A FEW DON'TS FOR WIVES
Don't begrudge your husband a few hours spent with his mon friends. You meet your friends. Bo considerate, and givo him the same privilege. Don't bot.hr him with troublesome triilles that happen during tho day. Don't whine and complain over household difficulties. Don't overwork and be tired and cross when ho comes home. Your husband will see you tired and irritable, where ho will not bo conscious of a few grams of dust which you might have dissipated at the expense of your strength. Don't let yourself set olu and ugly. Take time to keep yourself young, and to cultivate good looks. If von cant be beautiful, try to bo interesting. . Don't forget to cultivate your mind. Road about what is going on in tho great world, so that if he makes a remark on current events you will be able to answer him intelligently, instead of giving him a blank stare. Don't inciuire how his business is, unless you are suro from his face hat ho has something pleasant to-i'll you.
