iWives Hate 3-ive Away Some Secrets Natalie Moorhead ( r i g h 1 1 : "The woman wives should hate is some other wife who is a mother as well as a wife." Evelyn Brent (left'i : "There are things wives hate far more than they hate other women" 7 Fri-er The successful new gown. The successfully swedished figure. The grouping of watchful wives who. foolishly secure, had "let themselves go." She laughed and said, "xMy dear, hozv the wives haled me.'" And we went on from there: The Things Wives Hate. Deadly and dangerous women. Youth. Clothes. Charm some have forgotten or never had . . .

"This innocuous, lilac type is the very one a trusting wife will invite to spend the year with her. She spends the year and when she leaves — hubby leaves with her. Helpless Home-Wreckers "HPHE type wives should hate is the helpless one who makes J_ it her business to invite protection. All men love to feel that they are strong, that they are necessary.
