Wife's Ten Commandments.
l. Thou shalt not cause the first quar-
rel, but, If unavoidable, fight it through
bravely. To be victor in the first domestic
quarrel may have a tendency to elevate
thee in thy husbands mind for all future.
2 Thou shalt not forget that thou hast
married a man, not a god. Therefore be
not surprised by his f~railties.
3 Thou shalt not always talk money to
thine husband. Rather try to get along
on the allowance he maketh thee.
T. If thou considerest thine husband
heartless, remember that, verify, he hath
a stomaeh. BY persistently appealing to
his stomach with we'll cooked meals thou
mayest, after all, touch his. heart.
5. once in a great while. but not too
often, thou shalt let him have the last
word. 1t tickleth him and wilt not do
thee any harm.
6. Thou shalt read the whole news
paper and magazine, not merely the stories
dealing with scandal and society. Thine
husband will be pleasantly surprised to
find, off and on, that he Gun talk on gem
eral topics and even on politics with his
wife.
T. Thou shalt not be ruce even when
quarreling with thy husband. Forget not
that at one time in thy life thou didst
consider him little short of a demigod.
8. Thou shalt, from time TO time, allow
thine husband to know a little more tina
myself, admitting hat thou art not in
fallible all through.
9. II thine husband is a smart man
thou shalt be his friend, if he is not, thou
shalt be both counselor aud friend to him.
10. Thou shalt esteem thy husbands
relatives, especially his mother. Remem-
Der that she loved him long before thou
didst.
