THE PERFECT HUSBAND.
A now method of discipling husbands who abuse their wives has been evolved from his experience of cases of marital infelicity by tho Long Island city stipendiary, Mr John Kocbendorfer. He announced that too many cases of this sort wore coming before him. Now he informs all obstreperous husbands that in future they will either go to goal or acceptthis alternative; they must agree to:— Prepare breakfast every morning, Wash dishes in the evening; Take care of the children for an hour a day; Have one evening out a week; Take the family every Sunday to
> church in the morning and for a walk r in the afternoon; ! Buy sweets and fruit for the wife ’ and children at least once a week; Allow the wife to handle the family i> \ finances; | Start a savings bank account; | Refrain from asking tho wife to wait |on him, but wait.on her instead; and j Repeat once a day the promise made I to his wife on marriage—namely, to I love, honour and cherish her. , I 'l propose to make bad husbands themselves,” Mr Kochendorfer said. * ( Probation officers will check up their performances every day, and after two or three weeks the husbands will realise the monotony and drudgery of moFd women's lives'.*’
