ETERNAL DISH WASHING.

We may in this item be repeat
ing to our lady readers a tiresome
truth, but it will show them that
at least one editor appreciates
their real condition in life. The
quiet fidelity with which "she''
will dish wash her life away for
chin" is a marvel Of endurance
and grace. Just here is the servi-
tude of woman the greatest. No
sooner is her work done than it
requires to be done again Man
works up jobs, ends them, and
takes his pay. This pay can be
translated into something else de-
sirable. A man works all day and
draws pay for his day work. This
pay alIures him, as oats a horse,
homeward bound. Thus men
work by terms and jobs; and al
though work is endless as to
quantity, yet when cut up thus in
to terms and jobs, we men 60
