SECRET OF A HAPPY MARRIED LIFE

Josephus, the Jewish historian, writing of the fall of man says, "And while all the living creatures had one language, at that time the serpent which then lived together with Adam and his wife, showed an envious disposition at his supposal of their living happily and in obedience to the commands of God and imagining that when they disobeyed, then they would fall into calamities, he persuaded the woman out of a malicious intention to taste of the tree of knowledge." Pages 33, 34 of Josephus.
Since the first volley of, Satan was fired at the felicity of the home it is proper to devote our first efforts to restoring that happiness; for a large proportion of the infelicity resulting from the fall of man is found in the marriage relation. "That old serpent, the devil" has always been envious of man's conjugal serenity and tried every means of destroying that blessed union. For the purpose of thwarting the enemy's designs and bringing happiness to every heart and home, this little book is sent forth with a prayer that God may use it to His glory and the salvation of souls.
