Woman. 2 What every wife knows is that the average husband has to have his old ties consigned to the rag bag, his old hats burned in the family spring bon- fire, his old shoes given to the begging: tramp, his old suits pried off his pro- testing anatomy before he will part wtih them. en once a custom Is. estab- lished with masculinity it sticks like fish glue.
