A Woman's Disposition.
I think I have several times alluded to the several curiou3 kind of thing a woman is. I came across a French play which illustrates one phase of the female nature most amusingly. A young man runs away to escape a woman he has been flirting with. He is making love to a fresh flame, when the deserted one hunts him up. After a few bitter reproaches she sayß : " Henry, darling, I love you. You know it I have never hidden it from you. Perhaps you have not returned it. But mine is no selfish love. Tell me that you love another and I will say no more. Tell me frankly you do not love me aud I will leave you without a murmur." " Well," says the youth frankly, " I do not love you." Then she proceeds immediately to tear all his hair out and leaves him on the floor a battered wreck. —San hranchco Chronicle.
