" he said thaagtfully.— ‘The mind must have xtg appropriate food as well as the body.” ¥2 "~ = Nothing is traer than that, 1 replied.’ i o S TR

“And. like the body, it must have the a'terat'ons of shade and sunshine, fresh air and exercise. 1t must have change and recrestion, as well as sgeasons of labor. Without these, mental health is impossible ; and, without mental health there can be no true bodily health”’

~ 'Husbands, I fear, are not thoughtful enoug! about their wives in this pat'e ular. lam very certain if every toiling housekeeper, & wora down, exhausted ‘mother, whose pa'e fuce is hardly ever seen beyond the portals of her own door, were forced abroad oceusionally into the social world if they would not go willingly, and taken yearly to the sea side for a few weeks, that hundreds and thousanis of wives and mothers who “are sickly, nervous, and unhappy. would be in the enjoymet of good health’and ch-erful spirits, giving light to their homes :nd hapyiness to the hearts of their hushands.

‘ln early days, old Nat Harrigon was elected to the Legislature from this couuty,” said an old fellow, as we were all scated around the little hotel at M?h,ancstrQMmii@ counfy,llinois. - G

‘Old Nat was a regular brick—he was elected just because there was no oue to oppose him. Our country was rather bad off for intelligent peop’e in those days. A few days after old Nat bad gone to. Springfield, to attend to the dutics of | his office, I happened to be there also, on some bu-incss of a privats character, and thinkivg he would be glad to hecar from the folks at home, I concluded to cail on him at the ‘Prairie, and inquire after his health. : y

Let Them Tell 1.~ - | Dr. Johnson used to say it was an excellent thing to encourage children to repeat to some brother or Bister, or playmate, whatever of importance they had seen or heard told. .He said the very attemnt to tell it to others, would fix it most indelibly on their own mind and related that his mother, after having described to him the future joys of the blessed, direéted him to go to the gardner and tellit over to him. Parents will find this a most interesting.and profitable effort, Let them be - encouraged to tell to others the sermon to which they have listened, the cxercises of the sabbath schoo®or whatever they have seen or heard, that is ‘worthy to be impressed on ‘their own minds, and the effect will be good in yariens ways.
