When an earnest, energetic, hard working
young fellow, who is iu search of a wife,
sees this, he fears and hesitates, refuses to
marry at all, perhaps, and bo does only
half the good world—simply because he
has no nolion of fulfilling the homely but
truthful adage which tells of placing a
man’s nose continually upon a grindstone.
We commend the subject to the regards
of our young women readers. Let them
cultivate the domestic virtues—make
themselves true women—know a woman’s
duties—cherish their hands less and th Hl
intellect more—and their lot will be hap
pier and better. Mote than this, they
will fin-1 that there are males in the world
for them and those worth having.
Will not mothers bring the true mode
of life before their daughters in the light
in which it ought to be shown? which
is nothing more than that of common
sense.
This is the rarest of virtues; more valua
iila because there is comparatively little to
be found.
