The Confessions OF a Wife
Sewing With Annie on Little Tins Clothes

Col took US from them in shape OF q
rib. We were not made especially for
, their beneilt--a thing the devil tells
us every day. Many OF us listen to
MIN alana and we git very uppity and
talk about Twin our own lives whin
all the time We know in our hearts it's
the lives OF our husbands that We
want to regulate and live.
Nov, Miss Margaret, I've found
out wan thing and I've got IL knocked
into my noodle so, II can't get away
from me, and that is that We must give
man his head once in a while.
He Just must let his meanness
come out Some ave Thin do II
through bottle of whisky, some ave
thin make love to women promis-
circus like. some ave thin Just take II
ont in naggin' about the house and
some of them are that stingy with
money and lovin words that We might
as well be married to lump of wood
= the cords will hurt We that ties We TO
aither.
"once In while know that Tim
gets to thinkin that he is i'm bad with
the whole world and thin he hunts
around in his own mind to find who
he can lay the blame on. Ave course,
me bein' his wife and usually prisent,
! git the blame.
Now I've come to the conclusion
IL We can only just kape yer head and
reminder that bein' the last handi-
work 'of God We are much superior to
the man who Is BLOWN of his steam
and had feelins We can get strangle
holt on him whin he comes TO hts
