An Essay on Women.
Alter man came woman.
And she has been after him ever
since.
She is a person of noble extraction,
beinir made of man's rib.
I dmi't know why Adam wanted to
fool away his ribs in this way, but I
suppose he was not accountable for all
he. did.
' It co-ts more to keep a woman than
three duus and a shot gun.
Rut he psys you back in intf-re-t
by giving vou a hot:el'ull of children
to keep you awake all night and smear
mola.-se.s and candy over your Sunday
coat.
Resides a wife, is a very convenient
article to have r bout the house.
She is handy to swear at when you
cut yourself with a razor, and do?i't
feel like blaming vourself.
"Woman is the superior being in
Massachusetts.
Thereabout sixty thousand more of
lu r sex than male in that State.
This accounts fr tiie terrifu-d, hunted
j expression of the single men who emi
grated from the Eist.
Woman was not ere itod Perfect.
She has her faults such as false hair
and fa'se complexion, and so out.
Rat she is a jreat deal better than her
neighbor-;, -and she knows it.
Eve w:s a woman.
She tiiiit have been a model wife,
for it cost Aiiam iwthin:: to keek her
in clothes.
SmII I don't think they were a bit
happy.
She could'nt zo to sewing circles and
air her information about everlvdv she

by wearing her new wintct hat to
church.
Neither eoi Id she hang over the
back fence and gossip with her near
neighbor.
All the-e blesed privileges were de
prived her.
Poor Eve! She's dead now.
And the fashion she inaugurated is
dead too.

But the only place where the primi

when they have on but a po.-t-igo

head. Woman is endowp.d with a tremend
ous fund of knowledge arid a tongue to
suit.
She has a opacity fr learning every
thing she was divinely intended to
know, and a few extra items besides.
Young ladies take a great deal of
stock in classics and learn very fast.
When you s;'e a yotmir lady from
Vassal, with an absorbed look in her
'eves, and her lips moving, you under
stand at once. that, she is mcmorizinir a
pas-age from Virgil.
But. perhaps closer observation will
reveal the fact that she is only chewinsr

A woman may not he able to sharp

but she can pack more, articles in a
trunk than a man can in a one horse
wa'jon.
The happiest period of a woman's
life is when she is making her wed
ding gariNPirs.
The saddest is when her husband
conies home late at night and yells to
her from the fr.m. doorsteps to throw
out a bunch of key holes of different
sizes.
There is some curiosity in feninie na

could easily pass another one on the

It Is So Easy To Write For A Paper I
He was a friend of mine and used
frequently to drop in and give me advice
as to how I ouijht to run my paper.
He was a minister, and consequently
thought I should devote it a lbrle. more
to the eanse of teliiiiou, and mc qti'.fcu
o much tu pidi'ics.
lie said it would make a power fbr
rond in the Western land, in which wo
o -
had both cast our fortunes.
He was a lover of the origional, too,
and said he disliked to seft reprint, and
thought I should write more take the
time, iri lact, to Hi 1 the paper right up
wi'h sood new stuff. It se uied such an
easv thing for him that one day I ven
tured to say:
"Pr"thcr, vu ! d a gl r ous uic-t3ni

He flushed little and tnod around,
a.wkard like. He hd :ever been hon
ored with an invir-ition to write for the
press i-efore.
I then urged.
Then he took off his gloves and hat.
Then I gave him a seat at the table, with
paper and pencil.
He sat down to editorial work.
He was always talking about how it
should be done and now he was at it.
Ho started in.
I went about my work, and, having
written up a column or two of matter
for the day's paper, left him still writ
ing, while I went out to solicit some advertisement-.
I was if one an loir or ,nd whn.
I came back he was si-l at it.
He was sw eating awfully.
His eyes weiv bem oo t e d zzliiv

I knew I had only a small weekly pa
per, and that, its fourteen columns of
space (one side was a patent inward)
would not hold the contents of the Hi 1;
and supplimeinary incs ages from Heav
en ba-ides.
At la-t the man looked up and timid
ly advanced with a piece of paper in
one hand, and suddenly went hack tr
chanje a word.
Then he came on ngain, and like one
who I. ad passed through a vision, held
out a piece of paper and boldly
nske.ii;
"Will thatdD?"
I looked at it.
Tin r- were just seven lines of it ad

He was a large man, weighing over
300 pounds then but when 1 met him
three week later he weighed less than
155.
He had been sick.
The seven-line ni- e-hour effort, was
ton much for him.
But it was not all lo3t. He never ad--vispd
an editor again.
ISeither did he compose for a paper
again.
It was hard work for him to write,
and he saw he was not cut out for an
editor Chicago Journal.
