THE WIFE'S SECRET.

BY

MRS. ANN S. STEPHENS.

AUTHOR OF "THE REJECTED WIFE," "FASHION AND FAMINE," "THE OLD HOMESTEAD," "MARY DERWENT," "THE HEIRESS," "THE GULF BETWEEN THEM," ETC., ETC. If fame is won by woman, she must yield The richest glory of her being up, Drain her full heart, fling off its golden shield, And give her holiest love to fill the cup, Which, like a brimming goblet, rich with wine, She poureth out upon the world's broad shrine. In after years, such thoughts as live and burn, Are sacred ashes in her funeral urn.

PHILADELPHIA: T. B. PETERSON & BROTHERS, 306 CHESTNUT STREET.
