Reflections of a Bachelor.

Before marriage man promises to
refuse his wife nothing, and after mar
riage that's about all the poor woman
gets.
A wise man is just as anxious to get
out of matrimony as a single man is to
get into it,
wife always kicks when her hus-
band stays out late at night, but an old
maid thinks a husband is better late
than never.
II man really loves woman he will
give up smoking, but if she really loves
him she will not ask it..
It is usually pretty hard to gather a
womans meaning from her words.
Many man has kept his New Year
resolution by dying on Jan. ..
