such a word ot" praise from a husband's lips makes one rich amends for every tear one has ever shed over former sufferings. Father And my belief is that many a wife might and would have such a reward did she take the right way to set about deserving it. Mary docs not like to hear herself praised, but I must say never woman strove more dilU 19 gently than she did to win her husband to right ways, or to keep him in them when he had taken to them. Hannah Why how did she set to work? I am sure I ha...ve talked and talked till 1 am tired, and all to no purpose. Father I think her actions did more for her than her words, for in the first place how- ever much she grieved alone, she always took care he should have a home of peace and chearfulness to come to when he returned from work, and by this means gave herself the comfort of knowing that no fault of her's ever drove him from his own fireside. Wil- liam was never an ill-tempered man; and though sometimes when he was in liquor he would give her cross words, yet as she always took them mildly, and as he really loved her, he would be ready enough in the morning when he was sober to express his sorrow for what had passed, and to promise better con- duct.
