ABOUT GIRLS.
' Kiss a gurl and di ' iz one ov the (new) proverbs, andthe bashful man iz more likely ter cave under such circumstances than the female. Bright eyed, wavy-haired collections of pink and white are manufactured for caresses and it comes as natural to receive
'em as falling off the roof of a 8 tenement block. A man may be smart an able to get up ' jobs ' what are taller and broader in ,a dishonestly financial vu, than any ov his nabers, but if he enters into an engagement with a flirt, (a word synonymous with gurl,) he's sure ter get licked in the battle, for if he don't ring herfinger she'll probably wring his neck, and if he does he regrets the act. The popular varieties ov the genius gurl are the Good and Bad. Among the former is always classed the ' Mary ' what had a little lam. How she had it (roast or otherwise.) isn't material.
