WOMEN ARE WOMEN.

A Rather Roundabout Way to Prove
the Proposition.
Men say women are angels; women
say women are cats. Let US pause a
moment and reason upon this thing.
II women are angels-however, that
does not seem to be the proper start
ing point. Let us try again.
If angels are cats-but, no; that Is
hardly reasonable, for angels have
wings, and cats do not fly. We must
begin again.
II women are cats-but that isn't
possible, for cats do not talk, and how
could a dumb animal express an opin-
ion In words Of woman? Whatever
cats may think, they never say a word
about n woman, while women-well.
women are not cats.
Now let us return to the first propo-
sition.
If women are angels. they wouldn't
say women are cats. Angels don't
talk that way.
Once upon a time q man married a
woman. He said she was an angel:
the women said she was cat. Happy
man, not to know the difference be-
tween an angel and cat!
Men say women are angels. ana Oy
this token women say angels are cats.
Therefore. angels being cats. cats
must be angels. and. both being the
same, women are women.
Which is precisely what they are

The best way to destroy ordinary
black Runpowder Is to throw It into a
stream under conditions that prevent
any harm coming to human beings Or
animals through the dissolying Of the
saltpeter. If no suitable stream ID
available, the gunpowder may be stir
red with water in tubs, or the dry gun,
powder may be poured out on the
ground in long thin line and ignited
with fuse at one end. ;.s
To destroy dynamite cartridges the
paper wrappings should be carefully
removed, the bare cartridges laid In a
row with their ends in contact and the
first cartridge ignited with O. fuse with
ont cap. Even with these precau-
lions simultaneous explosion of the
entire mass may occur, so that It Is
wise to retire to safe distance. The
row OF cartridges should be laid paral-
lei with the wind and Iignited at the
leeward end, SO that the fame will be
driven away from the mass. 49, m,@
Frozen dynamite should be handled
with special care, as its combustion is
peculiarly liable to assume an explo-
sive character. A small quantity Of
dynamite may be destroyed by throw
ing It in very small bits into an open
dre. or the cartridges may be exploded
one by one in the open air with fuses
and caps. r SGS&5T r GG$1E
n Dynamite should never be thrown
into water, as the nitroglycerin which
It contains remains undissolved and
