Thoughts while sewing.

Byan, Old Maid.-Men SOW wild oats, and
woman buttons.
The shortest way to mans heart is down his
throat
Mans love is like the moon-if it does not
grow larger, it is certain to grow smaller
A man may edo good by stealth,'' but as for
his blushing .to find at fame" that's all nom
sense. - e.ssszs.
Man slirinks from cold meat. Does this arise
from man 'sinnate presumption of always ruling
the roast!
Man takes woman with dowry in the same
way that he accepts the hamper that brings him
a handsome present of game.
Men have two ways of extinguishing the flame
of love-they either let it burn out quietly, OF
else they snuff it out by one blow.
In dilemma, during the time man has been
standing like fool, fumbling for an excuse, a
woman win have invented ten thousand.
Wives are often foolish enough to sit up for
their husbands, but yon hear of few husbands
who have the patience to sit up for their wives.
How many men are there who think they are
making themselves exceedingly popular when
they are only making themselves extremely ridi-
culons.
Men have been pointed out to me who were
said to be great thinkers. / have watched them,
and found them very great thinkers-men who
evidently thought great deal-but then it was
entirely about themselves.
An old maids only confident in is the pillow
All her care, wrongs, and thoughts, both sleep,
ing and waking, are confined to its soft embrace
It is the only depository and witness of the tears
that she sometimes shed over broken hopes
More than this,si isa confident that never mocks
never betrays her.
