Mher maidnor man can know except by experten As to the head @ the family, why not one try considering the other a8 @ partner; life and happiness are a business, As to the “iffers’ and “butters,” who are afraid, let the men remember it was a woman who sald, “Entreat me not to leave thee orto cease from following after thee; whither thou goest I will go; t people ehall be my people, and thy God my God,” and the girls nay @emember it was a man who said, “The value of a good wif@ js far above rubles.” % "i es ae a. a PETE My wife and I marrie@ without any scie have never had mle than $20 a wee®, thr all, with the usual concomitants, @ebt and sickness; have two ghildren to rear, and would not change our life for the bare possession of wealth, without each other.

TED, I have been both edifled and amused, in reading your column; and indignant, when one bachelor gave as his reason for remaining in that state, that God made him the head of the family and he had not found 4 woman who was willing he should retain that position. Jt is fortunate he did not find such a one. Had he succeeded he would certainly very soon ha divorce courts another job, or have made a veritable slave of his wie It would not bevefit soctety to have any more of his species propa- gated.
