THE NICE YoUNc WonAN.-Ths nice young
woman goes to bed when other people are
getting up doats upon Don Juan and thinks he
must have written Walkers Dictionary, cop
les all the faults and none of the virtues
Of the cultivated woman; wonders where pork
and beans grew, and thinks it singular that
eggs don't break in falling from the trees;
covers the legs of her piano, and shuts the
moon out Of her bedroom, because there is a
man in it; prides herself upon delicate health,
and always gets up nervous fit when there
is handsome fellow near who understands
her case; adores Italian music, and never
could live through an English opera, calls
mamma "our cook" and wonder whom her
dirty little brother belongs to, falls desperate
lyin love with a pair Of incipient moustaches,
gets up Irritation by Economically clipping
with the bosom friend of both parties, and
comes to her senses some fine morning, by
finding herself deserted, her pockets empty
and long life of wearisome labor staring
her in the face! Who shall say this is not
the fate of many fullblooded, nice young
woman.
