Evening Republican, Volume 14, Number 246, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 October 1910 — Managing a Husband. [ARTICLE]

Managing a Husband.

Men are like children; they want managing, although you must never let them dream that you think so. No :hild likes to be ordered about, no man will endure coercion. But managing! It is an art so subtle, so elusive, that few women understand even the rudiments of it. Sisters mine, let us reason together, says Woman’s Life. In every human being there is a spark of the divine; it is yours to fan that spark into a flame —that is managing a man—it is to get the very best out of him there is to have, and not two women in ten can do it. Do not think that there is anything unworthy in managing a man —to bring out the best is a high vocation. Only let us see to it that we are worthy of it. There are women who have made angels of men, but at the cost of their own divinity. There is room for more than one unselfish person in a family.
