PIeasantries Concerning the Fair Sex.


The woman caught in a shower with her
new bonnet and no umbrella can never be
persuaded that the rain was needed.
The world is always interested to know the
last words of man. 1t doesn't care so much
about those of woman. She has had her
last word all through life.-Boston Tran
script.
''The greatest source of weakness TO every
nation under Heaven" said philosopher,
"comes from the women having so little to
do and so much to say" That man is a
grabbed old bachelor.
A Cincinnati widow sued doctor for cat
ting up the body of her husband and not
saving the pieces, damages laid at $1,000;
but the jury held that dead husband had
had damages enough.
A Siamese nobleman has just been behead-
ed for marrying an English girl. When
American girls are beheaded for marrying
English noblemen there will be fewer un-
happy women in the country-Norristown
Herald.
A young pastor who has recently had son
born to him notifies brother pastor as fol-
lows: "'Unto US child is born; unto us
son is given.-Is. go" 1t was written on
postal card. The receiver showed the mes
sage to a sister in his church. "Ah, yes"
said the woman, after reading it, 'it weighed
niEe pounds six ounces"

why Ladies Can't Sharpen Lead Pencils

why hduics Odhb oiidrpeu Ledu fencns-
A lady contributor to the Californian
thinks she knows why a woman can not
sharpen lead pencil: "In the first place
she doesn'. attack it boldly enough; she is
afraid Of soiling her RINGERS. Then she never
has sharp knife" Let her borrow, say
you. The California lady has tried that
with this: "If Adam, the husband, or Adon.
is, the brother, or even Johnny, the first son,
lends knife for the purpose, he first opens
the dullest, brokenest blade, and then sneers
at the result. If Eve has knife of her own,
nobody will sharpen it for her." and it goes
without saying that she can not sharpen il
herself 81 have" continues this lady, ''seen
a woman sharpen a pencil with carving
knife, but that was an extreme case" For
ney's Progress wonders if this writer, who
seems so willing to betray the peculiarities
of her sex, can explain whya woman's watch
never goes. Of course, one reason is that it
is never wound up, but why it is not is what
puzzles the Progress. Most watches now-a-
days are stem-winders, so the almost-lost
key is no longer an excuse.
