the Apollo Belvidere ever stooped to marry an insignificant little thing
like you.
IT'S the hours a woman spends making frocks that her husband never looks
at, and the hours a man spends making jokes that his wife never laughs
at, that make the matrimonial years drag so heavily.
THE reason that a woman who takes the downward path has so much
attention is that there are so many men going that way.
A MAN makes a virtue of necessity when he prides himself on his devotion
to a wife who is so fascinating that he can't help it.

A MAN'S wife, like any other sort of stimulant, ceases to have that
exhilarating effect after she has become a steady diet.
NO MAN knows the shock that a woman receives when she finds that she has
got to live up to a standard that is half angel and half cook.
MEN declare they admire common sense in a woman; but a physical

have finished with the morning paper and give you the seat nearest the
radiator.
IT must be awful to live with a man after you have reformed him and he
has become so superlatively good that you don't feel superior to him any
more.

GOOD husbands are like tracts, comforting but uninteresting; the other
kind are like dime novels, exciting, but apt to keep you in a constant
fever of dread, anticipation and curiosity.
IF a woman were like a serial novel and a man could read only one
chapter at a time, honeymoons would last forever.
A MAN doesn't demand common sense from a woman; he is satisfied with
incense.
WHEN a girl marries a man because he is the best she can do it is the
