About Women.

We are told nothing was made in
vain; but how about a fashionable
girl? Is she not maiden vain?
Could any man Bee-chur-lish
enough not to approve of a Niceland-
ic custom of kissing all the girls one
meets.
Ten dollars was recently paid for a
single hair of Nilson's head. Per-
haps she can afford this kindof thing,
as she gets her husbands hair for
nothing.
Cotton fabrics are so low priced at
present that ladies who know how to
purshasc advantagclously arc supply
ing themselves with abundance of
material for under clothing.
Two rival bellies met at fancy
ball last winter. "How we'll you look
under candle light" exclaimed one.
"And how charming you arc in the
darkw said the other.
1t is declared to be good ground
of divorce for u woman to tic her
husband to gato-post during vio-
lent thunderstorm. with a patent
lightning rod hitchcd to his spinal
column.
A woman will reach up and pull at
a window sash for afcw seconds quite
good naturedly, but when it doesn't
come down and she turns around and
secs her husbandlooking comfortably
on, she mentally asks herself, 'Tsciv-
ilization u failurc?" and wadcs for
him.
Poor women! When they wear
loose, ample skirts, everybody con-
dems their extravaganza. Now that
the pretty and graceful tic-back skirt
comes in, the newspapers call it in
decent. Why, its the pretticst thing
in the way of dress since Eve left
Eden, and what's the use Of bowling
about it.
