MAXIMS FOR THE MARRIED.

Since you are married you may as well make the best of it. So make some maxims and try to live up to them.
Never cease to be lovers. If you cease, some one else may begin.
Never both be cross at the same time. Wait your turn.
You were gentleman and lady before you were husband and wife. Don't forget it.
Keep yourself at your best. It is a compliment to your partner.
Keep your ideal high. You may miss it, but it is better to miss a high one than to hit a low one.
Permanent mutual respect is necessary for a permanent mutual love.
The tight cord is the easiest to snap.
