A WIFE'S "PRIVILEGE."
WOMEN AND NAGGING. "It is a privilege of women in all classes of society to nag their husbands," commented Mr. 11. C. A. Bingley, at Maryiebone Court, when a man objected to being bound over not to assault his wife unless she was also bound over not to nag him. . The husband, Edward Housego, looked very glum at tlys statement, and remarked that a man wanted some com : fort after "a hard day's work. " Don't take it so seriously," replied the magistrate, smiling. Then, turning to the wife, he asked, " Will you try not to nag him in future ? " " I only nag him when he comes , home drunk every week-end," retorted/ the wpman. * k Mr. Bingley bound the husband. over, and expressed the hope that they, would " live happily ever after."
