Wife Who Nags.

The worst thing that the bad fairy could wish upon a man Is a nagging, fault-finding wife. The most savory of the dishes prepared by her hand tastes fiat and stale if served up with the sauce of her complaints, and the cosiest of homes is a place of unrest if it is the storehouse of her recriminations. Even if there is Just cause for jealousy, nagging is an aggravation rather than a cure. It breeds the spirit of antagonism and the case of the injured party is hurt rather than helped. The only safe cure for straying af"fectionsTsfcTThake oneself scTattractive, so agreeable, that the desired love and attention is irresistibly held to its original moorings. Sometimes Sudden evidence of indifference awakes the errant one to the fact that the straying may be mutual. Sometimes renewed outbursts of affection, of care and Interest, is the tonic of weakened ardor. Sometimes splendid results are accomplished by wearing smart and becoming clothes and brushing up the wits and vivacity.
