The south Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1879-1883, 1880-05-25
Woman,

After long and continued study oil
the animal, we have arrived at the
unanimous conclusion that W oman IL
the most peculiar of all existing. Its
got more qualities of different kinds
than any other animal. Sometimes
you'll find 1t as meek AZ a young
sheep; at other times you'll find II
livolier than u Comanche Indian IN a
war dance. Its generally more ap-
proachable when it's in a good hu-
NOR; but when once aroused 10 the
highest pitch Of mad, Its nature kind
OF changes, and It's pretty hard then
to tell whether ii 8 woman or some
other animal.
They can all talk and they gencr.
ally do the most OF their talking in
daytime and at night; but they're
generally more fluent at night and
next morning when The audience
doesn' get home until late hour.
As business men, women are hard
10 beat-ene ofthem can buy more
store. goods than Eve men can.
Women, as general thing, are
good looking, In some instances
amounting to pretty II Ia said BY
those who have seen them In all their
native wildness that IN beauty Of
symmetry they surpass horse. m
Women are also likewise uscful to
the other side OF mankind In various
ways; IN fact, as a companion to
man, she fils that station better than
man can himself And ii you take
one when II is young and train 1t up
right, she makes the incest pet In the
world. But they generally do their
own training.
AS u housewife. she is incompara-
bly, better than man-shes u sew
ing machine, a c00k-stoye, a school
marin, ply sician and lecturer, all In
one.
When and how this beautiful ani-
NAL was discovered isn't exactly
known, but II our memory serves US
right, II was some time ago-perhaps
longer than that. The discovery
was made by party by the name OF
Adam. We have forgotten his other
name but think It was Adam, too)
Adam was born of poor but respecta-
BILE parents. lie was a German, and
there wasn't more honest. qnicter
aud better natnred man In his vicini-
ty and he was good gardener. g,i
AT the tins of the discovery Adam
was returning home In the evening
with himself and bag OF grist on his
mule. As he was passing through
his orchard he saw something stand
ing under All apple tree about to
pluck all apple. Adam told the thing
it had better not eat apples off OF that
tree, TINT II she did she would be n
dead man before morning; that they
were poison. But the animal, which
afterwards proved to be a. woman,
had her own way, and she not only
pluckcd one off and nte of 1t herself,
but also finally sednced Adam to take
a bite.
Now this animal was very pretty.
Adam had never seen anything like
It. lie wanted TO catch It and take Il
home and after his agreeing to take
bite of the apple she held in her
hand, she allowed him 10 catch her,
which he did; and no hadn I any
sooner caught her than he married
hcr, which was the first time In Ills
life he ever was In hurry. And
ever since that romantic episode
Adam has been frowned upon by the
papers ofthe country as n very bad
man; whether it's because he eat the
apple or married without u license,
we don't know.
[NorE,-We give the above to our
readers as forotaste OF the highly
interesting and instructive Lecture
on Woman" We propose TO write
for next winters delivery. There's
no use in a persons loing a great
man If he doesn't lecture.-Statt
