Married Nan Ausacers Complaints Of Tilted Wives
Says Wipes Wouldn't Dare to Treat Boarders as
They DO Their Husbands
BY CYNTHIA GREY

The Tilted deserted cife has had her sag thru these
columns s6rerai times recently Nou married man
aoith aasiper to these plants:
Dear Cynthia: Several days ago there appeared amert
in your columns the wife who had husband stolen
by girl" 1t is interesting tho not necessarily conclusive
Perhaps there may be something say behalf of the
man. / am somewhat familiar with case which comes
to matching the you write about In this parcu-
lar case the man finds sympathy, encouragement help
maybe little udicious flattery from the girl; while the
wife supplies-complaints, headaches gloom.
The husband is the target for faultfndngf you had
only done MS told you" II said so all the time" mo
body to blame but Yourself" ETC. and etc-ad bitum ad
nauseum
The girl does not complain To her he il as God All
he does he does we'll To the wife, all he does done wrong
Naturally, the girl wins
II every married woman would just remember to be MS
kindly and sympathetic after marriage she is before,
there would be fewer husbands leaving home But married
he tries to escape the tyranny Of tearshe everlasting
grabbing which is served with every meal.
Let wives do little thinking before they find fault with
the they have taken for better for whether
they would express themselves in quite the language
if the ceremony had not been performed.
You can bet your last dollar that out of ten wives
who complain today wouldn't dare TO treat boarder as
they treat their husbands For the good that they
know il they did, thered be roomforrent sign needed
inside of an hour.
But ted-marred- children-and the poor fool thinks
that he can't get away and proceeds TO play hob with all
his feelings Resuif the husband doesn't cheat openly
and flagrantly he does secretly
In short-f wife wants to keep the lover in her hus-
band she will have TO learn to keep being sweetheart
herself! Thank you ONE MARRIED MAN.
