THE HOUSEHOLD PRISONER.

W THEN women with high hair and
w high voices get up to talk about
the Prisoner of the Home they
invariably represent that prisoner as ,
woman.
They make of her kitchen dress a
convict's garb, and mold her biscuit
cutter and dishpan into manacles, and
of the chopping bowl make a big bali
which they chain to her feet.
There may be homes in which such
conditions exist, but there are as many
more in which the husband is the pris-
Oner and his letters are made of what
mis- wife calls love"
If she doesn't love him. he can do as
he pleases. If she loves him, when he
takes off his hat he hears, Where have
you been?" and when he puts it on he
hears, Where are you going
These two questions Mrs Lysander
John Appleton always asks her hus-
band. They are followed by objections
reproaches, more questions. suspicion.
jealousy, sometimes detective work, and
tears
Lysander John put on his hat
Where" asked his wife, are you
going?"
He wanted a breath of air he said,
and was told to stick his head out Of

We're cigars in his den. He believed he
