" If home is merely the place where one may feel at liberty to be tired or dull or disagree- able, without losing one's character, I think women, have far more right to avail themselves of the liberty than men ; for all the lonesome, dull, disagreeable part of home-life comes into their department. It is they who must keep awake with the baby, if it frets ; and if they do not feel spirits to make an attractive BISCOUETEOUSNESS. 147 toilette in the morning, or have not the airy, graceful fancies... that they had when they were girls, it is not so very much against them. A housekeeper and nursery- maid cannot be expected to be quite as elegant in her toilette and as entertaining in her ways as a girl with- out a care in her father's house ; but I think that this is no excuse for husbands neglecting the little civilities and attentions which they used to show before marriage. They are strong and well and hearty ; go out into the world and hear and see a great deal that keeps their minds moving] and awake ; and they ought to entertain their wives after marriage just as their wives enter- tained them before.
