Revenge and mischief in domestic tales across papers

A collage of humorous dialogue from old newspapers centers on marriage dynamics and social satire. Jokes portray wives disciplinarian in the home, husbands as bric-a-brac subjects, and the idea that becoming a husband is like forming a habit rather than a bond.
