ABOUT MEN AND WOMEN.
Doth Have Their Taiiings, nat, Ac-
cordinw to This Writer, Men Are
At . DIsadvnntage.

Women were put here to make the
world look pretty, though the fashion
papers have never guessed this, says =
facetious writer
They are fond Of dressing. except at
dances and dinner parties. A great
traveller once met a lady friend, whom
he had not seen for many years at
dance. why, how you have altered,
said the lady. Il declare | should not
have known you from Adam Nor ]
you" retorted the man, from Eve"
Another hobby is talking, They are
quite us garrulous when sober as men
are when in their cups, and their con-
versation is often just as well worth
hearing.
As rule, they have more heart than
head. This is apt 10 render them
thoughtless. A woman will walk TO
the end Of street then turn sharply
round without looking to see whet her
there is anyone Immediately behind
her, and as a consequence gouge your
eye out with the end Of her sunshade.
Sometimes she will beg your pardon,
but have known one TO just hip the
eye Of the ferrue into the gutter and
sail serenely c.a without saying =
word.
Men are what women marry. They
drink and smoke and swear, and have
ever so many pockets, but won't go TO
church. Perhaps il they wore bonnets
they might. They are more logical
than women. and also more geological.
Both men and women have sprung
from monkeys, but the women certain
ly sprang farther than the men.

year,
The makers follow the primitive
processes which were In use $50 years
ago. The stems are taken from the
leaves and the latter put into box,
under heavy gradual pressure. This
causes the juice to run out, even
through the wood Of the boxes. A
gradual process OF fermentation and
curing takes place.
At the end Of three months The to-
bacco is rolled into carrots" and
wrapped il cloths. tightly bound with
ropes. 1t Is left in that way for q
year before 1t il ready for market
The flavor OF perique is considered
delicious by all pipe smokers, but is
too strong. The tendency Of smokers
Is continually toward lighter and
lighter tobacco, and perique Is now
used almost solely for mixing with
very mild tobaccos to flavor it.
