don't Kill Your Wife
Of course, you don't mean to do so, but did you ever reflect
that she gives more'thatt half of her time in making your home
beautiful and comfortable, to keeping your clothes ,so neat and tidy

that bane enabled you to go oniworking, earning and sleeping in
peace and contentment, Now, do your part, Make it easy for her

Thus will your day's ,be spent in peace and colntenttnee t and
your nights in refreshing sleep, the natural result of helping your
