maids in the following manner 81 am inclined to
believe, that many of the satircal aspersons cast
upon old maids tell more to their credit than is
generally imagined Is woman remarkably neat
Lin her person I" She will certainly die an old maid ;?
lis she particularly reserved towards the other sex
l. She has all the squeamishness of an old maid
she frugal in her expences and exact in her domestic
concerns? " She is cut out for an old maid And il
she is kindly humane to the animals about her
nothing can save her from the appelation of an
|oid maid In short, have always found that neat
mess, modesty, economy, humanity, are the never
fading characteristics of that terrible creatare ar
( old maid.'
