that her sex, no matter bow young, can
get ahead of the boys every time: “Boys
are men that have not got os big os their
papas, and giiL are young women that
will be young ies by and by. Man
was made bef, , . woman. When God
looked at Adau: iio said to bimself,
“Well I guess 1 can do better if I try
again,” and then he made Eve. God
liked Eve so much better than Adam
that there has been more women than
men every since. Boys ara a trouble.
They are wearing on eyerything but
soap. If I had my way half the boys
iu the world would be little girls, and
the rest wonld be dolls. My papa is
so nice that l guess he must have been
a girl when be was a bay.”
