Why Does Marriage Make Men

pid or bright, fascinating or a bore,

It charitable to suppose that the
generality Of married men do not
realize how little cheerful converse
ton they really bestow upon their
families, and that their silence is the
result of carelessness rather than NAL
ice aforethought. Nevertheless. il is
sadly true that nearly all the talk that
many wives hear from their hus-
bands lips is fault-finding.
Eloquent In Finding Fault
The meals may be perfectly pre-
pared for ninety-nine consecutive
days, the house clean, the children
washed and spanked and the wife
waiting to greet her husband with a
glad sweet smile when he returns
from his iabors and not one word Of
commentator does she hear on the
subject; but let the potatoes be wa

bad or the wife late coming III, and

about it good and plenty.
1t seems to a man very small mat
ter that he should only spit out an
impatient Huh" when his wife is
monologing along, trying to make con-
versation at the table, or that of an
evening he should bury himself in
the afternoon papers and read and
smoke in the silence Of the grave from
dinnertime until bedtime; but to the
woman 1t means the difference be-
tween ,cheerfulness and despair, be-
tween marriage being q failure and a
success. s 3j.g
