I don't mean to be deceitful, 1 would hate to be a hypocrite, But I must confess that, indirectly, I am forever trying to conciliate my bu» band. I think the majority of wives do the same thing in the same way, consciously or unconsciously. And doubtless the majority of hus bands would be tremendously sur. prised if they gueaved that they ruled their women in this fashion.
