The Manicure
Lady
By WILLIAM r. KIRK.

kETX THFRED Is going with a suf-
w fragette now said the Man.
icure Lady He met her at
a lecture on poetry and other pastimes
the other night, and guess she must
be different from most of the suffra-
gettes that 7 have saw. because VIII
fred says she is queen and that she
walks in beauty like the night. what
ever kind Of way to walk that is. He
don't call her hair hair at all. he calls
1t her tresses, and instead OF talking
about her swell lamps he says she has
limpid orbs. I have had a lot of ad-
mirers. George, but none OF the gents
that ever shined up to me called my eyes
orbs. That orb line OF tank might
have went in the old days. but plain
talk and a good bankroll wins more of
us trusting girls nowadays.
It's funny, George, how love win diff
fer a man. The girl fellow loves can
make him change his mind quicker than
he changes his tie. Wired used to be
fierce against the sufrragettes- He wrote
battle hymn, he called It, for all the
men to sing. a kind of a bark against
women even daring to think of having
the sacred right OF the ballot
Il guess he didn't get no men TO sing
It. but It was an awful panninE for the
girls that wanted to vote. And the
time the suffragettes had their parade
through the city not very long ago, VII
fred ran along with the rest OF the cut
ups and roasted the walking women as
hard as he could. That was always
Wilfred's speed anyhow, and 1 told him
so that night when he got home all tired
and hoarse, and the next time he asked
me for five and I turned him down fat.
Wen anyhow, as I was saying. this
new girl Of his has got him shouting
for what she calls the cause, and he
and father had a regular row at the
table last night. The old gent amt so
good a talker as WIRED. but he had
| something on brother because he kept
all the time throwing UP TO Wilfred
how he used to knock the very cause
that he is plugging for now. There
amt much comeback to that kind of
arguments, and after a whre Wired
shut up. The row all started over a
fool poem that wilfred wrote last
night called Vote, Fair Woman, Vote
I brought it down to read IT to you"
You didn't have to DO that" said
the Head Barber.
but please listen, George" implored
the Manicure Lady. 'On the level, this
IS so bad IL IS good. Listen:
Vote, fair woman. votel
That right must not be denied TO
you.
Men try to trampIe on thy throat,
And often they have lied to you.
From where the vast Pacific rolls
To where the Atlantic holds each
boat
| Let us shout this cry, a million souls,
Vote, fair woman. vote;
vote. fair woman vote!
There is no reason why you
shouldn't,
Gladly would take or my coat
And work for you, only couldn't.
have so many tasks to DO.
The same as any wen known poet,
But this I ever shall sing To you:
Vote, fair woman, voter"
ibid he read that TO his new grip
asked the Head Barber.

She wasn't to home when he called
her up this morning"
