An experienced magistrate wil tell you this type of woman frequently summon their husbands for assault and battery. 6. Beware of the intensely religious girl. She does not mean to be dangerous or passionate, but the fact that she is so devotional indicates that she posseses an unbalanced passionate temperament. 7.

Specially beware of "married women" of reputed respectability, whom you have formerly had every reason to believe in and respect, when these same women, by acts obvious or guarded, show you that they would not object to you being more intimate with them than you know in your own conscience you ought to be. 9.
