"a little. We have to fight our ac-

America we put up with foreign ac-

The Superior
Sex
By FRANCES L. GARsIDE.

Man is so conceited that if a
lV woman refuses to kiss him he
attributes her objection TO
propriety; she wouldn't kiss any
man! He never thinks that she might
kiss others, but wouldn't kiss him.
A mans idea of chivalry is to pro-
tect woman from every man but
himself.
Nothing makes one of the superior
sex more angry than to arrive at
home with something to growl about,
find company there and be compelled
to be pleasant.
There is nothing more nor less than
plain common jealousy at the bottom
of every mans objection to his wifes
religion.
After man has eaten the good
dinner his wife has prepared he be-
gins to look at her critically because
she is wearing her kitchen clothes
There never was a man so honest
that he will say to his wife, Where
did l put my hat?" He always says,
w mere nave yOu put NY Hal
Laugh at a mans jokes, even II you
have heard them before. Laugh long
and merrily because you are not his
wife and have to hear them every
day.
It takes a man to grumble because
dinner is not ready and then become
interested in a newspaper and keep
dinner waiting till II is cold.
If men would tell their true
thoughts, women would run from
them.
II a man is blind and deaf and
dumb and sits in a corner, then his
wife should have faith in him.
The colonies who have never been
in the army, the majors who have
never enlisted, and the captains who
| have smelled neither powder nor sal,
water are among the vast number Of
men who laugh at the woman who
borroWs finery.
