How to Seeure Conjugal Bliss,

American girls would hardly relish the advice given at time of marriage to maidens in some parte ofthe East. When on Arab damsel gets married, her mother gives her the following advice for securing her future happiness: “You are leaving your nest to live with a man with whose wavs and habits you are unfamiliar. I advise you to be his slave if you wish to become the absolute mistress of your husband. Be satisfied with little, endeavor to feed him well and watch over his sleep, for hanger begets anger, and sleeplessness makes a man cross grained. ’ Be dumb as to bis secrets, do not appear gloomy when be is merry, nor merry when he is sad, and Allah shall bless yon.”
