eep it dark before marriage Cephas. It's astonishin' how the female sect despises bein' trained; it don't hardly seem to be in their nature to make any changes in 'emselves after they once gits started. How are you goin' to live with 'em then? Cephas inquired looking up with interest coupled with some incredulity. Let them do the training responded his father peacefully puffing out the words with his pipe between his lips. Some of 'em's mild and gentle in discipline like Parson Boone's wife or Mis' Timothy Grant and others is strict and firm like your mother and Mis' Abel Day. If you happen to git the first kind why do as they tell you and thank the Lord 't ain't any worse. If you git the second kind jest let 'em put the blinders on you and trot as straight as you know how without shying nor kickin' over the traces nor bolting 'cause they've got control o' the bit and 't ain't no use fightin' ag'in' their superior strength.--So fur as you can judge in the early stages o' the game my son--which ain't very fur--which kind have you picked out? Cephas whittled on for some moments without a word but finally with a sigh drawn from the very toes of his boots he responded gloomily-- She's awful spunky the girl is anybody can see that; but she's a young thing and I thought bein' married would kind o' tame her down! You can see how much marriage has tamed your mother down observed Uncle Bart dispassionately; howsomever though your mother can't be called tame she's got her good p'ints for she's always to be counted on,vans shoes. The great thing in life as I take it Cephas is to know exactly what to expect. Your mother's gen'ally credited with an onsartin temper but folks does her great injustice in so thinking for in a long experience I've seldom come across a temper less onsartin than your mother's. You know exactly where to find her every mornin' at sun-up and every night at sundown. There ain't nothin' you can do to put her out o' temper cause she's all out aforehand,vans sk8. You can jest go about your reg'lar business 'thout any fear of disturbin' her any further than she's disturbed a'ready which is consid'rable. I don't mind it a mite nowadays though after forty years of it,cheap vans shoes uk. It would kind o' gall me to keep a stiddy watch of a female's disposition day by day wonderin' when she was goin' to have a tantrum. A tantrum once a year's an awful upsettin' kind of a thing in a family my son but a tantrum every twenty-four hours is jest part o' the day's work. There was a moment's silence during which Uncle Bart puffed his pipe and Cephas whittled after which the old man continued: Then if you happen to marry a temper like your mother's Cephas look what a pow'ful worker you gen'ally get! Look at the way they sweep an' dust an' scrub an' clean! Watch 'em when they go at the dish-washin' an' how they whack the rollin'-pin an' maul the eggs an' heave the wood int' the stove an' slat the flies out o' the house! The mild and gentle ones enough will be settin' in the kitchen rocker read-in' the almanac when there ain't no wood in the kitchen box no doug
