MANS SORROWS.
An Essay by One Whom Some Would
Call a A.isogynist.

1880
There is much sorrow in the world, and
mon have their full share of it. Women
weep theirs away, but men hold on to
theirs, as they do to most things. The
trouble generally is that two men often
want the same thing, and then one bests
the other. This may not be thought the
case in the matter of sorrow, but it is SO
- rule. More than one man will want
sorrow; SO, men, it will be we'll to give her
up to the other man, and our advice to the
other man is-giye her up too.
Now, who can honestly say that any one
woman is the best or prettiest woman in
the world? Men do say such a thing but
then all men are liars, and woman being
an accomplished relater of fairy tales, adj
mires them for that. Butas no man knows
all women fortunately he can only judge
those whom he does know, and he must
take the Odds which are millions to one
against him, that his girl is not the best
or the prettiest in the world.
This being a moral certainty, why quar-
rel over any woman? Look ahead ton years,
and you will be willing to undo the past
and start fresh, with the certain knowl-
edge that your estimate was quite wrong.
knowledge comes with years, and you and
the woman are older, and she no longer
believes you to be either the best, the
handsomest or the bravest of your sex,
and her opinion comedies with that of the
rest of the people.
And look at the way woman treats man.
One hears a little of wife beaters-men
who are nagged to distraction, as a rule
but who protects man in his earlier stages
of growth against the maudlin mother,
the severe sister, the angry aunt OF the
nihilistic nurse? His pink body is made q
receptacle for pins; he is delivered over to
those fends, the kissi- kissis; he is pinched,
smacked and strapped up; his hair is torn
out by ruthless combs; his skin is sandpa-
pered. He, the young lord of creation,
is allowed no freedom of action at all, and
the wonder is that he can ever bear to
look at q woman after this.
If he should choose to tear his Clothes
why should woman force him to the tub?
He is not free agent from his birth to
his death, for at the last he is worried to
save bit for the girl he leaves behind
him and to go without pleasures to enable
him to do this.-Pick Me Up
