Don't Nag Each Other.

Young Wives and husbands cannot be too strongiy rem'aded of the probable shipwreek they will make of their hap- piness.if they yield to -that il-temper which Gxpresses itself in discourtesy, Want ~ of” compliance, unnecéssury Opposition and above al!, that mos! umusement of ‘* nagging’

tiundreds of households have gone wrong from the mere want »of checking im time the habit anpoying as 4 relief to a memen- tary feeling of irritation or discom/ort. The wife who gets into the wayof con- tradieting, or “checking” her husband, of opposing him ino small things snd standing out in large ones, the husband who is sneeriag, tempestuous, tyran- . fauit-fio ling,—perhaps beither side knowing the whole extent of its folly, but just giving way to itas more easy than to fight and conquer it—these young people’ afe) doing their best to dig the grave of their married peace ; and some day, poor, fainting little love will fallinto it stark . and .p!umeless, and will pever rite tollife in.

The following story isptold of a undergraduate on Trioi'y about forty years backs One night, being engaged t> ao in-college supper, he aupfort- unately did not reach the gate till five minutes*past ten: (After tem no out- college qaan couldenter, nor could any ~ja@ollege men go oat.)
