The simple truth is teamen take a great
many mmeaxmry trjyt."
These were the very words uttered by
Hon. James Huntley to his beloved wife
Elizabeth, one winter evening.
James Huntley, the successful busi
ness man, the courteous, dignified, elc
gantigontleman, and a universal favorite
with the ladies; Elizabeth, Ids wife, once
blooming and still lovely, had just put
tile three Huntley saplings in bed, witli
iiilume labor, and mucli assistance from
nurse, and now, when Fred had taken i
his last drink of water, baby had cried
herself into the arms of Morpheus and
out of his mother's aching ones, she had
walked slowly down stairs, thinking
how glad she would be to retire herself,
but conscious of the duties still to be
done and anxious to join her husband
for a little quiet chat, the one bright
thing after her bustling, weary day.
She entered the library with her mend
ing basket in her arms, hoping her hus
band would offer to read aloud while
she attacked the haunting household
demon; but no, his words of greeting
were:
"Well, Lizzie, I thought you were
never coming down. Why don't you
lot nurse get baby to sleep?'
"For the good reason, Jamie, that I
am its mother, and poor nurse has her
hands full with the others. Do you
want anything?"
"Yes, I've been waiting here two good
hours to hear you read Wilson's speech,
you read so much better than I do, and
besides it does me good to lay otl" and
smoke."
"Sorry to disappoint you, Jamie, I
must work. All the contents of this
and mally, dear, I am very tired."
Then the ITon. James expressed his
views concerning tired women as slated
above, and threw himself on the lounge
with ids cigar in his mouth, rattling his
paper mther more than the occasion de
manded
Iilzzle drew her basket near her and
put out her hand to begin operations,
whon an imperious voice said:
(it i . r. - i . i . .
"I wish you would havo the cootlness
to move that tabic with tho drop light
a little nearer; a man can't read in the
dark."
Oh, Hon. James, just think of it! you,
thc"elegont society man," "thedevoted
husband" and "polite gentleman" ad
dressing your wife in such a manner!
Did wo not see you, one week since,
walking throught the elegant conserva
tory of our friend, Mrs. Jones, and did
we not hear you tell her "your wife was
a model woman, aud highly accom
plished?" Did she not urge vou to
bring her there and you promised it! for
"yourMarliug Lizzie was very fond of
flowers." And here you are thinking
only of self, and ordering her to move a
heavy table for your accommodation,
whilo your words and manners are such
as you would not dare use to one of your
servants.
I am drawing your picture from life.
and you must not fin., lault with the
drawing because the wart on your nose
is so prominent. If the wart did not

and all tho Huntleys are at liberty to
touch tin the picture and improve il if
you wish.
.Lizzie Huntley moved Ine table and
sat down again. A blur jiossed before
her eyes, and a little stab of pain shot
through her, but not a word passed her
lips.
She was learning her life lesson in the
wrong way. AVith her great unselfish
love she had fancied all troubles sent are
troubles to be borne with patience. She
had yet to learn that trials sent us by
the All-wise aro the only ones under
which wo should "sutler and be strong,"1
hut'trials and troubles of men's devising
are to be fought against in just indignn-

On top of the work basket lay a letter,
a plump, crumpled letter, which Lizzie
had tried all day to lind time for read
ing; she had brought it down intending
to asK James lo snare it wan iicr, but
tue little cloud "no bigger than a man's
hand" hud arisen in the domestic sky.
She looked at her husband, and decided
he was not in a favorable mood just
, bne would reau it to mm again.

medley which accumulates, you know

Nurse was at hand to to mop up the
carpet, whilo mamma attended to the
rubbing down and reconstruction of this
son of Adam. Going to her own room
after quiet was restored, Lizzie opened
her letter and entered heartily into her
friend's plans for the summer, but just
as she reached the never-forcotten "my
husband says," the door burst open and

Still trembling with fright, she was
called upon to repeat her directions to
the seamstress: "Did she say two tucks
and one rufllc, or two nifties and one
tuck ?" That weighty matter decided,
Lizzie went to her room.
Master Fred, an irrepressible youth of
three years, had taken advantage of the
open doors aud excitement in the nurs-
; cry, aud made a raid on mamma's room.
wnen mamma entered, sue saw tne
Jotter on the floor made into a. ball, her
work basket up-set, a bottle of Bay-v'atcr
nad wasted its sweetness on uieiirusseis
carpet, her tooth-powder was scattered
about promiscuously, books and papers
were thrown down, and about the lloor
such trilling adornments were seen as
half a dozen clothes-pins, a tin pan, a
broken-nosed baby, a rubber ball, a
feather duster, and the last Ilazar with
tne lasnton plates as mucn disordered as
the hair of a fashionable belle. The lit
tle culprit stood In the corner, ncenhnr

play of dimples, and the irrepressible
youngster marched oft with nurse, look
ing triumphantly at the scene of his
late exploits with an assurance which
seemed to say, "Didn't me lix 'em ail
nice?"
At last order reigned, and Lizzie at
tempted again the persual of her letter
only to hear, "We need a yard and
three-quarters more of this trimming for

iiow deliclltlill it would be to un over
the well known paths with this dear
friend. How thoughtful John was con
cerning Nellie's comfort aud happiness! ;
James used lo be in tiie old davs, was
it her fault now? She hoped not, it
was so hard to lookafter everything and
do everything well, and she had kept
faithfully the promise to herself to do
all in her power to make home hannv.
"What would James say if sho proposed

XannicDIuut proposed going upstairs
to take a peep at the babies, for Nun-
nie's youngest was at tills very moment
winding zephyr for a charming young
lady, and Nannie's great heart took in j
all the little ones and her stout arms;
were always open for "Auntie's jiets."
The two women went tin tosether and
soon became deeply absorbed in conver
sation, Dannie borrowing a thimble and
attacking some or the stockings.
"No use for you to tell me to nut it

here with a thousand nameless worries,
while you go out and freshen yourself
by contact with your fellow-men, listen
to the news of the day, chat a little,

work your clerks harder and pay them
well for it, and perhaps put your own
shoulders to the wheel a little. Then
you come home and eat a nice dinner
which she is very anxious about lest it
should not please you, and thou while
she is doing the hardest work known to
