to eat any Of the cooked food offered her

huge mat OF hair, and a thick growth
covers the sides of her face and her spine.
Yet she bears the marks OF vaccina-

Awful Examples
of Matrimony.
There's

sion and complaints and whining re-
proaches.
And the meals are an insult to your
palate and an irrepaTable injury TO your
digestion The bread is like lead, the
meat is tough as a shoe sole, the vese-
tables tasteless and wRtery. Furthermore,
there's a sickly and bowling baby or two
that add 10 the din and confusion.
The pretty little wife doesn't know
thing on earth about managing or cook
ing. or how to rum a house. and so Jen-
kns' money is wasted and his wife is
discontinued and peevish because she
can't have things that she secs other
women having, and the poor old boys

any way out OF the dilemma and knows

Browns wife is a good houseI1eeper
and manager. but Brown wouldn't dare
TO enter his own front door without wip-
ing his feet on the door-mAt. and he
would never dream OF doing such a FOOL
hardy thing as taking friend home with
him without first telephoning up and
asking his wife's permission
Brown Is an Intelligent fellow and a
good talker, and men listen TO his opin-
ions with respect Mrs Brown doesn't.
She contradicts him flat at every state
ment and treats him as II he were a
small child. whose righttul place was in
a home for the incVrabie feeble-minded,
"she buys his clothes for him and at
the table tells him what he may eat and
