Why Women should Vote.

Because one sober woman walking to the poll
is better than fifteen men reeling there.
Because women would be content with smaller
bribes than men, and thereby save candidates
deal of expense.
Because men have had the franchise so long,
and have made such mess of it, that women
ought to be allowed trial.
Because no woman would spend the greater
part of her bribe in intoxicating liquors, and
thereby would set a good example to male
voters.
Because women, if much longer denied the
franchise, will spitefully degenerate into men,
wear male attire use male language, adopt male
imprecations, build male clubs, and refuse to
dance in step
Because, though there have been hundreds of
Votaresses in the world, not one has been allowed
80 record her vote at elections
Because mothers in possession of the fran
ehise would be able to say, IF you'll marry one
of my daughters, Mr.. Allgold, I'll give you my
vote and interest"
Because |, who write these reasons, want to
give a vote for dear Captain --. All! wouldn't
you like to know his name?

We met with an odd misprint in country
newspaper the other day. 1t statedth that young
lady at an amateur concert had won Nell-de-
served encore by the exquisite taste with which
she sang the well-worn old song, AN Angels
Whistler" This is nearly as good as the famous
paragraph which, by the substitution of a 'c'
for an IN, made a railway train run over q COW,
and ''cut it into cdlCeS.' We read once, too, in
an account of an assault case, that
the medical witness, on examining the
complainant's head. found an nciscd wound
there which was 1.-TWO inches long and some feet
deep" ''Some feet" was a misprint for ''some-
what" very badly written. The reporter was
ScOtchman, and, having missed the exact depth
of the wound, had cautiously indulged in n
vague generality. Dean Stanley stated at a
public meeting a few months ago, that cor
respondent once wrote to him to ask what he
meant by passage in one of his works contain
ing the words ''the horns of the burning BEAST
On reference, he found that this was the humor-
Gus way in which printer had chosen to repro
duce the thorn of the burning BUSH"
