some OF the Awfui Things she Does a.
Annoy Her Husband.
She contradicts him at the head OF his
own table. interrupts his anecdote to
get him right on an utterly unimpor-
tant little detail-say the date ola trans
action. which he makes the 9TH Of Sep
tember and she asserts was the slh;
she lnterferes IN all his arrangements
and questions his authority in tho sta
bles. the field. the church. the consult
ing-rOOm. she apportions his food and
regulates the amount OF wine he may
take; should she dislike the smell OF to-
baceo she will not allow him the most
transient whif OF the most refined Gig
arctic, and. like her brother with mis-
victim. she teaches the children to de-
splse their father by the frank con
tempt with which she treats him and
the way in which she fouts his opinion
and denies his authority. II she is more
anectionate than aggressive she rem
ders him ridiculous by her effusiveness.
Like the Sammy. love" which reused
Dean Affords reprobation, she loads
him with silly epithets OF endearment
before folk. Oppresses him with person
al attention and treats him generally
as a sick child next door to an idiot.
All out OF love and it's unreasoning
tyranny she takes him into custody
in PUBLIC rs In private life-and allows
him no kind Of freedom. Robust and
vigorous as he Is. she worries over his
health as though he were a confirmed
invalid in the hey-day OF his maturity
ooddling him as II he were an octo-
genarlan bordering on the second child
hood. She continually uses the ex-
preston. 81 shall not allow my hus-
band to do 50 and so;" or. Il will make
my husband do this or that" Never by
any chance does she confess his right
to free action, bound as he is in the
chains Of her tyrannous affection. In
the end she makes him what she has
long fancied him to be, a backboneless
valetudinarian. whom the sun scorches
to fever and the east wind chills ia
