A man >su't a man who wiu’t ad
mit lliNt the reason his wife loses
most of her friends is because he
.doesn’t like them
. If any other woman talked alsnit
tlie man a girl is engaged to the way
she does, she would never forgive
her with her dying breath.
Ii’s a mighty rare woman who
can’t manage to put a chair ill the
bellioom where her husband is sure
to knock into it when lie gets up in
the dark.
It is hard to say which is the btg*
ger fool—the man who always gets
fooled by a woman or the woman
who always fools herself into believ
ing that she fools the man.
All a man has to do : lo make a
girl think she is having a desperate
flirtation with him is to ask her what
he ought to do to show women his
ideas are different from other men’s.
