That would stop all this twaddle
about the disillusion Of marriage.
1t would keep silly brides from
thinking they were being neglected
because their husbands devoted more
time to making a living than they
did to love-making. 1t would keep
romantic idiots from thinking they
had fallen out Of love with each
other because they had ceased to
thrill at each others footsteps.
A little common sense would stop
the ceaseless quarrels that make so
many homes a hell on earth for all
who are doomed to live in them.
Every husband and wife know what
topics they disagree upon. Each
knows the fighting word for the
other. Each knows that In the heat
Of argument they say unforgivable
things, deal wounds that never
heal.
Wouldn't a little common sense
suggest that such being the case,
they would avoid the subjects that
they know are as good for q row
as a nickel is for q ginger cake:
that they would give the soft an
swer that turns away wrath, and
discuss the weather instead Of each
others religion and politics and
families? DOROTHY DIX.
