TREFARMER's WEATHER BUREAU

At last the horny-handed son of toll has
his rights;
No longer need he awake on warm or
frosty nights
To wonder what the morrow will bring
forth from the sky
He's got the weather bureau now beneath
his weather eyel
He's got it where he wanted it for aye in
spite of jeers,
For there's not farmer in the land who,
10 these many years,
Couldn't take look at bedtime and sniff
the wind and say,
Truer than weather bureaus, what the
weather'd be next day
No more the gold-laced officer shall deal
the weather out
To the man who lives by honest toll and
also sauer kraut;
No more now shall the good wife who

1t is evident that women as we now
find them are very far from being per-
feet and angelic beings. In the matter
of pecuniary honesty, while they are far
above men, they have hitherto had far
less of temptation or opportunity than
men. In lawless races, as the English
gypsies, where women have great free
dom, this distinction does not exist. On
the contrary, while the mems range of
action in this respect goes no farther
than cheating in o horse trade, to the
women alone is intrusted what is known
as "the great trick" by which all the
silver of an unsuspecting family is ap-
propriated under pretense Of changing
1t into gold. There is no reason TO sup
pose that women are not capable Of
being dishonest; and there is every rea-
son to suppose that whenever they
become so, the recognized sharpness of
the feminine wit will place them high
up in their chosen vocation. Expert
enced critics declare that no swindling
device ever contrived in this country
was more skillful than the "Woman's
Bank" long conducted in Boston. Nay,
it will be remembered that after its
frauds had been thoroughly exposed
magazine articles were still written in
its defense by perfectly upright women
and those who had aided in Its expo
sure were severely censured. Without
doubt there are women who still believe
in it and regard its protector as being
the unappreciated philanthropist she
called herself.
