THE KIND OF MAN TO MARRY.

Let us look at another case. A young man, receiving a small salary, determines to put aside each week a ! certain sum as a foundation for the pleasant homo he some time hopes to have. It forces him to make many sacrifices; he eschews jewellery and canes, sodawatei- and cigars, and carries an unperfumed handkerchief. When in this semi rustic plight, and wearing a suit (perfectly preserved) two seasons old, he calls on a maiden whose company he desiivs, she looks with scorn at the dowdy dress, and is suddenly otherwise engaged. Discouraging as this may be, he plods on in the chosen path, and finally lays his heart before a quiet maiden who has read : " I sec a man : I do not sec his shabby dress, I see him in his manliness ; I see his axe, 1 see his spade, I see a man that God has made. If such a man before you stand, Give him your heart give him your hand. And thank your Master for such men ; They uiake this old earth youngagain The beginning of their wedded life is devoid of much of the splendor that attends the other pair, but to them is no rude awakening of misery and woe. Their affection having never l>een triiled away, but ivser\ ed, each tor tlie other, proves a constant joy and over present delight.
