The art of being a good husband is not an easy one. This little guide was written for the middle classes of the 1930s who were reading one of the first modern self-help books. Illustrated with contemporary line-drawings it contains advice by turns delightfully arcane & timelessly true for example: Don't squeeze the tube of toothpaste from the top instead of from the bottom. This is one of the small things of life that always irritates a careful wife. Don't think that your wife has placed waste-paper baskets in the rooms as ornaments. Don't tell your wife terminological inexactitudes which are in plain English lies. A woman has wonderful intuition for spotting even minor departures from the truth. Do cultivate the habit of coming down to breakfast with a smile. Remember that as the head of the house it is your duty to see that everyone starts the day in an atmosphere of happiness. Don't criticise the food at your own table when you are entertaining & especially refrain from doing so before the servants. ...

Illustrated with contemporary line-drawings it contains advice by turns delightfully arcane & timelessly true for example: It is a wife's duty to look her best. If you don't tidy yourself up when you have done the bulk of the day's work don't be surprised if your husband begins to compare you unfavourably with the typist at the office. Don't forget that a wife can always set the standard of behaviour for the home. If she allows laxities of dress or conversation at the table she will soon find that they become a fixed procedure. Don't forget that very true remark that while face powder may catch a man baking powder is the stuff to hold him. Don't criticise the food at your own table when you are entertaining & especially refrain from doing so before the servants. After all is said & done husbands are not terribly difficult to manage. ...
