A (usual Peep Into Their Inner Depths. Today I come to tell you of some peeps into men’s hearts, thus to show that not alone does women bear “life-long hunger” ’ in the heart. As 1 look at the passers-by, I often find myself wondering what the inner life could reveal ofaching'longings after love. The peeps 1 have had into hearts, have given me to know that all is not calm that is hidden by smiles. Too often these cover caverns of despair. 1 knew a man whose soul was refined purity, whose nature was affectionate and full of cravings for the sanctity of a home, but whose dwelling held as its mis tress a woman who bore his honored name, but filled the home atmosphere with discord. Through her peevish, jealous nature, she overshadowed his life with a “con nubial hell,” and made him to regret that life had ever been bestowed upon him. What a heart of loving kindness he pos sessed—what a brain filled with noble instincts of love. 11l public life his was a prominent career. Failing to find peace at home he gave up love, and was wedded to his pro fession. The woman he loved in youth was torn from his clasp by treachery. He made the woman a wife in name who had sought his love, but even pity was killed by finding her a vixen. When, oh! when, will we have pro gressed to that state of enlightenment that marriage will only be contracted between congenial souls? Oh, soul of noble man lookup, mistaken was the one great step of your life, but peace will be yours in the after-life of eternity. What but pity shall we give the man who has wedded a loved idol, only to find he has mistaken clay tor porcelain. He is bound to her by the laws of our coun try, and doubly so by the laws of his church. He daily sees—however unwill ingly—that his mind is expanding, while hers is becoming more dwarfed —narrow- ing down to one idea, and that idea, dress. Work as steady as he may, guard as he will, he sees his income going to pay for his wife’s style, that “.must be supported.” Kind at heart, affectionate by nature, he can only speak his fears in mildest tones, which fail to convey the weight of the overshadowing doom. Whenthecrashcomes, his honor prompts him to hand over his all to creditors. Now peep we into his home and life. She who has caused his ruin through unwise expenditures, how acts she now? Meets she her honest husband with loving woids of praise? Alas! not in this case; but with bitter reproach and lamentation she bemoans her fate. Wiiat would a true and noble wife have done? Why, in my innermost soul’s depths I feel that she would have stood bv this brave man’sside, “heart to heart, mind to mind, soul to soul ” and hand in hand they would have entered upon a life of patient, toil. Hh cheeiing words and praise in her heart, she would have thanked her flod for the glorious gift of this man’s love. Shall we eondmnn if his love grows less fervent than in the early years of wedded life? Nay, but v\e do feel proud to have known this man, who, while lov ing loss, Ims not lost one particle of his manhood s honor, but, true to his mar riage vow and religious obligations, he tenderly cares for her well-being, and will while mortal life remains lor both. Oh, that woman would learn the great necessity of cultivating alove of insearch into the vast realms of profitable lovt which our libraries so abundantly >itld. Vv'ivt's do not sufficiently realize the fact that one can not read and the other nog V*ct doing so, without a gradual dissim Rarity of interests and tastes growing out of this state of affairs, and, soon, if is too late to remedy the matter in this short earth’s experiences. What is home to a man that reads and reflects but has no intelligent mind to exchange ideas with? Pity fills my soul for all such, be they men or women. How sad to contemplate these married liven, and yet they, are all about us, and will be until marriage ceases to be a lot tery and becomes an important studv, solved only by the laws of mutual at traction—the solid basis of lo ve.
