“Joy to the world, the Lord is come !

Dr. Talmage founded his remarks on the subject : “‘ Husband and Wife in Harmony or Uat of Tune,” Amos, ch. 3, v 3; *‘ Can two walk together except they be agreed ?” He said :—

No, Amos, they cannot. They will be tripping each other up, or pushing each other down Married life, under such cir- cumstances, will be the sounding of perpe- tual warwhoop. Ia this course of sermons on **The Marriage Ring,” I will to-day speak of the mutual duties of husband and wife, preparatory to discourses on their individual duties.

of the child, the shower broke. No tears for her. God gives tears as the summer rain to the parched sou! ; but in all the universe the driest and hottest, the most scorching and consuming thing is a moth- er’s heart if she has neglected her child, when once it is dead. God may forgive her, but she wiil never forgive herself. The memory will sink the eyes deeper into the sockets, and pinch the face, and whiten the hair, and eat up the heart with vultures that will not be satisfied, forever plunging deeper their iron beak. Oh, you wanderers from your home, go back to your duty ! The brightest flowers iu all the earth are those which grow in the garden of a Chris- tian household, clambering over the porch of a Christian home.

I advise you also to cultivate sympathy of oceupation. Sir James Mackintosh, one of the the most eminent and elegant men thet ever lived, while standing at the very height of his eminence, said to a great company of scholars, ‘‘My wife mede me.” The wife ought to be the advising partner in every firm. She ought to be interested in all the losses and gains of shop and+ store. She ought to have a right-—she has ‘a right—to know everything. [f a man goes into a business transaction that he dare not tell his wife of, you may depend that he is on the way either to bankreptecy or moral ruin. There may be some things which he does not wish to trouble his wite with; but if he dare not tell her, he is on the road to discomfitere. On the other hand, the husband ought to be sympathe- 'tie with the wife's occupation. It is no ‘easy thing to keep house. Many a woman ‘that could have endured martyrdom as well as Margaret,the Scotch girl,has actually been |worn out by house management. Thore }are a thousand martyrs of the kitchen. It is very annoying, after the vexations of the day around the stove or the table, or in the |nursery or parlor, to have your husband say, ‘You know nothing about troubles, | you ought to be in the store half an hour.” | Sympathy of occupation! Ifthe husband's | work cover him with ihe soot of the furnace | or the odors of leather or soap factories, let ‘not the wife be easily disgusted at the be- ‘grimed hands er unsavory aroma. Your | gains are ono, syour interests are one, your | losses are one; lay hold of the work of life ‘with both hands. Four hands to fight the | battles; four eyes to watch for the danger; , four shoulders on which to carry the trials. | 1t is a very sad thing when the painter has ,a wife who does not like pictures. It is a very sad thing for a pianist when she has a husband who does not like music, It isa | very sad thing when a wile is not suited unless her husband has what is called a ‘genteel business.’, Sofar as 1 understand a ‘* genteel business,’’ it is something to which a man goes at ten o’clock in the morning, and from which he comes home at two or three o’clock in the afternoon, and gets a large amount of money for doing nothing. That is, I believe, a **gen- teel business’ ; and there has been many a wife who has made the mistake of not being satisfied until the husbaad has given up the tanning of the hides, or the turning of the bannisters, or the building of the walls, and put himself in circles where he has nothing to do but smoke cigars and drink wine, and get himself into habits that upset him, going down in the maelstrom, taking his wife and children with him, There are a good many trains ronning from earth to destruction. They start all the hours of the day, and all the hours of the night. There are the freight trains ; they 'go very slowly and very heavily ; and there are the accommodation trains going on toward destruction, and they stop very often, and let a man get out when he wants to. But genteel idleness is aa. express train: Satan is the stoker, and Death is

the engineer ; and though one may come out in front of it, and swing tho red flag of “danger,” or the lantern of God's Word,

it makes just one shot into perdition, com- ing down the embankmont with a shout and a wail and «a shriek—crash, crash ! There are two classes of people eure of destruction : first, those who haye nothing to do ; secondly, those who have something to do, but are too lazy or too proud to do it. ;

I have one more word of advice to give to those who would havea happy home, and that is, let love preside init. When your behavior in the domestic circle be- comes a mere matter of calculation ; when the caress you give is merely the result of deliberate study of the position you occupy, happiness lies stark dead on the hearth- stone. When the husband’s position as head of the household is maintained by loudness of voice, by strength of arm, by fire of temper, the republic of domestic bliss has become a despotism that neither God nor man will abide, Oh, ye who promised to love each other at the altar, how dare you commit perjury? Let no shadow of suspicion come on your aftec- tion. It is easier to kill that flower than it is to make it live again. The blast from hell that puts out that light, leaves you in the blackness of darkness forever.

Here are a man and wife; they agree in nothing else, but they agree they will have ahome. They will have a splendid house, they will have ahome. Architects make the plan, and the mechanics execute it; the house to cost one hundred thousand dollars. It is done. The carpets are spread ; lights are hoisted; curtains are hung; cards of in- vitation sent out, The horses in gold. plated harness prance at the gate; guests come in and take their places; the flute sounds; the dancers go up and down; and with one grand whirl the wealth and the fashion and the mirth of the great town wheel amidst the pictured walls. But this is happiness. Float it on the smoking ‘viands, sound it in the music, whirl it in the dance, cast it on the show of sculpture, sound it up the brilliant stairway, flash it to chandeliers ! Happiness, indeed! Let us | build on the parlor floors a throne to happiness! Let all the guests, when come in, bring their flowers and pearls and diamonds, and throw them on this pyramid, and let it be athrone, and then let happi-

levati f the race make it a mere and wept over the coffin ; neighbors came ness the queen, mount the throne, and we Saami saiiaiien — exchange of in, and the moment they saw the still face will stand around, and, all chalices lifted,
