With the Context of All the Rules
Laid Down-She, Too, Has
Some Ideas to Air.

ing to wives the world over in the
shape of ten commandments, as fol-
| lows:
l. Never allow hirelings to tend your
husband in what concerns his bodily
welfare
, See that his clothes are ready
each day and befitting the season Of the
year.

disturbances which visit every menage.
4. When your husband is in a bad
temper don't develop similar symptoms.
but when he is merry initiate him un-
| failingiy
;. Don't fondle him before meal
time-kisses to a hungry man are as
soap bubbles to a parched throat
| 6. Use your tongue only in agree
ment; disapproval is best expressed
with the eyes.
I. If your husband has the govt,
don't insist on walking.
8. II you wish to convince him that
you are better actress than Bernhardt
and a sprightler dancer than PavlOwa.
show him that you are a better cook
than Escoffier.

vice for the other.

earns money for his wife ana forces
her to seek other people for her enjoy

fairly.
IF it is n wifely duty to lay out
shirts and socks for the lord of the
manor. the latter should certainly take
the time and trouble to pay a compli-
ment to Miladi's new frock. 1t is eX-
asperating when n man never notices
the difference between last years
wrapper and this seasons newest in
walking suits.
| There is A Time For Kisses.
Il think it's nonsense tn expect any
body to be a human barometer. Mental
moods and lenses can never he reduced

band-or ones wife-is a quiet, toler-
