After the lecture, a pale, haggard, woe-begone looking man shuffled up to the speaker end said, " Look here, mister, I've heard what you've been saying about woman; all about how nice and sweet she is, why, one wouldimaginethat you believed all women were just blushing full blown roses; I guess you don't know my wife, "Well she hainc no blooming rose, She's a daisy, a reg'lar daisy; why, mister, my wife is a nagger, and there hain't an hoar, when she's awake, but what she's nagging someone. If it ain't mc, it's the children; if it hain't the children, it's the cat.
