Excerpt from A Wife by Advertisement: An Entirely New and Original Farce, in One Act Madge. Well, Clyde dear, you haven't to go to that odious Custom House to-day, have you?

Hardly so bad as that, ducky; you know I never go till nearly eleven o'clock, and nearly always return about half-past two or three. Madge. Yes; but consider how terribly hard you have to work during that time. Now, What do you really do in the office?
