SATISFIED WITH HIS WIFE.

AFTER THIRTY-SIX YEARS. America has also a perfect wife. She is Mrs Alfred A. Wright, a Canadian by birth, whose husband is president of the J. A. Coates and Co. needleimporting house. The couple live at Orange, New Jersey, and Mr Wright has given his wife a public character for perfection, in answer to a remark made by Judge Thomas, of Kansas City, while trying a case in his court, that ‘There is no such thing as a perfect wife.” Mr Wright says: u \ have had one wife for thirty-six years, and I wouldn’t change, her in the least if I could. In all these years she has been the ideal wife, and has' always been the source of my inspiration and my comfort in. times of trouble. I woudirt take £2,000,000 for her, nor give 5d for another. When for a time we had had luck she did her own washing, with just as sweet a temper and as graciouslv -as she had managed our fi'ie * s home.”
