Let every husband be persuaded that there are two ways of governing a family; the first is by or problem of th it will that belongs to force; the second, by the power of mildness, to which even strength will yield. When a husband accustoms himself to say will, he loses his empire. 2. Avoid unnecessarily contradicting your' 1 wife. When we smell at a rose, It Is to Imbibe the sweetness of its odor; we likewise look for anything that Is amiable in man. Whoever is often contradicted feels an aver, slou for the person who contradicts. 3. Never take upon yourself to be a censor upon your wife's morals, nor read lectures to her, except afiectionately. Let your preaching be a good example, and practice virtue yourself, to make her In love with it. 4. Command her attention by being always attentive to her; never exact anything from her that you would not be willing that she should require from you; appear always flattered by the little she does for you, which will excite her to kind offices. 5. All women are vain; in some their vanity is Insufferable. Never wound this vanity, not even In the most trilling Instance. A husband may have more sense than his wife, but he should never seem to know it. 0. When a woman gives a wrong counsel never make her see that she has done so, but lead her on by degrees to what is rational, with mildness and gentleness; when she Is convinced, leave her all the merit of having loumi out wnat was just ana reasonaoic. 7. When a wife Is out of temper behave obligingly to her; If she Is uuklnd, never retort or find fault with her, with a view to humble her. 8. Choose well your male friends; have but few, and be cautious of following their ad-, vice In all matters, particularly if inimical to the foregoing instructions. 0. Cherish neatness without luxury, and pleasure without excess; dress with taste, and particularly with modesty. Such things may appear trifling, but they are of more Importance than Imagined. 10. Never be curious unueccssarlly to pry Into your wife's concerns, but obtain her confidence by that which, at all times, you repose In her. Always preserve order and economy; avoid being out of temper, and be careful never to scold. By this means she will find her own house moro pleasant than any other. 11. Seem always to obtain Information from her, especially before company, though you may pass yourself for a simpleton. Never forget that a husband owes his Importance to that of his wife: if he degrades her he In- Jure himself. Leave her entirely mistress oi ner action, to go and come whenever she thinks fit. A husband ought to make his company so amiable to his wife that she will not be Inclined to seek any other; then she will not look for pleasure abroad, If he does not partake of It with her.
