DOMESTIC STRATEGY.
Mr. Meanly. My dear, I see that The People's Adviser is inviting its readers to send details of their individual food reforms for publication. Pour encourager les autres. Just tell me what our rules are.
Mrs. Meanly. Certainly, dear. We have meat only on two days a week; potatoes only on two days a week (and so on).
Mr. Meanly. Good. I will write a letter. And then the day after it appears in print you might send out invitations to dinner. There are a lot of arrears to make up and we'll clear them off now. Say a series of three parties.
Mrs. Meanly. But, dear, ought we to do it in war-time?
Mr. Meanly. After the publication of our system of meals, it will be quite safe to send the invitations, my love.
