A married woman has been complaining
that because she lives in town she sees
less of her husband in 10 years than her
country sister does In three. From q care
fully kept account she demonstrates that
he spends only 43 hours week With her,
against 70 which her county cousin Be-
cures. OF course, town life does leave Lit.
tie time for mutual companionship. but
on the other hand 1t gives little opportu-
nifty for mutual boredom, which is an ad-
vantage when the wrong man discovers
after the wedding that he has sworn to
love and cherish the wrong woman.
