Foibles Of Men and w omen.

The trouble in love affairs is that the
parties to it love too much to love long.
Some people give their confidence 80
others give presents, for the sake Of
what secrets they will be told in return.
Men judge mans religion by his ac-
tions outside the church, and the women
judge it by the brilliancy of his prayers
within.
Men are brutes; they have better
times occasionally without their wives,
and tell them So Women are hypo-
critics; they enjoy life without their
husbands once in a while, but they will
never admit that they were not mis-
arabic without them, -Atchison Globs,
