STOREHOUSE OR HUSBANDS.

Boston Is to Have One Managed by a Refined Widow I.ady. Ladies leaving the city for the summer have keenly felt the need of a place where they could, as it were, store their husbands. Now comes a refined widow lady who can give and will require the highest references, who offers for a consideration to lodge and board respectable husbands, look after their linen, give them a mother's care if ill. Everything will be done to amuse and interest them while under her care, while at the same time discipline will be maintained and no latchkeys will be allowed. Wives need have no apprehension on that score. There will positively, says the prospectus, “be no funny business.” A look, a word, will, it is thought, be enough to quiet, and, if need be, break the spirit of the proudest and most bullying of husbands. Hundreds of certificates as to refined widow lady's skill in handling desperate cases can be had. Money refunded in ca ge of dissatisfaction.—Boston Herald.
