Der TOO small, aud not OF the right

then set about doing the whole duty
Of women with a cheerful face and
a spry air, for from fifteen to seven
teen mortal hours out OF the twenty

men who are not frightened into a
decline at such a prospect, and that
| they bravely undertake to do it.
nay, norc, that they even dream that
under such disadvantages they can
work side by side with unshackled

to do it, certainly says much for
their courage, bu. very little for
their common sense.

she must wear it, on account Of the
