NEW PUZZLE IN FAVOR OF WOMEN
Happy a mail may pass /lis life,
V/hiisr fn-e’d from matrimonial
chains,
lChen he is govern'd by a "wife,
He’s sure to sutler for his paihs.
HTiat tongue is able to declare,
The failings which in women dwell ?
W worth that fall to women's share,
Can scarce be call’d pcrCeiptible*
In all the female race appear,
Hypocrisy, deceit and pride ;
Truth darling of a heart sincere,
In women never can reside.
They're always studying to employ,
Tlvir time in vanity and prate ;
Their leasure hours in social joy,
To spend, is what all women hate.
Destruction take the men, I say,
Who make of women their delight;
Those who contempt to women pay,
Keen prudence always intheir sight.

A D aughter of Mr. Daniel Strohec
ker y near Orwigsburg, Berks county,
Pennsylvania, about three years of
age, had been observed, for a num
ber of days to go a considerable dis
tance from the house with a piece of
bread which sHe obtained from her
mother ; the circumstance attracted
the attention of the mother, who de
sired Mr. S. to follow the child and
observe what she did with it. On
coming to the child he found her en
gaged in feeding several SNAKEft,
called yellow heads or bastard rattle
snakes. He immediately took it a-
way and proceeded to tbe house for
1 is gun and killed 2 of them at one
shot and another a few days after.
The child called these reptiles, in
the manner of calling chickens, and
when its father observed, if it con
tinued the practice they would bite
her—the child replied—“ no, father,
“ they wont't bite ; they only eat the
“■bread I give them."—Demo. Press.
