How to Anchor Him.

Chicago Tribune: "a beautiful young wife
on the North Side has expended much in
genuity in devising scheme to keep her
husband at home nights, and it proves very
effectual. She fatters her lege lord about
the exquisitely dainty proportions of his feet,
and induces him to wear boots about two
sizes too small for him. He is on his feet all
day long IN town, and when he gets home at
night she has pair of loose, cool slippers for
him, and by the time he, with great drops of
agony pearling his brow, has got off his
boots, he comes to the conclusion that there is
no place like home after ALL and has no de-
sire to go down town to the lodge, or sit up
with sick friend
