n\yhat shall we do about that

Women's Superiority
lt was evidently some married man
who remarked : “A woman is a strange
being, and the more you study her the
more interesting she appears.’" When
a woman’s feet get cold she can draw
them up and sit on them until they be
come warm, and no one is Use wiser.
How she manages tiie movement is a
mystery ; but nevertheless she, accotn
plishes it with a quiet grace. Which dis
counts the greatest sleight of Jiaud per
fortuanco that was ever iuyeilted.—
This bit of information will duaibtless
astonish thousands of men who have
foolishly imagined that they could read
a woman like a liook, but what else can
be expected when conceit and ignorance
stalk tluough the land V The idea that
man is superior to woman in everything,
is too absurd to he entertained even a

The green hill nor tlio rippled bay,
Bid all the world will walk in gray

For you, if not for those you know,
The heart will fill and overilow
With bitter tears that hurt us so,

To memory, darling, and to you,
And never will forget you.
Even lying under grass or snow,
When summer’s winds or winter’s blow
Above tlio heart that loves you so,
I never will forget you.
