How to Keep Your Husbands Love.
Gale Forest, In Cincinnati Times.

Gale Forest, in Cincinnati Times,
Make up your mind, from the begin.
ing, that whatever happens, you will
never lose your individuality, nor give
in one iota to his opinion air your DIFF
icrcnccs upon every possible occasion IL
will teach him to respect you, and fur
nish unlimited food for the gOssips.
After the honeymoon il past, and be-.
fore, if you think il necessary, grow slack
in regard to your personal appearance,
and, if he has any remarks TO make, tell
him " that you didn't know when you
married him that he was able to dress
you like II queen, and you hadn't dis
covered il yet, for the matter of that
but, if he wished you to set up for n
queen, you ore rendy and willing to do
It. As II il, as you are obliged to do the
work of servants, you claim the privilege
Of looking like them If he has any OBJ
lection, you shouldn't object to his
hiring II girl"
If his love does not seem to be growing
greater under this management, become
careless about your house and inform
him, if he demonstrates about it, that
"vOrr house is not a palace that you are
aware if YOU had Il home such as you
always imagined you should be mistress
Of YOU should, probably, take same de
Iight in keeping it looking nicely as it
is, you can't see the use III it,
When at home be in the blues con-
! %linually look on the dark side OF every
| thing; never give your husband Il word
of encouragement from n years end to
another, but proshcsy his eternal ruin,
financially, upon every available oppor'
tlnitv. in view Of which get every
cent YOU can from him to make II show
away from home,
Endcavor to get up n Irritation with
every man you meet in society. The
remarks he will hear concerning your
conduct will certainly fill him with un-
dying love.
At the same time be frantically jeal-
Gus Of him and give him to understand
that you don't trust him when out OF
your sight. So exalted an opinion of
his honor can not but make him even
tuaIly worthy Of your utmost confidence.
When he goes out of an evening for
business or pleasure and fails to arrive at
home at the instant upon which you
have mentally fixed for his return, bolt
up the house and compel him to arouse
the entire n%eighborhood before you open
it., Such wifcly conduct will un-
doubtcdIy put him into a remarkably
loving mood
Snub HIM and tyraninze over him in
the presence of his bachelor friends, be
fore whom he is solicitous of appearing
as the most cnviable nan in existence,
and to whom he is particularly anxious
to rchcarse the delights OF bencdictdom.
The modification he will feel at the lrus-
tration of his laudable desire will most
assuredIy produce a reaction in your
favor.
Should all other means seem likely to
fail, become most hopeleSsly attached to
YOUR dear parents, and if they reside in
a different city from that in which you
live, spend all the time you possibly can
with them, making life dismal while
you are at home with means because
you can't see your dear parents every
day. Should your husband manifest
any dissatisfaction with this, open n
private dcIugc ut once and tell him that
you never knew before that you had
married n brute. Such affecting deyo-
ton to your parents must surely inspire
him with unqucnchabIe love and adj
miratiOn. But if, with the rest of the
programme, it doesn't appear to do 50
after a dozen years or more, don't give
up in despair, but keep trying, and in
the end you will ccomplish-somcthing.
