Think of the hopes that are drowned in the;

Think of the danger to body and soul ;
Think of sad lives once as pure as the snow ;
Look at them now and at once answer ‘‘No.”’

Driving to ruin both body and soul;

Bee 3 L > . ot 3a Rules for Husbands.
Don’t think when you have won a wife that you have got, also, a slave.
Don’t think that your wife has less feeling thar your sweetheart. Her relationship to you is simply*ckanged—not her nature.
Don’t think that you can dispense with all
the little civilisies cf life towards her on marriage. She appreciates these things quite
as much as other women.
Don’t be gruff and rude at home. Had you been that sort of fellow before marriage, the probabilities are that you would be sewing on your battons still. Don’t make your wife feel incumbent on you by giving her grudging- ly. Whatshe needs give as cheerfully as if it were a pleasure for you todoso, She will feel much better, and so will you.
Don’t meddle with the affairs of the house under her charge.- You have no more right to be poking your nose into the kitchen than she has to walk into your place of business, and give your directions to your employes.
Don’t tind fault with her extrvagance in ribbons, &¢., while you waste money on cigars, tobacco, whisky, &e.
Don’t leave your wife at bome to nurse the children on the score of economy, while you go to theatres and spend money at billiards.
Don't bolt your supper, and then hurry off to spend your evenings away from your wife Before marriage you couldn’t spend your even- ings enough with her.
Von’t prowl about till midnight, wasting your time in culpable idleness, leaving your wife lonely at home to brood over your neglect and her dissapointment.
Dou’t think that the woman you have solemnly promised to ‘‘love, cherish, and pro- tect” becomes a servant for you as her part of the contract.
Don’t think that board and clothes are sutti- sient for all that a wife does for you.
Don’t expect a wife to love and honor you if you prove to be a brute, and unworthy of her love and lionor.
Don’t caress your wife in public, and then snarl and grow] at her when you are in private. ‘fbis proves that you are a hypocrite. .
Don’t wonder that your wile is not as cheer. fal as she used to be when she labors from early morn till late at night to ponder to the comfort and caprice of a selfish pig who has not soul enough to appreeiate her.

Some English lawyers are in search of heirs for the estate of the Patricks, of Suf- folk, England. Advertisements first ap- peared on the subject forty years ago in English and American newspapers. ‘They were not successful. So ten years ago at- tention was again called to the matter, with the additional statement that the property had immensely increased in value. Still no claimants came forward. Again, in Avril, 1878, the advertisement was repeated and the property set down at $80,000,000. Even then little notice was taken of it, and the lawyers were just about to have it with- drawa when one Henry Patrick, of New York, theught he would try his luck as an heir. He accordingly employed counsel to investigate his genealogical registers, and it was found that a certain John Patrick hved in Suffolk, "rland, and was an officer and adherent of vuliver Cromwell. In 1700a son jeft England and, it is said, has been cor- rectly an carefully traced to Newfoundland, thence to Boston, Mass., then Tollington, then Marlboro, thea to Boston, and finally took a sloop and came to Stroudwater, where he married Elizabeth Hawkins, and settled down, and afterwards died there. This sop, who married late in life, October 6, 1732, had several children. One married Tristram Stevens, one William Tate, one a miss Mac- dougal, one a Mr. Paine. His son Charles settled in Gorham, and married Elizabeth Fickett. He CharleS h's son, was a mason by trade, and plastered the first house built in | Gorham, that ef Deacon Thomas MeClannin. | He died in 1830 at the ace of eighty six, leav- ing many descendants, one of whom, William Patrick, died at Cape Elizabeth. Ii there are auy of his family in Canada, it would be worth their while to trace ack their descent for a few generations.

[t is doubtful if the new elections will give Prince Bismarck a large majority.
General Manteuffel has declined the gov- ernorship of Alsace-Lorfaine.
Lieutenant-Governor Canchon is expected in Quebec in about a fortnight. Snow fell on Saturday in England and the northern parts of the United Kingdom. The Queen of Portugal has the pleurisy. She is now improving, but is still weak. Last year 714 bears were killed in New Brunswick, and $2,142 was paid in bounties, Sixteen loaves of bread sell for a collar at Emerson, Manitoba.

A despatch from Rome says Queen Vie-
‘toria will probably visit the King and Queen
of Italy at Monza.
A despatch from Rome says it is possible Cardinal Hohenlohe will go to Berlin on a confidential mission.
A St. Petersburg dispatch says nine persona were killed sand 25 injured by an accident to the mail train running to Moscow.
A mineral spring, believed to contain great health-giving properties, has been discovered in the Township of Iona, Elgin Co,, Ont.
The Windsor (N. 8.) Mail urges the far- inervs of the Maritime Provinces to go in more extensively for stock-raising, in order to be m a positien to avail themselves of the English cattle trade.
All the men required for the Mounted Po- lice have been recruited, and will be des- patched as soon as navigation opens. They will muster in ‘Toronto, and the horses will be purchased in Ontario.
We wonder how far our neighbors across the lines will really go. The women’s walking match in New York was a disgrace ful exhibition, and now an enterprisin Gothamite is to drink one thousand ha pint glasses of lager beer, in one thousand quarter hours, for a purse of one thousand dollars. A Mr. Linden has also issued a challenge through the New York press for a ‘‘sleeping match.”
The walking match between McKay and Ross, in St. John, terminated in an easy victory for McKay. The finish was, how- ever, aS unSatisfactery as the several other matches that have taken place there. Ross broke down in the legs after being 19 hours out of the 24 on the track. McKay, how- ever, walked out the balance of the time, and at the finish had covered nearly 90 miles. From the time Ross vanished from the track to the expiration of the 24 hours, McKay made 16 miles.
Mr. Haggert, the wellknown Brompton manufacturer, who cannot be accused of Tory- ism, writes to the Brompton ‘*Times” as fol- lows :—‘‘ Lam in hepe that the new tariff will wultiply industries hitherto unknown in Can- ada, and that they will not only give employ - ment to the unemployed, but that they wall pay all their obligations, and that the two great producers of wealth in our country, the farmers and manufacturing interests, are so closely identified one with the other. that those who are now endeavouring to teach the country will soon be heartily ashamed of the position they seem to have taken.”
The Galatea, steam transport, was to leave Woolwich about a week ago with about 100 tons of ammunition, 100 wagons and a large quantity of provisions and camp equipments for Natal. She was selected especially on ac- count of her large capacity for cargo, all her decks below being devoted to storage. A few officers, it was thought, might go with her, but the chief purpose of the voyage was to convey supplies of food and material to the army, made necessary owing to the loss of the stores captured at {fsandula. Various esti- nates have been made as to the value of these stores, but the Commissiarat and the ordnance officiais at Pietermaritzburg are stated to have assessed them at nearly £150,000. It was ex- pected that the Galatea would reach Natal on the Istof May.
Mr. Donald G. Mitchell was cured of his family tendency to consumption in a curious way. He had a very severe cough when he started to cross from the English shore to the Island of Jersey. ‘‘There was no steamer,” he says, “‘aud I had to goona twenty-ton fishing smack. There was a great storm, and for thirty hours we were on the English Channel in the ronghest weather. I was very sick, and lay fora Jong time on deck covered with a tarpaulin and holding to a mast, expecting every moment to be washed overboard, and not caring much, 1 was. Finally, we reached Jersey, and, strange to say, iny cough dis- appeared. It had been chronic.
bdtpesttoandssets The Death-rate of
Our country is getting to be fearfully al- arming, the average of life being lessened every year, without any reasonable cause, death resulting generally from the most in- significant origin. At this season of the year, especially, a cold* is such a common thing that in -he hurry of every day life we are apt to overlook the dangers attending it and often find. too late, that a Fever or Lung trouble has alweady set in. Thou- sands lose their lives in this way every win- ter, while had Bosshee’s German Syrup been taken, a cure would have resulted, and a large bill from a doctor been avoided. For all diseases of the Throat and Lungs, Bos- ’ chee’ German Syrup has proven itself to be the greatest discovery of its kind in medi- cine. Every Druggist in this country will tell you of its wonderful effect. Over 950,- 000 bottles sold last year without a single
failuro known.
