A woman says what she plcascs without
being knocked down for il. She can take
a snooze after dinner while her husband
gees to work. She can go INTO the street
without being asked TO stand .'trcat," at
every rcfreshmcnt bar. She can stay at
home in time of war, and get married
again If her husband gets killed. She can
wear cprsets il too Fat, and other fixings II
too thin. She caa get divorced from her
husband If she sees man she likes better.
She can get her husband in debt all over,
until he warns the public not to trust her
on his account. But all these advantages
are balanced by the great fact that she can
