Hew to Avoid a Bad Husband.
1. Never marry for wealth. A wo- t
man's life c.innistetfi not in thv thing* I
she posK’muli, fSjSI
2. Never Htftrry a f<»p who stnrfi
about dandy-llke, in his gloves and
ruflW, with a silver cane and rings
on his lingers. Beware I There is a
trap.
3. Never marry a niggard, close fis
ted, mean, sordid wretch, tvho saves
every penny, or spends it grudgingly.
Take care lest lie stint you to death.
4. Never marry a stranger, whose
character is not known or tested.—
Sonic females jump right into the flfti
with t heir eyes wide open. ;
5. Never mttrry it jnope or a drone,
one who drawls ami draggles through
life, one foot ftlU‘l' iuiotfct-r, and lets
tlii-'gs take tltcir own course.
ii. Never marry a man who treats
his mother or sister unkindly or in
differently. Such treatment is a sure
indication of a mean and wicked
man.
7. Never on tiny account marry a
gambler, a profane person one whom
the le.ist speaks lightly of a God or re
ligion. Such a man can never make a
good husband. '
8. Never marry n sloven, a matt
who is negligent of his person or his
dress, or is filthy in his habits. The
external appearance is an index to the
hen rt.
0. Shun the rake as a snake, a viper
a very demon.
10. Finally, never marry a man
who is addicted to the use of ardent
spirits. Depend upon it, you are bet
ter off alone, than yott would lie tied
to a man whose bread', is poltinted,
and whose vitals are being gnawed
out by alchohol. ' ' ■
