The NnRging Woman.
II has been some time since / intruded on
these columns. though every week an i'm
terested reader. Lately L have been more
interested than ever ny the discussion on
THE Nagging Woman OF course. l take
the woman's side in the discussion and
heartily indorse all that Lady Somerset
and one of the Naggers' say. But !
must say in what 1 have in life at
least three-fourths of the "naggers' were
men--not women. How many more happy
homes would there be III the husbands
would strive as hard to be patient and
speak as gently their wives do? Poor
wives whose bodies CULVER with pain and
overtasked nerves, VINO are obliged to do
their daily work, besides, perhaps, caring
AL day and part of the night for sick anu
fretiul children. who long Tor appreciation
and klnu words and YET only receive FAULT ,
nndinS ana harsh ones. Many such 1 knows
Mho believe I.Iai riage rs a failure. But Lee
sickness or misfortune overtaNe these cross
foult -lndlng husbands, with what tender /.
sympathy ana love 40 they cling TO them.
Some time ago "ransy," who WEEDS the
pen OF "a reauy writer. had an article IN
these columns t. whose truthfulnesS many
could attest. And our own Bill Arp recent
~ gave us in this paper a good article on
this line. As he says, when women have
love. appreciation ana protection at home
they have all they desire and care nothing
for public notoriety nor female suffrage.
SOME women, of course, advocate womans
suffrage VINO nave no wrongs OF their own
To redress, hut because they believe it will
in some way alleviate the sorrows of their
less fortunate sisters.
Alas, how true il is. too. that often after
yeats OF sickness, trouble and toll for the
man of her choice has caused her beauty
TO fade she has TO endure the keenest of
all pain I'M knowing that the heart of her
husband has turned from her to some other
younger and fairer woman. Then she has
no redress only 10 bear all silently for the
sake of her children till life shall cease.
She does not take his life for his unfaith-
fulneSS. as he would ners, but silently, often
nncomplainingiy. endures it all, keeps it
from her children and the world if possible,
and would have every one believe she is a
happy wife with an honorable husband.
Some years ago a Moman'S club i'm New
York offered prize of $50 for the best way
to manage or to keep husband, | forget
which. \ young lady of eighteen won il
with the answer Love him" Innocent
girl, how little she knew of husbands. and
how little she knew what love meant! How
many wives have loved their husbands well
enough to endure all things for their sakes,
have seen them wander off in spite OF all
their love and felt the bitterness of living
death. Poor little Dot" as she called her
self. | hope she has not found out ere this
that she cannot always bind a. man to her
with letters Of love.
but all honor to the noble. faithful, kind
husbands who deserve patient gentle
wives, they deserve our sympathy II they
have a "nagger" / don't believe such a
man ever has a nagging wife unless her
nerves are all unstrung with sickness; then
she deserves pity and eentleness, which
will cure her IL anything will RUE.
