Wimmen Folks.

Hast ever reflected on womankind's ways? Heaven bless 'em! Or have you devoted the most of your days To strenuous efforts the ahekeHs to raise Just to dress 'em? Didst ever try fathom the mind of a maad'P I've a notion One might as well ask if you've ever essayed' To explore earth's depths, with a plummet and spade, Or the oceiaep Didtet ever attempt to debate with a girl? Don't do it. You'll emerge from the fiay with yonr brain, in a whirl And, unless you're a cynical chump or a churl, You'll rue it! Still, odd as they axe, they've an infinite grace About 'em ; There's a wonderfuil charm in a, fair woman's face And' this planet would be a lugnbirltoins place Without 'em! Charles True Weeks, in the "Munsey."

The trapper in the lonely ranges grim ; The miner gasping in the drivings dim ; _ The horseman winding cattle o'er the plain ; The farmer, husbanding his golden grain ; The pressman scorning time at dead of night, The higb, the low, and the cosmopolite ; The shiv'ring beggar and the epicure — New Zealanders all— use Woods' Great Peppermint Cure.
