WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.

Slio can do more in a minute than a man can do in an hour, and do it better. Six of them can talk at once and get, along first-rate, and no two men can,do that. She can sharpen a lead-pencil if you give her plenty of time and plenty of pencils. She can safely slick 50 pins in her dress while a man is getting one under bis thumb-nail. She can appreciate a kiss from her husband 75 years after the marriage ceremony is performed. She can come to a conclusion without the slightest trouble of reasoning on it, and no sane man can do that. She can dance all night in a pair of shoes two sizes too .small for her, and enjoy every minute of the time. She can walk half the night with a squalling baby in her arms without once expressing the desire of murdering the infant. She is as eool as a eneumher 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 hales, while two men would be panelling each other's heads before they had exchanged 10 words. She can —but what’s the use"? A woman can do anything or everything,'and do it well.
