The Duty of the Wife.
The wife’s place is in the home. That is her proper sphere of action, and the one in which she ought to be most happy.
Don’t devote time to society matters while your house duties need to be done. Don’t spend your time in making clothes for some naked boys in Dooloboo who do not need them, while your own children go about with patched or torn clothing.
Greet your husband with a smile on his return from work.
Don’t scold your husband.
Don’t think your husband ought to be perfect. Are you yourself perfect?
Be careful and economical in the expenditure of money for household purposes. (By the way, your husband ought to make you the treasurer of the firm.)
Always dress neatly for your husband’s sake. You used to do it before marriage. Imagine your husband is still your lover.
Treat your husband’s friends politely. This is an important part of your wifely duty.
Don’t spend money extravagantly for dress or other personal adornment.
