Dont's for Wives.

Don’t “nag” your husband. Don’t think your husband’s heart is bigger than his stomach. Don’t be afraid to assert your rights as an equal partner with your husband. Don’t repeat what your husband tells you. Don’t whine. Don’t be afraid to live within your means. Don’t try to wear a $25 bonnet on a 25-cent income. Don’t attempt to make a “society man” of your husband. Don’t complain when your husband wants you to stay at home with him in the evening. Don’t publish your domestic grievances abroad. Don’t scold any more than is necessary “to keep peace in the family.”
