HIS HEART THE SAME
September s.-I see, by looking
back to my last entry. that intended
to write letter to Sally, and didn't.
This doesn't indicate that my heart
has wavered In the least, but all the
emotions that sway the men don't
originate in the heart / am quite
sure from the talk the suffragette
gave me yesterday, that most of them
originate in the. stomach and never
rise any higher.
/ have always thought my sex a
pretty decent sort considering our
temptations, bu the suffragette gives
us all the vices, and none of the vir-
tues. / took exception with her,
claiming for the man one virtue the
women these days don't seem to
possess, and that is the virtue of
modesty.

the back of my neck makes il a little
hard to turn, has never appeared
with a slit skirt, and that she wears

starched as stifiy as the newly fallen
autumn leaves, and make as much

IF men are bad I said to the suf-
fragette, "the women help make them
so.r

begin With she retorted.
