A look of love, n word of pity or sym pathy, is sometimes better than medi cine. Never reproach your wife with any personal or mental defect; for a plain fice sometimes conceals a heart of xquisile sensibility and merit, and lier consciousness of the defect makes Iter awake to the slightest attention or inattention. When in the compa ny of others, let your wile's laudable iiride be indulged by your showing you think her an object of impor-i mnee .tun preierenoe. j ne most in- vul word or act of attention and love frcm you gratifies her feelings; and a nun never appears to tnoic advan tage than by proving to the world I. a flection and preference for his wife. Never run on in enthusiastic enco mimm on other women in presence ol your wile; she does not love you bfUer Tor it. Much to be condemn ed, is a married. man constantly ram bling from home for the purpose of passing away time. Surely if he wants employment, his house and groinds will furnish him with it, and if h? wishes f r society, he will find in lis wife, children and books, tlie beit society in the world. There are some men who will sit an entire day with their wives and scarcely a word escape their lips. This is wrong: you should converse freely on all such occasions.

A woman's heart is peculiasly formed lor tenderness, andeverv expression and endearment from ihe man she loves is flatteiing nnd pleasing tu her.
