" Wc have been married forty years; my bride was the belle of New York when I mar ried her, and though I loved her for herself, still a beautiful Mower is all the lovlicr poised in an exquisite vase. My wife knew thi, and true to her genu ine refinement baa never, in all iheae forty years, apearcd at the table m al lowed me to ec her less carefully dressed than in the days of our honey moon. Some might call this foolish vanity) I call it real womanliucM, I presume 1 should not have ceased U love hei had she followed the example of many other, anil considering the cciy-dav life of home necessarily de void of oeentjf, allowed herse lf to be carcle-ss "I such II matters as dre-a. bag for her husband's eye; but hue is increased when wc are proud of the eMeet loved, ami to-day I nt'n more proud 01 my beautiful wife with her silver hair and gentle face than of the bride whose loveliness was the theme of every tongue. Any young lady can win a lover; how few can keen them such alter years of married life. In all the little courtesies of life; in all that makes one attractive and charm ing, in thoughtfulncss of others and forgelfulness of self, every home should he begun and continued. Men should be in. re careful to sympathise and pro tect the wife than the bride more w il ling t pick up her scissors, hand her the paper, or Carry her packages than if she were a young lady; and as no lady would lor a moment think of con trolling the movements and engage ments of n young gentleman, neither should she do so when he is her bus band. If by making herself bright and attractive she fails to hold him, compulsion will only drive hi in farther from net. I 1I0 not believe il possible to retain the friendship f any one by demanding it. 1 1I0 not believe it pos sible tO lose it by being lovable. who SHOULD KEEP BEES. May any one kccpliccs? Kmphati cally, no. A lazy man should nevei undertake il. pul SUCH a man among active, ei. ergetic bees, and the connec tion would he a most incongruous one Such a one would fail quicker in api culture than in almost any other voca lion. No, Id him who is not williui' to roll up his sleeves, so to speak, and enter upon the duties of bee keeping with Spartan energy, seek some other and more suitable occupation. Then, too, there are some who are cspei i.illy interdicted from bee-keeping by reason ol their systems being bo ,nsct iitiblc to the poison intruded with the bee's sting. Apiculture history presents many c imus case's limn this poisoning. lie who is intelligent, energetic, cau tious, ami midy at a moment's notice to obey the calls of bee-keeping, who has no thought of delay, mat lake up this business 11s a spriialty, Willi gooel prospects of slice ess.
