Assuredly, not. And it's perfectly
wonderful how many astute married
people, with proper respect for their
own peace and comfort, have antici-
pated Judge Phillips's decision, and in
stead of telling their respective hus-
bands and wives the truth that would
raise row have told the little lie that
insured the dove of peace still roosting
