HUSBANDS’ LOT
THINGS NOT WHAT THEY WERE MADRID. Tilings are not what they were for husbands in Spain, according to writer Victor Ruiz Iriarte. In an article in the Madrid Informaciones he declared: “How times, have changed since the twenties when the Spanish husband went off gaily on a Sunday afternoon with liis cigar and his walking stick to his cafe or club, leaving his wife at home. To-day our husbands are fabulously faithful to their wives. The poor fellows cannot even think of such distractions because they have to work no hard.” He concluded: “We men have not changed so much from the ways of our fathers. It is the women .of to-day who are so different from their moth ers'.” —Reuter.
