A HUSBANDS CONFESSION.
Yesterday Mirandy voted.

Yesterday Mirandy voted.
But SO far / haven't noted
That she's sprouted any whiYkcrs or
adopted trouserettes;
And she hasn't indicated
Since she got emancipated
That she means to start out ra,dinE
with bunch of suffragcttes.
Took her half an hour to do 1t,
And us soon as she was through 1t,
She went hustling home without n
stop to scrub the pantry floor
Cooked the dinner. did some baking.
Trimmed dress that she was max
ing.
Mended socks and got the ironing all
done by halr.past four.
She appears to be as able
To keep victuals on the table
And to keea the moths from feeding
on my go-to-meeting coat
Just as handy with the baby
Tor little more SO. maybe)-
As she was before they told her wo-
man ought to have the vote.
Far as I've observed Mirandy.
Sho Is just as fond OF candy
And as keen to read the fashions and
the daily household hints
As before she was my equal"
And-however strange the sequel
I've been just a trine prcuder of MI
randy ever since.
