Managing a Husband.
If you -want to help the man you are going to many to l>e line and strong and true, show him that you believe he has all those qualities. You will raise his own self-respect and bring him to the level you tell Vnm he occupies.
And don't make the mistake of thinking it is all going to be paradise. You are going to marry a man who will come home tired, cross, and fagged, and ho won't find relief for all his trials in a caress and a few tender words, as he did before marriage, when they were more of a novelty. He would rather have his dinner, though he may not confess it. "When he has been fed and comforted, however, he will be ready for this tenderness—and the fact th?.t he did not feel demonstative when his stomach was empty will be no sign that he is not still in love.
Believe in the man you take as your life's partner; be gentle with him, don't contradict him when he is tired; let him think he is having his own w; p , in his own house; feed him with what he, likes and laugh at his jokes. Herein lies the secret of a happy hornet
