    I note that numbers 1,2,3,5,6,7 and 8 are equally applicable to men.

    Regarding #9, I’d be interested to know (A) what a proteid is (it doesn’t have an entry in Wikipedia) and (b) what kind of indigestible things John liked to eat in 1903.

    Cheez Whiz (for example) hadn’t been invented yet.

    I regard this, from my dispassionate, impersonal standpoint, as a ludicrous little piece of fluff. A really truly one.

    I kind liked this. Except for the part about the budget, it gave me the idea that some women then, like some women now, were in need of some indirect chiding.

    But I cant say that I would “present” money I saved from the budget to my husband. I would just put it in our adoption jar and get on with the day.

    The “proteids” are the best part. Apparently whoever was writing this needed to “cultivate her mind”. Assuming it was a woman who wrote this, of course…
