Having referred to the Perfect Debutante,.it is only in accordance with the scheme of Progress, which so obviously governs the affairs of the world, that I should invite you, to consider the Perfect Woman, writes Showman in the "Daily Herald."
The Perfect Woman is required by the organizers of an annual hospital fête. They. want her to impersonate Eve in a procession, and, to prove that they know what they want, they have issued a list of ideal measurements.
OF course those measurements have some importance, though I was never too finicky about them myself. I mean an inch on here and an inch off there would not have made me draw aside with averted eyes. But. it has always seemed to me that the Perfect Woman cán be judged by one sanderd, and one only, which is her ability to recognize that she is married to the Perfect Man.
That is putting it generally. Il 1 have blushing readers' who need particulars for their guidance, let me add that the Perfect Man is..
Always right, Always generous and just, Never ill-tempered without cause which. is always supplied by his wife, Entitled to do what he likes at all times, Never to be bored by absurd requests to entertain his wife, And able to run the household much better than his wife, on half the money, So it is really very simple. The Perfect Woman has merely to marry a man, and repeatedly acknowledge his perfection as exemplified above.
I am sadly surprised that she is so rare.
