It was 'in lvaio that his wife and children looked into that face for sunshine, or listened to bis words for tones of cheerfulness. 'Take that home with you, dear." Mrs. Lewis was already repenting this suggestion, made on the moment's im pulse. Her husband was sensitive to a fault. He could not bear even an im plied censure from his wife. And so she had learned to be very guarded jn this particular. ' r Take that borne with yo, dear 1 Ah me 1. 1 wish the words had not been ftnnlrnn. Thsrft will ' be darker clouds now, and gracious knows they were dark enough beiore. Why cant Mr. Lewis leave his cares and business behind him, and let us see the oH, pleasant, smiling face again. I thought this morning that be bad forgotten how to smile ; but I see that be can smile, it he tries. Ah I why don't be ry at home Y : -jm So Mrs. Lewis talked to herself, as she moved -along by the side of her husband, who had not spoken a word since her reply to his question, "Take what home ?" Block after block was passed, and street after street was crossed, and still there was silence between them. "Of course," said Mrs. Lewis, speaking in her thoughts. "Of coarse he is offend ed. He won't bear a word from me. I might have known, beforehand, that talking out in this way would only make things worse. Oh I dear I I'm getting out of all Heart." Mrs. Lewis almost started at the Bound of her husband's voice, breaking, unex- i : i iij . . softened fTk,vuVi """" f- 'A " ""v I toward her, andraking into shyly upturned face. : "It would send warmth in d radiance through the whole house,', said Mrs. Lewis, her tones all a-tremble with-feeling.

"It did not seem to require much ef fort just now," said MrB. Lewis, glancing up at her husband with something of archness in her look. Again a shadow dropped, down upon the face of Mr. Lewis, .which was again partly turned away, and again be walked on in silence. "He is so sensitive I" Mrs. Lewis said to herself, the shadow on ber husband's face darkening over her own. "I have to be as careful of myself as if talking to a spoiled child." t No, it did not require moch effort on the part of Mr. Lewis toi smile as he Sassed a few words, lightly with Mr. Id wards. The remark of j)is wife had net really displeased him;! it bad only set him to thinking. Aftef remaining gravely silent because he was undergo- ihg a brief; eelf-examinatiou,- Mn Lewis said: - . "Yon thought the smile given to Mrj Edwards came easily enough r "It did hot seem to reqairo an effort," j replied Mrs. Lewis. "No, not mucir-effort was required, said Mr. Lewis. His tones were slightly depressed .: "But this must be taken into the account ; my mind was in a certain state of excitement, or actiyityi that re pressed' sober feeli ngs, and-made , smiling an easyhing.

Mr. Lewis spoke with a tender - "iJut tbe eoberaafaac-Bht from yours often er than yott rmagine, my hus band," replied Mrs. Lewis. . "Are you certain of tbat Caddy ?" "Very certain.

Will came and stood by5 his chair, answering in lively tones bis questions, while Mary, older by a few years than the rest, ; lean'ed against her father's shoulder, and laid her white hand softly upon his head, smoothing back tho dark hair, just showing a little frost, from his broad manly temples. A pleasant group was this for, the eyes of Mrs. Lewis, as she came forth from ber chamber to the sitting room, where she had gone to Jay off her bonnet and shawl, and change her dress. Well did her- husband understand the meaning look she gave him; and warmly did ber heart respond to the smile be threw back upon her. "Words fitly spoken are like apples of gold in pictures of silver," said Mr. Low is, speaking to hor as she came in. "What do you mean by that ?" asked Mary, looking curiously into her father's face. " r'jT ' ' ' "Mother understands," replied Mr. Lewis, smiling tenderly upon vhis: wife. "Something pleasant must have jhap pened " said Mary "Something pleasant? Why do you say that?" asked Mr. Lewis. "You and mother look so happy," re plied the child. . , "And we have cause to be happy t" answered the father, as he drew his arm tightly around her,' "in iiaving three such good children." - '' Mary laid her cheek to his, and whis pered : "If you aro smiling- and. happy, dear father, home will bo. like heaven." Mrl Lewis kissed her. but did not re- ft,- rhnlra AiA K,rtOT . um k;s - au0. , o.a hik Ttnrnnne O 7 J O O she parted morning promise. The smiles were kept, how ever, and evening saw them: though not for the outside world. Other, and many. evenings saw the same-pleasant cheerful smiles, and the same happy home. And was not Mr. Lewis a better and happier man ? Of course he was. And so would all men be, if they would take home with them the smiling aspect they so often exhibit as themeet their fellow-men in business intercourse, or exchange words in passing compliments. Take your smiles and cheerful words home with vou, husbands, fathers and brothers. Your hearts are cold and dark without them. A Russian Anecdote. ; - .

BY M06E8 MONTAOUE. ; : ; : No woman can say truthfully that, she does not. care whether she is pretty 'or not.1 J5 very woman' does care. The im mutable laws of her being have made physical attractiyeness, as much a. nat ural ! glory - to her, as strengt h is to a man. ' :- - ;- ; . Here I may be told that what I am saying is superfluous,' fpr perfect beauty has no need, ot.art to : enhance it, and. that , those who have been. born, with hard, or. -worse,'; with perfectly uninter-r esting features, do not want to be told that physical .attractiveness is indispen- gaie to tnem. xsut "it is especially; to know that there- are people who look well ariywhere and anyhow j no vulgar ity, no carelessness of speech, dress, - or attitude seems able to disenchant - them; but these rarely-gifted persons are but the exceptions that prove the 'rule; and even , in their case what Sir Phillip Sidney spake is tcue be says there, is tbat in well chosen surroundings, Which does even beauty beautify, And most bewitch the captived eye;" , and Herriek, too, in bis "Poetry of Dress," seems to have bad an astute ap preciation of how beauty may be beau tified. These men lived in the sixteenth century a time when coloriri dress was an understood and valued adiunct.'-'and before we had learned to make our dwel lings intolerable td the eye. '' An .immense number- of ill-tempered ugly woman : are ill-tempered because they are ugly.- They doinot iknow; it: their friends don't understand, and make no .allowance: but heavy indeed is tut bafde.Qpon.these poor women, and pef-, nituons in us enect on, tneir moral gcnar act'er.'very oftenv'r-X have heard, if said that ugly women are always bad temper- a certain deee Jof truth';' i n ' tbe J saying, cruel as 7tris.
