Happy Adam and Eve ,

0 • When you come to think o? i P coolly and calmly after the lapse of a ■ these years Adam and Eye were pr« tt ® foztuuate people.' 'Adam never ha< „ to run dead heats with the 'house dog 9 He didn't even have to sit in the par a lour and talk politics 1 with- , Eve 1 a father. When they quarreled &n* Eve climbed a tree, Adam didn't hay* 1 to write long letters and spend houri f of anxiety and postage stamps t« ' make it up. All he had to do was tt } sit down uiider the tree and wait til I Eve's temper recovered its noima 5 sweetness. He never patronised con 1 f ectionery btoreß ; He merely went t< > the nearest fruit tree, plucked a nice > ripe pine apple, and presented it witt 1 his compliments. Theirs wa» a beau'i I ful dream of wedded life. When Eve wanted a new dress Adam went to the ■' nearest fig tree and got it. And Eve ' never felt called upon to mend a bursj '>'. button, or take all the blame because i he stumbled over the rocking chair. It was a monopoly of unadulterated comfort, and if Eye had only had enough feminine sagacity to lift up her fig-leaf ekirts and scream and run when she saw the snake, we would not be having all this trouble now.— ■ Washington Post.
