Ho did not wed a suffragist
When caught in Cupid's not,

Tholr household goods they set;'

Except n kitchenette.
Their meals woro also whittled down
For lack of room to lot,
With brcakfastotto and limclicoiiotto
And lastly Olnnorctto,
But from thin pntont sort of llfo
Results were very plain;

On tho dining room wall thoro Is to
