One evening, while thus seated alone, I noticed * that she paused reflectively, and presently I heard her say: /.• : “ No, no ; I’ll not remind him. To say to him, my love,»for the first time in ten years, you have forgotten the return of our wed ding day, might sound like a reproach. No neither tears nor reproaches belong to a day from which date tcil years of tranquil happi ness. T am sure his forgetfulness arises from no want o f love for me. Active and occu- • _ .I-* pied as he is, I know how many other things he has to think of. JCJ isliad remembered— well,# would have been delightful. How^ ever, since he has chanced to forget, let me reflect that his memory might be as retentive as that of the almanac, and yet he might not love me. No ; i f I avenge his forgetfulness, it shall bo in my own way—by making the fireside of which he is so fond more than usu ally pleasant to him this eveningt” Mrs. Silver smiled and resumed her work, which that evening was a handsome smoking cap she was embroidering for.master; but I certainly' saw the beginning of a tear in one of her eyes—the one nearest fb me. “ The other daV,” she continued medita- V / lively, “ he was regretting that the old cus tom o f having hot suppers had passed away. Iv’e a good mind to surprise him with one to night ! But what shall it be?— what is he specially fond of?” . ‘ ~ I beg here to be allowed to saw that tho’ I bad never had any other mistress than the labor whose behavior I am now‘ describing, a poker who for ten years had been in the very best of middle class society, and who has assisted at the' reading aloud of all the fashionable novels and a few o f the most in teresting divorce cases, is able to understand the exact difference between the best and the worst o f wives. * ^ .7 of all the world, his parents and mine inclu ded. Time if it has made me acquainted with his ^faults, has also taught me to bear with them, without disgust, impatience or weariness. There is nothing to be surprised at in the continuance of such a love as mine entirely unromantic, jog-trot you see Such was it, the sort of love I now feel for my husband, I hope to feel for him when my hair is gray, and without blushing to confess it.” • : . ‘ •*' • . Mrs. Tovey tied her bonnet-.strings as tightly as if her chin was a package of hard ware and she had been cording it for expor tation. ’ L; • “ My dear!” she cried,J “ I can hardly trust myself to say what I think; but.this I loill sav, if any wife ever went.the wav to . . . • spoil her husband,you are going exactly that vvay now. Patience with his faults, indeed ! Mr. Tovey, I dare say, would, ,be delighted to find me patient with his—and.Heaven knows he has enough of them ! But that is not my nature. I know my duty as a wo man of intellect a little , better than that ! Why my love, I have just come from having a sceue with him, about this shocking letter of your husbands.

Do, my love, let mo give you some advice on the way to manage your hus band.” * “ Oh, certainly, if it will afford ,you any satisfaction to do so,” replied my mistress .with,.a good untied little laugh. “ You won’t laugh, my dear,” said Mrs. Tovey, “ when you find out, some cjpy, that ^another woman has carried off your husband’s intention feelings alone. > am, amd mightjdo more harm than good.” * ^ - . “ Just as you please, my defer,” said Mrs. Tovey,. starting to her feet, and pulling her shawl about her shoulders with a spasmodic action cf the hands. “ Just as you plea.se, of course; though I did not think I ‘was quite such a fool as you appear to consider me.” Saying which Mrs. Tover flounced out of the room even more impetuosly than she had flounced into it. . “ The foolish creature !” said my mistress after she was gone; “ it was no fault of hers if she hasn't made me very uncomfortable; and all \viRi the best.intentions. Those best iUPyWhat would she not have said if she had known that to-day is my wedding day ? But I am sure my husband does not care to go to this supper party. He has been drawn into it; and if he had declined to go, might have been rallied on being trtidor pet ticoat dominion. I know I have only to say to him, 4 I wish you wouid not go out to night ;’ but I will not say it for there is a tyrany of goodness as well as of kindness.” She paused for a moment or two, and then as if an idea had come into her head, rang the bell. “ I should like him to remain at home this evening,” she continued; “ but if ho does so it shall be from the promptings of his own • John, bring your master^ dressing gown and cigar case.” She said this to Mr. John Thomas as she passed out of the drawing room. In the course o f a few minutes her orders had been obeyed. Almost immediately afterwards my master and Mrs. Tovey came into the room together. “ I can’t help it, Mr. Silver,” if what I say isn’t pleasant for you to hear. I repeat- that you are setting my husband a bad ex ample; and I have told him that I will not allow him to have anything to do with this supper party to-night,” she said. “ Very well, my dear madam !” cried my master, impatiently ; “ i f Tovey likes you to lead him by the nose, that’s his affair; it wouldn’t suit me.” “ Possibly; but you’ll allow me to say that I don’t believe there’s another woman in the world who would put up with such behavior as your wife has put up with hitherto. Do not suppose however, that she will submit to your tyranny forever* You are greatly mis taken if you imagine she will let you go to this scandalous party to-night. Poor thing,” she said aside, “ I must defend her in spite of myself.” # “ Confound it, Mrs. Tovey l” cried my master, “ I wisB you’d mind yotrr business and not drive me into saying disagredfeble things to you.” “ I have onW one more remark to make, Mr. Silver,” said Mrs. Tovey; “ It is to re quest that you will not hold any .further .eom- ure to find an excuse for putting it ou. I should like never to wear an\thing else.” “ That will do, I think,” said my mistrei after Comparing the new cap with the old dressing down. “ You may'44ike it off now.’f O J v “ There is no need for hurry,;my love,” re plied my master, throwing hiin^if comfort ably into a favorite chair; “ 1 shall not star! for this precious supper for another nqur. But vou were saying that my going out . j * ed you in one way though not in another.” “ I mean that J would rather have had you- at home this evening, because I had planned a nice little hot supper for you ; a lobster* rissole , a roasted chicken, and a dainty lemon? pudding.” “ A lemon pudding !” cried my master. “ But now I’ll tell you why I do not mind your going out to supper: it’s because I kno.w' you will get no wine so good as that in your own cellar; no lemon pudding so nice as tbff one I’ve had made for you, even if you get any at all; because you’ll have to wear what you c a ll4 a choker’ instead of your dressingf have your ears split with noisy con- be bored to death with frothy pol- gown- versation itics and have no opportunity, however much* you may wish it, for saying to your wife,* ‘ Laura.

In other words, he put his arm round his wife’s waist and kissed her, and went on kissing her while the clock off the m#ntlepiece slowly and distinctly ticked off thirty secofrds. “ lou see, I must go, Laura,” he said not quite apopos ; “ I’ve promised ’em.” I fancied that I detected just the faintest shade o f disappointment fall1 tt on* toy mis* tress’ face; but she said cheerfully:: ^By all means, dear; and if you Would like to oblige me, there is one particular neck tie I should.like you to wear to-night* I’ll fetch iL’ r ^ . . . . 1.
