Hearken my daughter, for the bell
hath sounded for the Matrimonial
Recess, when wives take up their
trunks and depart and husbands gird
up their emotions and fortify their
hearts for the summer vacation.
charge thee, as thou cherishest
thine own happiness, UNTETHER
thy beloved and remove his hobble
and his bride.
Let down the bars and leave him
to seek his own diversions whether
they be blondes, two-seventy- fves or
baseball; likewise to prepare his own
breakfast, count his own collars and
clean his own safety razors.
For a husband that must be kept
forever tethered to hitching post is
not worth the price of the rope where
with he is tied.
Gather up thy lingerie frocks and
thy parasols and deck myself in pur-
pie and fine linen for thy departure.
Yet go not forth, l pray thee, with
weeping and wailing and gnashing of
teeth and the extracting of Promises !;
but with fond farewells and smiles of
confidence and tender words of Sym
pathy, saying:u-
"Poor thing! How sad that thou
must work so hard and canst not fol-
low me! For l know just JUST how
thou wilt miss meP'
Thus will he be disarmed and his
weapons broken against him, and
that which he hath looked upon as a
release shall straightway become an
affection.
And behold, he shall begin to pity
himself!
Lo! During eleven months Of "close
communion" an husbands devotion
and his repartee become frazzled and
his enthusiasm frayed at the edges.
His temper weareth thin and his fer
vor abateth.
But little Total Abstinence from
domesticity shall make him, too, long
for thee as he longeth for an old pipe
after he hath "given up" smoking.
And a few breakfasts of stale bis
cults and warmed-over coffee shall
make him yearn for thee as one
yearneth for land after fortnight at
sea.
Verify, verify, a change Of diet and
a change of air, they are an OCCASION
al luxury. But a change of compan-
ionship is an annual necessity.
For, peradventure, a saint would
weary of Paradise if he thought he
could ever escape therefrOm! Be-
hold! the surest way to hold two peo-
Pile together is to keep them apart &C.
,asionally.
And little Matrimonial Vacation
s joyful thing!
