PROFESSIONAL FOR WIVES.

Boss Of our fathers, feared of Old.
Known by the farhung rolling PIN
Yet in your ears soft tales were told
When man set for;h yonr hand to
win.
A helpmeet then yen vowed to be
Through his prosperity or debt;
You said none was so grand as he
Lest you forget; lest you forget
AS our of chaos worlds were formed
And out Of darkness burst the light
So you upon mans vision swarmed
And charmed him with your glanc-
es bright:
He never dreamed your slender hand
A grim grip on his hair would get,
We mention this. you understand
Lest yon forget; lest you forget,
The umult and the shoutings rise
The captains and the kings depart
When from your hand the sauce pan
flies,
l'nerring as fin;tippel dart
When man comes home at 3 a. m.
BY no glad welcome is he met.
Sad facts, We merely mention
them,
Lest you forget; lest You forget
The floral letters fade 10 gives,
Romance throws up its hands and
SWoOns
When we are told how many wives
Are wearing hHhbgs pantalaons
o. woman, go and cook the meals
Or else life's scheme viii be upset.
We only send up these appeals
Lest you forget lest you forget
