Ii your wife is willing to learn, you'll dc

a wife, whereas I've only witc-ia-law, for Il
woman who takes no interest in her husband
welfare, is not wife indeed. She is only

cook or mend either She says her mother told
her it was vulgar nowadays to know any thing
about domestic concerns especially for young
wife That the latest fashion is for wives to be
ladies', aud have their servants. That she must
tell John she was not made to be drudge, and
he must not be so selfish as to want her to work.
Fine times, these, George. A man that don't
stand ready to support his wife, two or three at
PENDANTS and much company, in extravaganza, is
directly niggard. Don't know what will be
done. Men can't all be thriving business men
