ART NOT ACQUIRED BY ALL

Can Be Acquired

Nagging your husband is q special
art by itself, and While some women
| have natural gift in that direction,
others can only acquire it by constant
application. A husband in house is
something like hippopotamus. He is
often dull, placid creature, hard to
move or dislOdge, especially if he gets
accustomed to Il favOritc chair. He
often becomes tOughGned by exposure
to constant naggjng, and it takes a
powerful weapon with a fairly high
trajectory to DO him any damage. Oc-
casionaIly, however, he develops SEN
sitiYe areas, ana can become a con-
slant source Of pleasure to any lady
who likes to nag.
Every woman knows, of course, that
her husband is more susceptible about
half an hour before dinner. when he
has come home from The Office tired

Will discover certain days in the
month when She can nag him with the
highest percentage of bulI's-eyes.
The art of nagging, however, is not
all objective. Much can be done from
the subjective standpoint BY intimat-
