AUNT HANNAH’S ADVICE.
It was doubtless ft very wise piece of
..[vice which aunt Hannah pave her
new i T married niece. “Child, before
»1I the world, please your husband.”
More than forty years ago, she had
stood before the altar and pledged her
vows “ for hotter, for worse,” to the
T oung husband of her choice.
Tea blissful years swiftly passed, and
she was left alone, to mourn the loss of
one whose manly love had made her
cottage home almost a paradise.
The memory of that day, so dark, so
full of woe, when they buried her
dead from her longiug sight, bad not
tided, but her sorrow tor her beloved
one who “ rested from his labors, ’ and
whose loving, generous works still fol
lowed him, so far from rendering her
selfish and forgetful of others, had
quickened all the noble impulses of her
soul, and now she was ever ready to
•• weep with those who wept, and rejoice
with those who did rejoice.
Since that time she had dwelt alone,
but was always and everywhere a wel
comed guest- At the bridal feast no
hand more tenderly twined fresh flowers
fro the sunny locks of the fair young
bride, and none more lovingly draped
the lifeless form for its last resting
place.
All her life she had passed in the
quiet precincts of her native village,
patiently, yea, cheerfully waiting for
that happy change which would trans
port her from her rose embowered cot
tage, to a “ mansion not made with
hands,” and into the presence of her
precious husband. To that husband
she had given the warmest, purest affec
tions of her young heart, and fully and
unreservedly was it reciprocated.
“ Perfect love casts out fear,” and
doubt found no lodgment in their true
hearts.
To “ please” him, then, was no ardu
ous task, indeed, to her heart, pure and
untainted by the world, it seemed the
most natural, the only natural course.
And yet she had seen husbands and
wives with a strange, and to her an
unaccountable perversity, wander away
into bye and forbidden paths. Often
had she seen love and confidence mis
placed by coldness and distrust; the
smooth unfurrowed brow knitted in
anger or discontent, and the joyous,
smiling lip, curved with bitter scorn, or
drooped in touching sadness.
The voice which was once affection’s
own, she had too often heard in tones
of bitterness or fretful repinings.
She had known happiness, (misan
thropes to the contrary) and with that
loving kindness and ready sympathy
which had characterized her, she longed
to lead others into the path and keep
them there. With all her romantic
ideas of love and constancy, she was
no mere dreamer. She was an earnest,
God-fearing, Bibie-reading woman ; and
in her old worn Bible she read, •* Hus
bands love your wives.” “Wives sub
mit yourselves to your husbands.”
She was au intelligent woman, yet
she had never heard of u woraan’B
rights.” Her devoted, pious mother
had taught her “ woman’s sphere” and
woman’s duties,” and carefully trained
her to a faithful discharge of those
duties.
Nothing which could beautify a home
or make its inmates happy, seemed
ignoble. In her household there was
no drudgery, for all was done with
cheerful alacrity.
While yet a young woman she was
smitten “ widowed and childless.” but
a kind Providence had thrown many
young people under her charge, and
carefully and lovingly did she try to
instil those sentiments of love and for
bearance into their minds; thus sowing
the seeds of love and gentleness beside
still waters, she often saw them spring
lorlh and bear luxuriantly.
Hut human nature is frail, and not
<^ay S did “the course of true love
run smooth.”
While all acknowledged the beauty of
mutual forbearance and consideration,
mid all admitted that two more lovely
creatures than “bear and forbear”
could never be admitted into the family
crcle, there was, alas, sometimes a
railing away.
Husbands became too much engrossed

done,” abe added with equal fervency—
“ Lead us not into temptation.”
She taught her young companions,
just starting on life's journey, that hap
piness was to be found only in the dis
charge of duty, and that a faithful per
formance of all duties, however irksome,
however unappreciated here, will cer
tainly give that “ peace which passeth
all understanding.”
Oue of her brothers was now a pros
perous merchant in the city of B .
His eldest daughter, a beautiful and
highly accomplished girl, was just mar
ried to a young man of handsome person
fine business habits and unexception
able morals—one calculated in every
respect to make a wife happy.
The lair young bride was charming,
and yet a thorough woman of the world.
She loved her husband somewhat better
it is true, but in the same spirit in
which she loved her beauty, his wealth,
and social position.
Aunt Hannah had made a visit to
the eity, to witness the solemnization of
the marriage, aud while she dearly
loved her niece—she plainly saw the
spirit of vanity and worldliness, which
lurked in her bosom, and she was irre
sistibly compelled to lift a warning
voice.
She could not bear that the happiness
of that young couple should be sacri
ficed for mere worldly pleasure, and as
a preventive, she exclaimed : “Child,
before all things, love your husband’
and before all the world, please him.’’
Now this advice was good, well
timed, and kindly given, but with not
half the experience ol that wise old
lady, I would suggest an amendment,
an amendment which will commend
itself to all my sisters : “Try to please
your husbaud.”
That, next to her God, woman owes
her allegiance to her husband, is not a
a question of argument. To “love,
honor, and obey,” that man, who has
chosen her to walk beside him, through
life’s, journey, is the natural impulse of
her soul.
She deems no sacrifice too great which
will insure the happiness and win the
commendation of her “ lord and mas
ter.” Cheerfully she travels life’s weary
road, content, too often, alas, with the
mere crumbs which fall from his table
of affection.
But woman has not the power, much
less the faith, to “ remove mountains
so many a time and oft she fails in the
one great desire of her life, to “ please
her husband.”
It may be her fault, it may be her
misfortune, but at any rate there is a
failure, and with that failure comes, of
course, unhappiness, and sometimes
utter wretchedness.
She forgets that the man she worships,
however good and noble, is only human,
And she is weak and helpless.
Love your husband ever, through
“evil and good report,” through cold
ness and neglect, if yon can; but for
your own sake, for the sake of the little
ones who look up to you as their source
of happiness, do not attempt impossi
bilities.
Ascertain your duty (God will teach
you that when your own instinct fails),
and then faithfully and cheerfully dis
charge that duty, looking for approval
and reward toa higher source than mere
man.
l As wife and mother your sphere is a
noble one, and in it you will find, if not
happiness, peace, which is mere endur
ing.
Adopt, uureservedly, Aunt Hannah’s
rule, “ before all the world, please your
husband, ’ and you will surely find dis.
appointment; adopt it, with the addition
of the magical word try, and the happi
uess which inevitably follows a discharge
of duty, will be yours. E. D.

Throw away your false frizzes, your switches,
your wig—
Destructive of comfort, and not worth a fig:
Come aged, come youthful, come ugly and
fair,
And rejoice in your own luxuriant hair.
REP AR ATOif CAPILLI,
For restoring hair upon bald heads (from
whatever cause it may have fallen out) and
forcing a growth of hair upon the face, it
has no equal. It will force the beard to
grow upon the smoothest face in from five
to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in
from two to three months. A few ignorant
practitioners have asserted that there is
nothing that will force or hasten the growth
of the hair or beard. Their assertions are
false, as thousands of living witnesses (from
their own experience), can bear witness.
But many will say, how are we to distin
guish the genuine from the spurious? It
certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the
different preparations advertised for the
hair and beard are entirely worthless, and
you may have already thrown away large
amounts in their purchase. To such we
would say, try the Reparator Capilli j it
will cost you nothing unless it fully comes
up to our representations. If your Druggist
does not keep it, send us one dollar and we
will forward it, post paid, together with a
receipt for the monev, which will be re

I BEG LEAVE TO CALL THE ATTEN
TION of the public to this wonderful
Steam Engine, which is cheaper, lighter,
less intricate, occupies less space, consumes
less fuel than any other engine, and is
superior in every other way, it being in
fact a double cut off Engine, without the
friction of a double set of valves with their
multiform attachments, and for its superior
merits was awarded the gold medal at the
Maryland Institute Fair, in October, 1866,
over ali other engines. This invention,
therefore, forms the most radical
and entire change in steam engines
which has occurred since the days of
Watts, being durable, accurate, and econ
omical in operation in space beyond all
comparison with tho past, and at far less
original cost than ever before attained.

ING to her country home, after a sojourn

ASTROLOGY.
The World Astonished
AT THE WONDERFUL REVELATIONS
MADE BY THE GREAT ASTROLOGIST,
M ADAWE H. A. PFIIRIGO.
She reveals secrets no mortal ever knew.
She restores to happiness those who, from
doleful eveuts, catastrophes, crosses in love,
loss of relations and friends, loss of money,
etc., have become despondent. She brings
together those long separated, gives infor
mation concerning absent friends or lovers,
restores lost or stolen property, tells you the
business you are best qualified to pursue
and in what you will be most successful,
causes speedy marriages and tells you the
very day you will marry, gives you the
name, likeness, and characteristics of the
person. She reads your very thoughts, and
by her almost supernatural powers, unveils
the dark and hidden mysteries of tho future.
From the stars we see in the firmament—
the melific stars that overcome or predomi
nate in the configuration—from the aspects
and positions of the planets and the fixed
stars io the heavens at the time of birth,
she deduces the future destiny of man. Fail
not to consult the greatest Astrologist on
earth. It costs you but a trifle, and you
may never again haye so favorable an op
portunity. Consultation fee, with likeness
and all desired information, sl. Parties
living at a distance can consult the Madame
by mail witlPequal safety and satisfaction
to themselves, as if in person. A full and
oxplicit chart, written out, with all inqui
ries answered and likeness enclo=ed, sent
by mail on receipt of price above mentioned.
The strictest secrecy will be maintained,
and all correspondence returned or de
stroyed. References of the highest order
furnished those desiring them. Write plain
ly the day of the month and year in which
you wore born, enclosing a small lock of
hair. Address,
