A DREADFUL BOTHER TO BE A WOMAN. 1t is & dreadful bother to boa woman and do the business up in good shape. In the first place, you've got to look well or else you're nobody. A man may be ever 80 homely and still be popular. Whiskers cover up the moet of hls tace, and if he has a big mouth nobody mistrusts it, and if he does wrinkle bad on his forehead his friends speak of his many cares and of his thoughtful disposition, and tell each other that his wrinkles are lines of thought. Lines of thought, Indeed,when in all probability his forehead is wrinkled by the bad hablt he nas got of scowling at his wife when the coffee isn't strong enough. Buta woman must always be In good order. Her hair must always be felzzed and banged, as fashion demands, and she must powder if she has a shining skin; and she must always manage to look sweet, no matter how sour she may feel; her dress must hang just so, and her boot buttons always in place, and her finger nails slways clean; and then she mustn’t whistle, nor climb fences, nor stone cats, nor scold when she’s mad. That past experience teaches There'll be once more, Just as of yore, Damnation at the beaches, And, sad to tell, He knows full well Who his experience searchos, There's often been, Plain to be seen, Damnation in the churches, —[Exchange.
