“ I AM A WOMAN.”
I am a w^man—therefore I may not
Call to him, cry to him,
Fly to him,
I’ray him delay not!
Ami when he cornea to me, I nuiat ait quiet:
Still as a atone i?,
Harder and colder.
1 f my heart riot—
< rtibh aud defy it 1
Should I grow bolder—
Say one dear thing to him,
All my life fling to him,
Cling to him—
What to atone is
Enough for my sinning !
This were the cost to me,
This were my winning—
That lie were loat to me !
Not as a lover at last if he part from me,
Tearing my heart from me—
Hurt beyond cure
Calm and demuro ,
Then my behavior:
Showing no sign to him
By look of mine to him,
What ho has been to me.
Pity me—lean to me—
Christ—O my Savior !

The Delaware Indians live in framed
houses, wear cut away coats and stand up
collars, fail in business and compromise
at fifty cents on the dollar, an,d are quite
civilized.
The editor of a western paper writes:
♦‘My wife and I have separated. As we
both wanted to be boss, and as she was
about to beat me, I left her. She'says she
will ‘nail’ me yet. I believe her.”
The sharpest so far this month is the
Tr\v girl who makes her unsuspecting father
the daily beaim,of sweet missives to a
f Icrk in Ins office, who has been forbidden
to visit his employer's bouse. She pins
the letter in the old man's cloak, and when
lie reaches the office and throws cfl* the
garment the clerk gets it and responds by
the same carrier.
A Terra Haute boy of tender years and
heart has drowned seventeen kittens, tied
pans to the tails of nine dogs, brushed his
father’s hat against the grain, aud blown
uy the pet canary with a fire cracker, in
the last month, and still hi3 mother intends
him for the pulpit.
