Oh You Man!
Man drinks whisky and that
clogs the valves he drinks beer
and that clogs the wheels he
downs lemonade gingerale but-
termilk ice tea coffee and what-
not and then wonders why the
boilers do not burn If you
should take an ox and put thru
a like performance he would be
dead in month The simplest
and plainest laws of health are
outraged every day by the aver-
age man Did Adam smoke-:
Did Eve wear a corset? Did
Solomon chew tobacco?
Ruth chew gum? Did the
dren of Israel make for a
v
garden after crossing tne
Sea? Did Rebecca chew
drops chocolate bonbons
ice cream and call for
water? Adam was the first man
and was made perfect from head
to heel — how long would he re
main so after eating pie before
going to bed? Suppose he had
slept in a bedroom 5x7 with the
windows closed down the doors
shut and two dogs under the
bed? Suppose Eve had been laced
up in a corset worn tight shoes
with English heels hobble fig
leaves sat up all hours of the
night eating chicken salad and
welch rarebits and trying to keep
on four pounds of dead people’s
hair! — Wellington Journal
