As A Woman Thnketh-

What a quaint, old-fashioned
world it was
When we were ten years younger!
When the Maxine and the Turkey

And the sheath skirt and the
peek boo waist" seemed deli
ciously piquant.
And you could still get a luxurious
and intoxicating thrill from riding
in a taxicab, or going to a studio

When 10 eat your way through a
red ink table d'hote" was being a
bohemian" and TO know how to
curl spaghetti round your fork was
the height Of sophistication-
When that wicked opera, That's, &"
was denounced from the platform.
And that wicked dance. The
Bunny-Hug.' was mathematical
from the pulpit.
And that stimulating jazz was just
beginning to set the world by the
ears!
Oh, the glad. mad world it was!
And. oh. the pep" we had, and
the things we said and did, and the
dreams we dreamed
When we were ten years younger:
When we sang those cynical
songs.
MY wife's gone to the country
and My wife won't let met and
NO Wedding bells for me!"-and
all that sort Of thingi
When prohibition was a Joke, E"
and the favorite quip was the one

When a grass-widow was still

Girls smoked their cigarets on

Reflections Of
4 Bachelor Girl

Every man is a "Narcissus" when
he is looking into a pretty woman's
eyes.
If a blonde had only two more
hours 10 live. she would spend one
hour and SO minutes in doing her
hair.
Half the world is asking, What
do you set out of marriage ?'-and
the other half, How do you get out
of it,"
A man is never quite as brilliant
as a woman thinks he is. before
marriage, nor quite as stupid as she
thinks he is, after marriage.
There is something about nice
new check book that always gives
a woman self-important feeling
even when she has Just overdrawn
her balance at the bank.
Eve offered Adam the apple-and.
ever since, woman's punishment has
been 10 have to supply a man with
food. and then 10 suffer the conse-
.quences when it disagrees with him.
Snob: one who would rather be
run over by the Vanderbilts tour
ing car, than 10 be seen riding in
the O'Hooligan's flivver.
No man has lost his beautiful
faith in human nature, so long as
he can look in the mirror, when his
face is covered with shaving lather
and his top hair sticking up in
tufts, and still believe that some
woman loves him for himself, alone.
A married man is always buster
than a bachelor. because he has to
spend half his time in explaining
the things which he spends the
other half in thinking up excuses
for doing.
Introducing an egotist TO a bril-
liant woman is merely casting swine
before pearls.

The novelist took up his pen TO write

and let the masses wonder;
III put some novel curly cues upon
the ancient passion
And make il once again the modish
rage and ruling fashion"
But editors declared his book a light
and taste}ess bubble,
Whose reading was a source OF
naught but void and empty
trouble.
The sculptor seized a ton Of rock
and said: III call TO being
A piece of statuary eminently worth
the seeing.
III TT it with a mystic name and
make a grand impression;
III function as the mead and front
Of my refined profession
But when he'd wrought the miracle
with his unrivalled chisei,
The experts all endorsed il as a
failure and a fizzle.
The father took his little son and
by intensive labors
Endeavored To excel the horrid chill
dren Of the neighbors.

be a bird and screamer.
