What to 10 about this juXtaposition
has kept all the philosophers guessing
and all the gosSips talking. since the
meeting occurred.
Marriage was about the best they
seemed able to do about il.
And poor as il is in many eases no
body has succeeded in improving on il
yet.
The world is open 10 suggestions,
however.
Many n woman has married n man to
get rid of him and did.
a few old-faShioned men. who were
born under conditions one would think
might be conducive TO breeding good
sense into people. have held the theory
that in marriage a man and his wife
were friendly partners in the business
of living and maintaining the life Of the
world.
Equal partners. At that.
Sometimes 4 man has had that idea
until he went to Il dancing class and
found that ! man was merely a dry
nurse 10 his wife. who was supposed 10
he is helpless as possible.
Or. If YOU, prefer. he might be called
a hc-ladieS maid or valet.
The fact that this helpleSSneSS il
purely flgurative and 4 pose. doesn't
seem 10 nave changed the conventions
much.
The average woman lets a man think
fetch and carry for his wife until she
lets him know she absolutely demands
that az him and then if muliSh feelings
do not arise in him he il sure n wonder
and ought to be on exhibition.
The average woman lets aman think
he il Just the sort of chap she wants.
until she has him hog tied in the H.. u
