The Taming of Mary

They were an old married couple, yet she was jealous for it seemed to her that every woman they met had designs on her middle-aged husband. They went on a pleasure trip south, but he failed to enjoy himself; his wife would not let him. Then with the aid of a friend, he decided to make one desperate effort to cure his wife of her foolishness. The wife received a letter one day, signed "a friend," enclosing the photograph of her husband and a beautiful woman, and from appearances they were very much in love with each other. "A friend" explained that he would enable them to confront the brazen creature if she so desired, and told her where to meet him. She was promptly on hand at the appointed hour, armed with a horsewhip, willing and eager to get her name in the newspapers. She met the woman, but did not lift a hand to her. No, it was not her husband's long lost sister, but under the circumstances, the wife could not wax angry. Furthermore it taught her a lesson and she stopped being jealous, for the best way to cure such a woman is to make her ridiculous and that was exactly what happened in this case.
