Problem D r0 h - x Silencing

of o t y ' Nalginl Husbands w"!

“W mien Are Always Asking: " ' ‘ “TH W“ Retain Our Husbands’ Love?’ If The)’ Would Ask That Question of Their Husbands the Answerwould Be in Chorus: ‘Quit Nagging,’ ”

Says Dorothy Dix

I The great and insoluble problem of matrimony, so for as men are COllJLfiIEll, is nagging wives. ‘The question husbands ask me oftener than any other is, in the slang of the day, how can I make my wife my off me? How can I silence a woman who has the gift of tongues and who can never say a thing once and let it rest? What can you do with a wife

or turning from aperfect 38 to an awful 42 or vvi-‘H thriftlessness or bad cooking that makes men tire of their wives and drives them away from home. It is nagging. As long as a woman refrains from reminding her husband of his faults she might gct as old as u female Methusclah and so stout as l1 fat woman in a circus and she would still look slim and YWRE and lllxiullllll to him and he would pay her bills and cat her cooking with tiiiinkfuincss of hcart and still consider that he had drawn a prize in the 11 1: iage lottery. v

bad, bccausc she always comes home with something interesting to tell.

besides, if a wife has any of these drawbacks she can be rcasoniz; with. She can be brought to see the error of hcr ways and there is a1. ways at least a sporting chance of her changing and moulding herself nearer to her husband's heart's desire.

But nagging, that's different. That is something else Yet 818M111. That is utterly and entirely hopeless, because no woman ever yet admit- ted that she nags. She only tells her husband things for his own good and she has to keep repeating tlieni because he does not listen to her advice. Goodness knows, it is no, pleasure to’ hcr to have to tell him every time he come in the house as she has done ever since the day they were married to wipe his feet on the doormat and put his hat in the closet. And where he would have been if she hadn't Just kept after him all the time about those old friends of his that used to be always hanging around him she doesn't know.

There are plenty of men who, from the time they wished trouble on themselves at the altar to the time they find peace and quiet in the grave, never eat a meal without being told how bad everything they like is for their stomachs. They never hear the last of any mistake they have mode. Forty years after it happened they are still being nagged about the‘ time they lent on old school fellow sonic money he neve: repaid or the time they went to a class reunion and came home all lit up singing they never would be slaves or the time they made some bad nnestment.

How tired, how deadly tired a man can get of having the same straw threshed over again every day for years upon years; how weary he can get of -listening to the litany of his wife's complaints, how worn out lie can become at being twittcd perpetually about his weaknesses and having his mistakes thrown up to him, only God, who ‘knows the secrets of hu- man hearts, can tell. But it is the martyrdom that millions upon mil- lions of men are called upon to endure and that they do endure because of their sense of obligation to a woman they have taken for better or worse, not knowing it would bc all worse, and because of their duty to their children. .

It is idle to ask why men do not do something about the nagging wife. Nothing can be done except to strangle her or divorce her. A few men use the first method, many adopt the latter, but most men just shut their teeth and grimly carry on. There is no cure for the hugger,

because she is not only supremely egotistical and self-righteous but a

petty tyrant as well. She believes that shc knows it all and she is deter-

mined to rule her husband with a rod of iron and make him do her way

whether it makes him miserable or not. I And she docs, because in the end a man, exhausted with the con-

flicts he has been through all day iii the outer world, can be badgered

into doing anything for the sake of peace.

Women are always asking: "How can we retain our husbands‘ love?"

If they would ask that question of their husbands the answer would be

111 chorus: “Quit nagging." For the real reason that most men leave

homo is to gct out of hearing of their wives tolling them what poor, mis- erable creatures they arc or wanting to know for the millionth time why they can't have the things Miss Croesus has.
