Not many weeks ago, in the city, floral
concert was given by nearly one hundred
children. Among these were fine sturdy
boys, WITH deep chests brood sho!ders, and
figures erect and symmetrical But the fair

cried out that she had contracted a stoop

Difficult Question Answered.

An exchange asks if anybody can tell
why, when Eve was manufactured from
one of Adams ribs, hired girl wnsn't
made at the same time to wait on her ? !"
The Lifs Illustrated answers this question
as follows;
We can, easy! Because Adam never
came whining to Eve with ragged stock
ing to be daaued, a colIar string TO be sewed
on, or glove to be rnenaed "right away,
quick, now !" Because he never read the
newspaper until the sun got down behind
the palm trees, and then stretched himself
yawning out, "Ain't supper most ready,
my dear?" Not he. Het made the fire
and hung over the tea-kettle hinaself, we1l
venture, and pulled the radishes, and peel
ed the bananas, and did everything else
that he'd ought to /! He MIXED the cows,
and fed the chickens, and looked after the
pigs himseE He Gewer brought home
half a dozen friends to dinner when Eve
hadn't any fresh pomegranates, and the
mango season was overt lie never stayed
out till eleven o'clock to ward meeting,
hurrahing for the out aad ogt candidate,
and then scolded because poor dear Eve
was sitting up and crying inside the gates.
To be sure he acted rather cowardly about
apple-gathering time, but then that don't
depreeiate his general hopefulness about
the garden He never played billiards
nor drove fast horses, nor choked Eve with
cigar smoke. He never loafed around cor.
ner groceries while Eve was rocking little
| Cams cradle at home. In short, he did moi
think she was specially created for the pur-
pose of waiting on him, and wasn't under
the impression that it disgraced man tc
tighten his wife's cares a little. That's tho
reascn that Eve did not need hired girl
and we wish it was the reason that none Of
her fair descendants did
