Pants are made for men and not for women. Women are made fur men and not for pants. When a man pants for a woman and a woman pants for a man these, my friend, are a pair of pants, but these parity do not last. To make pants last, make the coat first. Pants are like molasses, because they are thinner in hot wheather and thicker in cold weather. A fat man cannot keep up his pants in hot weather with out suspanders, but a dog can. Men sometimes make mistakes in pants, and these are called breeches of promise. There haa been much discussion, nay friends, as to whether pants is singular or plural. In my mind, when a man wears pants it is plural, but when he does not, it i3 singular. Ex.
