No woman ever yet loved a weak mau ; she feels only a contemptuous pity, humiliating to her, aud degrad- ing tohim. Next to strength, comes devotion to his wife, wituout which no hus- band can be a model ; I think few men realize how much a woman lives in her affection. What to him is only an incident, may be of para- mount importance to her. "Man's love is of man's life a thing apart, Tis woman's whole existence." She places her life happiness in bis hands, and the model husband will not only love his wife devotedly, but will tell her so, and by his actions let the whole world know it. Again the model husband will not insist that his wife shall see the world through his spectacles. The world may ap- pear blue to him, but he does not wish it to be ceruliau-tiute- d to her He recoguizes the fact that she is an independent human being and allows Iter to form her own friendships and association, without inteference from him. It is not necessary that a man should be brilliaut or even suc-cesss- ul to serve as a model, for the mostsuccessful men are not the best uieu. A wife never loves her husband better for his successes, although she feels a pride in them which no one else can. The model husband will be as gen- erous to his wife in the matter of spending-moue- y as his means will permit. He will not subject her to the mortification of asking for money, neither give it to her with the air of one bestowing alms; rather will he ascertain where her purse is kept and see that it is well.supplied. However, if he that she is extravagant be- yond his means, he does uot hesitate to tell her so, and if she will not heed his gentle remonstrauce, but by her thoughtless or reckless expenditure is imperiling the family, he can, and does, speak in the imperative mood, aud saves her from herself. Many a ma 'i has been drawn into the vortix of dnaucial ruiu because he had not the courage and firmness to say "must" or "must not" to his wife. The model husband, however, is in no sense of the word, a tyrant. The instances in which a man has to as sert his deviuely bestowed ttupre- - macy, are very rare, aud are doubt- less more painful to him than to her. But If these emergences do arise, he dare not shirk his responsibility. Th9 hat of the great creator, Issued in Ediu, that the man should be the head of the family, is irrevocable, and was not intended for Adam and Eve alone, but for mankind, through- out all the centuries. But the very fact that he has the tower aud right to rule, makes him all the more gen-il- e. The iron baud is hidden by the glove of velvet, and the wife really loves and honors the hut-bau- more than it he resigned his supremacy to her, thereby burdening her with cares and responsibilities beyond her strength. It is to me an impenetrable mystery why a woman should desire to ruie her husband. The model husbaud will see teat hi wife has her share in the pleasures aud recreations of life, a far as lies in his power to do so. He will him- self escort her to places of entertain ment aud always show a proper so- licitude for her pleaaqre and Liuprove-meu- t. In the many emergeucie", incident to familv life, a man shows his true character. If the cook leaves, he will assist iu the culinary department; he will lay aside his paper if necessary aud rock the cradle, and iu short, will uot consider it derogatory to his dignity to assist his wife in anything which comes to hand. After all, trilles make up the sum of human existence. Our happiness or unhap-piues- s depends largely upon small, commonplace affairs. Aud the man, who iu every relation of life is strong, aud true and faithful, who never for-lre- ts that he Is a lover as well as a hus band, may safely be pronouueed a model husbaud, and the woman wuo pos-tesse- s one is happy indeed. Tennessee. May be Fouud in the Iludest Cabin. Editor of the Columbia Herald: For several weeks through the col umns of our valuable paper. "Ihe Columbia Herald" there has been extended to the ladies, an invitation to express their ideas In regard to "A Model Husband." mis 01 course at- tracted every lady's eye and each week she eagerly scans the articles already published, to see ir any one thoroughly coincides with her ideal. The married lady, (if happily mar ried) may describe her uusoana as this combination of good traits mak-im- r him a person whom any gentle man should imitate. If she has not realized fully the bright castles of her girlhood's dreams, then sne wuu wo- manly wisdom lets silence rule, and if she can say nothing for him, says nothing against him. But I unmar- ried thiuk, aud think long and earn estly as to the many essentials uec- - easarv in my mind to make this model husband. We all know that a model is a thing which bears imita- tion, a person whom any one would do well to follow. As my Ideal rises before me l see a person iuu 01 morality, dignity, courage, and energy, with a deep and earnest love and veneration ior nis amoitious mother. Open in all of his dealings, s.eady, upright, aud last and most important, religious aua temperate. One wiio would scorn to spend his Sabbath mornings in a discussion ou politics, news, etc , instead of attend- ing church. Oh! how great is my es- teem for the mau, s'ngle or married, who is seen regularly at service in stead of idling his hours away in ir- religious company where naught is learned but gossip. Oue who would disdain the idea of entering a saloon and would dash a proffered glass from the pretended friend's baud. Who would "Yield not to temptation Bad language disdain tiods name hold in reverence Nor take it in vain." One who holds sacred and defends the weaker sex, ne'er ceasing to re- member that his mother was a wo- man. Ah! how many forget this? As neatness always commands re spect this is indeed a necessary char- acteristic. 80 many meu appear dif- ferently even to a casual observer, ifter marriage in t:-.i- s respect. iuey f rget, it e -, how they so ight their sweetheart's eye of approval at their new suit, t'ie I itest tie aud their mo-i- t styli-- h appearance. How wronir! Why not cultivate instead of casting off this gem, and please the wife as well as the fastidious sweet- - heart. He must or should by all means keep out of debt, for from observa- tion it seems to me that next to financial embarrassments do more to wreck the happiness of a family thau anything else. Now so.ue may say that discriptlon could never be realized, but if a man possesses even oue noble, moral trait, it would seem a natural consequence to add to this gem each day increas- ing the value of his character, which should be more to any oue than the accumulated wealth of earth's varl-flou- n inillmnarle. It is much -- easier to demand that others shall reach a high standard than to compel ourselves to do the same, but in conclusion I must con- fess that a lady has a great deal to do with the way the gentlemen conduct themselves, and it is just as necessary for the young lady of to-di-y to fit hei -- self for gracing some home as a model wife. And to make a model hus- baud, I think this altogether essen- tial, for, how can there be a model husband if there is a frowning, dis- agreeable, and mean wife? Let her be the appreciative companion of his studies and wisht s, tLe graceful, neat and hospitable hostess of his friends, and guests, and the wise and faithful helpmeet in the trials, vicissitudes and successes of his busy life. Even though the home should be the rudest cabin, if within it dwell a model husband aud a model wife, its glory would be more resplendant, its joys far more sincere than a royal palace, wherein live an ill mated, uncongenial couj.le. - Verona. A Curtain Lecture. Editor of the Columbia Herald: This is a subject of vital im- portance, and I wish to express my ideas in as few woids as possible. 1 do not propose to write as interesting a letter perhaps as some ; but this will be submitted to the judgment of the committee more competent to judge than myself; but I think I have suf- ficient experience in the married life, to express my views on such an im- portant subject. The Bible says: "Husband's Jove your wives, and be not bitter against them. As Christ loved the church aud gave himself for it, so ought the husbaud to love his wife." Thus you see no man can be a model husband unless he is fashioned after the Divine model; as enumerated in the word of God.- - Yes he will arise on the first day of the week and make all neeessary arauge-men- ts for himself and help his beloved wife to prepare their little bright-eye- d children for Sunday-schoo- l; and got? iu himself a d thereby seta a good example bet ore those precious jewels which God has given them. He also remembers his promise wheu lie goes to town, and Bays, dear wife I'll be back early; and does not keep his poor tired wife anxiously awaiting his return, and when he does come in, his breath smells more like a whisky barrel, than like the pleasaut odor of a refined gentleman. Instead of spending his money for intoxicat- ing drinks, be brings home to bis wife some nice unexpected pieseut, perhaps she can keep iu after years, in sweet remeinberance of her honored husband. His children gladly wel comes him. He meets them with a smile and perhaps a kiss. And when his wife wishes to visit relatives ana friends he does not say, you are al ways goue; where nextr But iur-nish- es her with some suitable con veyance, and if convenient accompa nies her. And when he conies m to dinner after laboring to sustain his wife and children, he does not come in with a frown and scold because his wife fails to have everything Buited to bis taste. He therefore remembers to always eat what is set before him aud ask no question, when he is well assured li s faithful wife dees the best she can. He never tires waiting on his wife; as he d to do in her gir.hoo 1 days; he still tries to make her as pleasant a he did then. If he d - this he cann t fail to be a model husba id. Yes we want a man to love us nud cherish us as he does his own flesh, and one that we will always love; aud one that every one else loves, aud one that God loves, and always will. A noble hearted, pious husband; one that loves his children aud re- members to provoke them not to auger lest they be discouraged. A man with a noble generous heart, And his wife's burdens hears a part, Together as thev climb life's rugged hill, One that loves her now aud always will. Then dear Editor of the Herald I think it now my time' To write on the model husband And write it part iu rhyme. The wivea then must be faithful And always bear in mind. That to have a loving husband She must be ever true and kind. The wivea then must be ehearful And not meet hi.n with a pout And have her husband troubled so Lie dois'nt know what he's about. The husband mu'sut be jealous But must help getting mad if he can When he see a his wife a talking With another man.

entwine the tendrils of her affections.No woman ever yet loved a weakmau ; she feels only a contemptuouspity, humiliating to her, aud degrad-ing tohim.

Next to strength, comes devotionto his wife, wituout which no hus-band can be a model ; I think fewmen realize how much a woman livesin her affection. What to him isonly an incident, may be of para-mount importance to her."Man's love is of man's life a thing

apart,Tis woman's whole existence."

She places her life happiness in bishands, and the model husband willnot only love his wife devotedly, butwill tell her so, and by his actions letthe whole world know it. Again themodel husband will not insist thathis wife shall see the world throughhis spectacles. The world may ap-pear blue to him, but he does notwish it to be ceruliau-tiute- d to herHe recoguizes the fact that she is anindependent human being and allowsIter to form her own friendships andassociation, without inteferencefrom him. It is not necessary that aman should be brilliaut or even suc-cesss- ul

to serve as a model, for themostsuccessful men are not the bestuieu. A wife never loves her husbandbetter for his successes, although shefeels a pride in them which no oneelse can.

The model husband will be as gen-erous to his wife in the matter ofspending-moue- y as his means willpermit. He will not subject her tothe mortification of asking for money,neither give it to her with the air ofone bestowing alms; rather will heascertain where her purse is kept andsee that it is well.supplied. However,if he that she is extravagant be-

yond his means, he does uot hesitateto tell her so, and if she will not heedhis gentle remonstrauce, but by herthoughtless or reckless expenditureis imperiling the family, he can, anddoes, speak in the imperative mood,aud saves her from herself. Many ama 'i has been drawn into the vortixof dnaucial ruiu because he had notthe courage and firmness to say"must" or "must not" to his wife.

The model husband, however, is inno sense of the word, a tyrant. Theinstances in which a man has to assert his deviuely bestowed ttupre- -macy, are very rare, aud are doubt-less more painful to him than to her.But If these emergences do arise, hedare not shirk his responsibility. Th9hat of the great creator, Issued inEdiu, that the man should be thehead of the family, is irrevocable,and was not intended for Adam andEve alone, but for mankind, through-out all the centuries. But the veryfact that he has the tower aud rightto rule, makes him all the more gen-il- e.

The iron baud is hidden by theglove of velvet, and the wife reallyloves and honors the hut-bau- morethan it he resigned his supremacy toher, thereby burdening her withcares and responsibilities beyond herstrength. It is to me an impenetrablemystery why a woman should desireto ruie her husband.

The model husbaud will see teathi wife has her share in the pleasuresaud recreations of life, a far as liesin his power to do so. He will him-self escort her to places of entertainment aud always show a proper so-

licitude for her pleaaqre and Liuprove-meu- t.

In the many emergeucie", incidentto familv life, a man shows his truecharacter. If the cook leaves, he willassist iu the culinary department; hewill lay aside his paper if necessaryaud rock the cradle, and iu short,will uot consider it derogatory to hisdignity to assist his wife in anythingwhich comes to hand. After all,trilles make up the sum of humanexistence. Our happiness or unhap-piues- s

depends largely upon small,commonplace affairs. Aud the man,who iu every relation of life is strong,aud true and faithful, who never for-lre- ts

that he Is a lover as well as a husband, may safely be pronouueed amodel husbaud, and the woman wuopos-tesse- s one is happy indeed.

May be Fouud in the Iludest Cabin.Editor of the Columbia Herald:

For several weeks through the columns of our valuable paper. "IheColumbia Herald" there has beenextended to the ladies, an invitationto express their ideas In regard to "AModel Husband." mis 01 course at-tracted every lady's eye and eachweek she eagerly scans the articlesalready published, to see ir any onethoroughly coincides with her ideal.The married lady, (if happily married) may describe her uusoana asthis combination of good traits mak-im- r

him a person whom any gentleman should imitate. If she has notrealized fully the bright castles of hergirlhood's dreams, then sne wuu wo-manly wisdom lets silence rule, andif she can say nothing for him, saysnothing against him. But I unmar-ried thiuk, aud think long and earnestly as to the many essentials uec- -easarv in my mind to make thismodel husband. We all know that amodel is a thing which bears imita-tion, a person whom any one woulddo well to follow. As my Ideal risesbefore me l see a person iuu 01morality, dignity, courage, andenergy, with a deep and earnest loveand veneration ior nis amoitiousmother. Open in all of his dealings,s.eady, upright, aud last and mostimportant, religious aua temperate.One wiio would scorn to spend hisSabbath mornings in a discussion oupolitics, news, etc , instead of attend-ing church. Oh! how great is my es-

teem for the mau, s'ngle or married,who is seen regularly at service instead of idling his hours away in ir-

religious company where naught islearned but gossip. Oue who woulddisdain the idea of entering a saloonand would dash a proffered glass fromthe pretended friend's baud. Whowould

"Yield not to temptationBad language disdaintiods name hold in reverenceNor take it in vain."

One who holds sacred and defendsthe weaker sex, ne'er ceasing to re-

member that his mother was a wo-man. Ah! how many forget this?

As neatness always commands respect this is indeed a necessary char-acteristic. 80 many meu appear dif-ferently even to a casual observer,ifter marriage in t:-.i- s respect. iuey

f rget, it e -, how they so ighttheir sweetheart's eye of approval attheir new suit, t'ie I itest tie aud theirmo-i- t styli-- h appearance. Howwronir! Why not cultivate insteadof casting off this gem, and please thewife as well as the fastidious sweet--heart.

He must or should by all meanskeep out of debt, for from observa-tion it seems to me that next to

financial embarrassmentsdo more to wreck the happiness of afamily thau anything else.

Now so.ue may say that discriptloncould never be realized, but if a manpossesses even oue noble, moral trait,it would seem a natural consequenceto add to this gem each day increas-ing the value of his character, whichshould be more to any oue than theaccumulated wealth of earth's varl-flou- n

inillmnarle.It is much -- easier to demand that

others shall reach a high standardthan to compel ourselves to do thesame, but in conclusion I must con-fess that a lady has a great deal to dowith the way the gentlemen conductthemselves, and it is just as necessaryfor the young lady of to-di-y to fit hei --

self for gracing some home as a modelwife. And to make a model hus-baud, I think this altogether essen-tial, for, how can there be a modelhusband if there is a frowning, dis-agreeable, and mean wife? Let herbe the appreciative companion of hisstudies and wisht s, tLe graceful, neatand hospitable hostess of his friends,and guests, and the wise and faithfulhelpmeet in the trials, vicissitudesand successes of his busy life.

Even though the home should bethe rudest cabin, if within it dwell amodel husband aud a model wife, itsglory would be more resplendant, itsjoys far more sincere than a royalpalace, wherein live an ill mated,uncongenial couj.le. - Verona.

A Curtain Lecture.Editor of the Columbia Herald:

This is a subject of vital im-portance, and I wish to express myideas in as few woids as possible. 1do not propose to write as interestinga letter perhaps as some ; but this willbe submitted to the judgment of thecommittee more competent to judgethan myself; but I think I have suf-ficient experience in the married life,to express my views on such an im-portant subject. The Bible says:"Husband's Jove your wives, and benot bitter against them. As Christloved the church aud gave himselffor it, so ought the husbaud to lovehis wife." Thus you see no man canbe a model husband unless he isfashioned after the Divine model; asenumerated in the word of God.- - Yeshe will arise on the first day of theweek and make all neeessary arauge-men- ts

for himself and help his belovedwife to prepare their little bright-eye- d

children for Sunday-schoo- l; and got?iu himself a d thereby seta a goodexample bet ore those precious jewelswhich God has given them. He alsoremembers his promise wheu lie goesto town, and Bays, dear wife I'll beback early; and does not keep hispoor tired wife anxiously awaitinghis return, and when he does comein, his breath smells more like awhisky barrel, than like the pleasautodor of a refined gentleman. Insteadof spending his money for intoxicat-ing drinks, be brings home to biswife some nice unexpected pieseut,perhaps she can keep iu after years,in sweet remeinberance of her honoredhusband. His children gladly welcomes him. He meets them with asmile and perhaps a kiss. And whenhis wife wishes to visit relatives anafriends he does not say, you are always goue; where nextr But iur-nish- es

her with some suitable conveyance, and if convenient accompanies her. And when he conies m todinner after laboring to sustain hiswife and children, he does not comein with a frown and scold because hiswife fails to have everything Buitedto bis taste. He therefore remembersto always eat what is set beforehim aud ask no question, when he iswell assured li s faithful wife deesthe best she can. He never tireswaiting on his wife; as he d to doin her gir.hoo 1 days; he still tries tomake her as pleasant a he did then.If he d - this he cann t fail to be amodel husba id. Yes we want a manto love us nud cherish us as he doeshis own flesh, and one that we willalways love; aud one that every oneelse loves, aud one that God loves,and always will.

A noble hearted, pious husband;one that loves his children aud re-

members to provoke them not toauger lest they be discouraged.A man with a noble generous heart,And his wife's burdens hears a part,Together as thev climb life's rugged hill,One that loves her now aud always will.

Then dear Editor of the HeraldI think it now my time'To write on the model husbandAnd write it part iu rhyme.

The wivea then must be faithfulAnd always bear in mind.That to have a loving husbandShe must be ever true and kind.The wivea then must be ehearfulAnd not meet hi.n with a poutAnd have her husband troubled soLie dois'nt know what he's about.The husband mu'sut be jealousBut must help getting mad if he canWhen he see a his wife a talkingWith another man.His gait's ho must always put upH is Tenet s Jin repairThat when lie turns bis boraea outThey can't go every, where.
