"HERE Is no other human being
In the world who so richly de-
serves to have something dras-
Il tic done to her as the woman
who boasts that she always says just
what she thinks.
You number her among your ac-
quaintances unless you have been par
ticularly favored by Lady Luck. She
is the woman who tells you that you
are. getting fat or showing your age,
or that your new hat that you paid
more for than you should is unbe-
coming, or that your skirt is too long
in the back. When you show her
your house or garden, she tells you
that they are badly arranged and that
you should have landscape gardener
or an interior decorator do them for
you, because your taste is bad. She
criticizes your food even while she is
eating it and tells you Just how she
cooks the dish on which you pride
yourself.
II you have good-looking husband
with foot that is inclined to wander,
she never fails to tell you in the midst
OF a crowd that she saw him lunch
ing with a beautiful blond and she
wondered If all those tales she heard
about him were true. She tells you
that people say that you spoil your
children, and that they are the worst
brats in the neighborhood. She asks
you If you don't think that the frail
little daughter, who is the very core
Of your heart, isn't tuberculous. She
says that she looks that way to her,
and didn't your Great-aunt Susan die
of the disease?
YES, We all know the woman who
prides herself upon saying just
exactly what she thinks, heaven help
U.s. And, perhaps, the hardest thing
about her to put up with is her
self-complacency. For, after having
trampled out vanity into the dust and
stabbed us to the heart by telling us
things we would rather die than hear,
she has the nerve to camouf1age her
crimes by representing them as truth
and honesty.
That her structures are often the
truth doesn't excuse her for wound
ing every one she meets. Maybe most
of us are repeaters. who tell our favor
ite stories over and over again, but
why interrupt us just at the point of
