Woman,s Weapon.

Coarse man. adapting means to ends.

To woman. kindly Nature lends
That gentler weapon. fattery.
Twas "woman's way" to coax man
Until he knew none could resist him,
And then, subservient to her plan,
with ease around her finger twist him.
But when, at last. mankind caught on"
Fair woman knew his limitation
So now she makes her fattery don
The subtler mask of imitation.

For votes. just like mans. she

like man she rides: like man, methinks:

Futile Haste.

Three times a week she writes to me
And must ever send replies.
Because she would be panied, you see.
II proceeded otherwise:
she seems to have much time to waste,
Ger many sheets she spreads her
scrawl,
And always wind up: Yours in haste"
Although she IL not mine. at all.
She writes to me concerning those
Whom have never met nor seen.
As, II indeed. she might suppose
My interest In them was keen;
Oft has her crusty father chased
Me from his fair ancestral hall;
Yet her last words are: yours In haste"
Though she may ne'er be mine. at all.
It never serves to make me glad
To hear about her cousin Jane;
But yesterday, she wrote, her dad
Was stricken with the govt again;
wish she might have cared to waste
A hundred sheets. and filled them all.
Gre she had written: Yours In haste"
And hurried to obey his call.
