This item is printed on demand. 260 pages. Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.6in.Excerpt from Hours With John DarbyLysias, a youth of refinement and education, has, as confidant and adviser, an old friend, John Darby. The younger being at that stage from which one steps into the great arena, it is the concern of the elder to endow him with experiences which have grown out of the successes and failures occurring in his own life. The talks held by the two as they stroll together through the woods, float in their boat upon the stream, or sit by the evening fireside, relate to these experiences. The subject of women being frequently introduced, much discourse is held on the meaning of the passion of love: it is shown to be a bitter-sweet, - a something which, of all the associations of earth, comprises the most or contains the least. Home is discussed; what it is; what makes it; what keeps it; what is to go before it; who may come into possession of it, and who may not. Earnestly anxious for the good of his young friend, the old man propounds aphorisms and abounds in suggestions. There is a good deal of indulgence in philosophic reflections, but it is aimed to divest this of any appearance of pedantry, and to apply the lessons to the every-day details of life and living.

Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Hours With John Darby But beauty in woman is not so much of face and of form as of motive and action. She is wise who makes herself to look well, but she is wiser who acts well. It is ill advised in a woman to go without adornments, for dress is to a woman what feathers are to the bird, and that bird which bears brightest plumage affords most pleasure by the beauty it carries. But a bird brought to the cage tires quickly enough if feathers alone are the charm there should be voice, and movement, and Winsome ways, and these, rather than the coloring, are what should be the attractions; for a Winsome woman does so delight her husband that never does it come to him to see that little by little the plumage is changing - as change it must that it may keep in accord with advancing years.
