DON’TS FOR WIVES.

1. Don’t marry a man for a living but for love. Manhood without money is better than money without manhood. 2. Don’t overdress nor underdress. Gommonsense is sometimes better than style. 3. A stylish wife and a husband with patched trousers make a poor pair. 4. Don’t forget a woman can throw more out of a kitchen window with a spoon tb&n a man can put into a cellar with a shovel. 5. Don’t think the way to “ run a house ”is to run away from it. Don’t lecture other women how to bring up children, while your own are neglected6. Don’t tell family troubles to your neighbour, they have enough of their own. (Fight out the matter with your husband if it takes all the summer). 7. Don’t nag. The hotelkeeper is always glad to welcome your husband with a smile. 8 Don’t forget Nature’s sunshine is better for women’s beau f y than powder and paint. 9. Don’t make gamblers and drunkards of your children by home practices. 10. Don’t forget to tell the truth, even to ihe conductor about the age lof your child. Honesty is worth more to you than a few pence, A boy who is eight years old at home and only six on the car, will soon learn other ways of telling what is untrue. 11. Don’t forget that home is a women’s kingdom, and take your right place there. 12. Don’t forget that the spirit in which you rule your home, is far more important than the things you do day by day.
