What Woman Can Do.

She can come to a conclusion without the slightest trouble of reasoning on it, and no sane man cau do that.

Six of them can talk at once and get along first rate, aud no two men can do that. She can safely stick fifty pins in her dress while ho is gutting one under his thumb nail. She is cool as a cucumber in half a dozen tight dresses and skirts, while a man will sweat and fume and growl in one loose shirt. She can talk as sweet, as peaches and cream to the woman she hates, while two men would be punching each othor's heads before they had exchanged ten words. She can say •' No " in such a low voice that it means *' Yes." She can sharpen a lead pencil if you give her plenty of time and plenty of pencil. She can dance all night iv a pair of shoes two sizes too small for her and enjoy every minute of the time.

She can appreciate a kiss from her husband seventy-five years after the marriage is performed. Sho can go to chnrch and afterwards toll you what every woman in tbe congregation had on, and in some rare instances cuu give you some faint idea of what the text was. Sho can walk half the night with a colicky baby in her arms without once expressing the desire of murdering the infant. She can—but what's the use ? A woman can do anything and everything, and do it well. fchc can do more in a minute than a man can do in an hour, aud do it better.

■"-ho can drive a man crazy for twentyfour hours, and then bring him to paradise in two seconds by simply tickling him under the chin; and there does not live that mortal son of Adam's misery who can do it. —New York Sun.
