ABOUT WOMEN

No women are SO self-righteous as
those who have never been tempted.
When a woman wishes to give an
other woman a cat scratch she says.
How well you are looking. You
must have gained 10 pounds since I
saw you last
The wife and mother who is indis-
pensable to her family has yet to be
born.
There are two secrets that every
woman can keep-her age and what
bait she used in catching her hus-
band.
The post valuable talent that any
woman can possess is to be born with
the ability to weep without getting
her nose red.
A woman loves man for what he
Is. A man loves woman for what
he imagines her to be.
Only fools laugh at the spectacle of
a woman coddling and kissing a dog
or canary bird. The wise weep over
the poverty OF heart that has noth-
ing better on which to expend itself.
The difference between a child that
is an imp and one who has a wonder
full, inquiring mind is the difference
between mine and thine
Nature has not given every old hen
the brains to understand the swan
she has Matched out.

A FICTIONLESS FABLE

There was once a woman whom
Life hurt 1t drained her heart of
joy and left it empty and throbbing
She bore it moaning for a time and
then she set about filing sthe empty
shell. She seized upon all the things
that lay near at hand and packed
them tightly into the throbbing lone
Illness or her barren heart.
There were Cards and Song and
Dancing and Wine and Gay Compan-
ions and Loud Merry Making. and
she forced them ala motley COM
pany-into the cold emptiness of her
desoluation. Oblivion and the for
getfulness she sought did not come.
but fever and excitement kept her
brain whirling far away from the
sadness of reality.
1t chanced one day that True Love
passed by, and he stopped at the door
of her heart. He Knocked, but the
ears of her Soul were dulled with
minstrelsy and its eyes were blinded
by the glare and glitter OF revelry.
so neither Heart nor Soul could tell
the woman that he who stood with
out was True Love.
At last-and timidly-Love opened
the door of the Heart that offered
him no welcome, but when he saw
how crowded that Heart was with
tinsel and paste jewels he sighed,
Alas! there Is no room for me- and
went his way.
And the woman went on playing
that she was happy and content.
But Love-hurt and s1ighted-
would not pass that way again for
fsvermore
