certain Obnoxious Methods in Domestic
Partnerships.

The fretful partner Is like an incurable
disease, and should be run of to the hos
pital for incurables Just as soon as the case
has become chronic, says the Womdns Mag
dsiHe. Fretfulness clogs the wheels of the
whole domestic machine and dampens the
genial atmosphere that belongs TO the home;
clouds the sunshine that should warm and
brighten IL. II is an intolerable evil, and, il
IL can not be abated by mild methods, it
should be indicted as a nuisance The ex-
travagant partner never counts the cost of
any thing that is desired, but plunges head
long into all sorts Of foolish purchases. He
is a veritablc Toodles. The penurious part
ner goes as reprehensively in the opposite
direction, and his parsimony makes the
other half of the firm miserable. The lazy
partner seeks to throw the entire cares Of
the bread-getting upon the other, and yet
expects TO fare as we'll Happily we have
no domestic firms in this country in which
the weaker partner is degraded by the
slavish labor imposed upon her, as it is in
some countries, where "a woman is seen do
ing or assisting in the work of an animal-a
beast of burden-while the noble husband
| performs some easier task. IL is well that
| public opinion would not tolerate such bar
barous spectacle here. There are cases, no
i doubt, where the wife suffers enough of in
dignity and neglect without that or course
/ all of these domestic firms can not be
wealthy ones, but all can and should be
equal in the division Of the profits that ac-
crue from their joint efforts 20 keep up the
reputation and promote the prosperity of
the concern. The average woman, among
the class Of people who depend upon en-
. ploymeut for their being, does full as much
work, of her own kind, as the man, and ms
rule, does il with less grumbling; she
spends less out Of the general fund for beer
and tobacco, and yet received less dividends
than he does. Such partnerships are glar
ingly inequitable, and. though sanctioned
by custom, should not exist. Man-must
say it's an egotistical animal, and though
he have a true, devoted and Woodworking
partner I'm his wife, almost invariably speaks
OF "my farm and "my house," even i
his gentler partner has contributed largely
toward acquiring il. In many Of these do
nestle partnerships the woman makes fal
tho longer days, working, perhaps, till bed
time, while the other smokes his pipe and
reads his newspaper, and yet he hugs him
self with the idiotic delusion that he Is sup
porting this weary creature, who does {
hundred things that never enter his obtus'
brain. In his conceit it Is only hewho tolls
while those Trailer hands and more thought
ful head are doing FAR more than he to ouil6
