pieces were sold with the autograph of ‘‘Mary,” then an aged lady, attached, and go great was the demand that oyer £6O was raised from the stocking, for the funds e i the Old South Church. Happiness in Slarriaae. Mrs Mary M. Dyer, of New York, who has entered upon her tenth matrimonial venture, says: ‘‘Happiness in marriage is a question of understanding concessions a give and take. If you haven t any children of your own, adopt some. I an> sorry I didn’t adopt more than two. Let a husband have his own way, or think he is having it. If you have to use blind bridles, a curb bit and spurs, you can make him used to them so they come natural. He needs petting and coaxing, too, and occasional lumps of sugar. Everybody knows the main thing to make a man fond of his home is good cooking, neatness and comfort, and to know his wife isn’t gadding about. A wife should avoid gossipv women, who make most of the trouble'in life. I never topic much interest in the suffrage, but if other 'women want the vote, let em have,it. In© wise ones will side with theii’ husbands in politics, anyhow. i es, most _ men are good. Some, of course, are rather like mules, but if a wife has patience and takes pains, she can train ’em right. ’
