Want A Happy Wife? Here Is the Recipe.

After eighteen years of marital bliss, L. C. Dillman, associate of J. Hill, has formulated the following rules which he declares will assure happy marital life: Keep all prom Jes made before and at the time of Divide the newspaper and everything else. Keep a joint bank account. Go to your club no oftener than one night a week. Have no dogs or pets of any kind. Call her up on the telephone two or three times a day. When away from home, write or telegraph every day. Take her with you on business and pleasure trips as much as possible. Be more polite to her than to any other woman you meet. Remember that she likes flowers, candy and books just as much after marriage as before. Make it a business to be comfortable wherever she if happy. Don’t criticise her dress. Be a gentleman to all women, but a husband to only one. If you have been faithful in all things, generous, considerate and loving, and then she is dissatisfied, get a divorce. Husbands and wives should not be separated from each other more than a few days, or at most a few weeks, at a time.
