WHAT A MARRIED WOMAN THINKS. That she was a very pretty girl at sixteen. That she had, or would have had, a great many good offers. That all her lady friends are five years older than they say they are. That she has a very fine mind. That if her husband had acted on her advice he would have been a richer man to-day. That people think too much of the looks of that Miss Blank, who would not be called handsome if she didn’t make herself up. That her mother-in-law is a very trying woman. That her girls are prettier than Mrs. Blank’s girls. That she would like to know where her husband spends his evenings when he stays out. That her eldest son takes after him. That he is going to throw himself away on Miss Scraggs. That Miss Scraggs set her cap for him, often did all the courting. That her servant girls are the worst ever known. That she has taste in dress. That she has a good temper. That she pities old maids.
