Reflections OF an Old Maid.

From The Frederick News.
Men have ever been called the lords Of
creation" but it IS a settled fact that old
maids are the salt of the earth.
Most men burn up their love letters as Soon
as the honeymoon wanes, but those from
other girls they burn before marriage.
It's true that women often kiss, where
they don't love other women. But men
never kiss each other, hence they don't have
to be so hypocritical.
1t only takes man few days to make
up his mind to marry a woman, If he knows
he wont have to work hard after marriage.
EMlllard Stottlemyer, II years of age, was
arralgned before Justice Fowler, Southern
Police Station, Baltimore, on Friday last,
charged with begging on the street The
boy said he lived in Foxville, this county,
and that he was begging for enough money
to pay for his fare home. Stottlemyer claims
that he ran away from home about two
months ago to look for employment, and
about two months ago went down the bay
and became dredgcr. He continued at this
work until about two weeks ago. At that
time the boy stated that his hands became
frostbltten, thus compelling him to quit work
He then went to Baltimore and went to a
hospital for treatment. Stottlemyer claims
tina, he was discharged from the hospital Fri
day. Justice Fowler dismissed the charge
against the boy upon the latter's promise
that he would leave the city

Most women would rather burn up their

Ifwomen acted the way they felt, half the
times when they run together and kiss they
would bite each other.
