It is fortunate for nieu that women
have no sense of humor.
Men are the spice of life but
steady diet of spice is undesirable.
One unfortunate difference between
men and women has been brought to
light by the cultivation of women's
brains. A man of brains can fall in
love with his mental Inferior and stay
so; a woman can't.
Money you earn vourse'f may com?
hard but it's awfully nice not to have
to ask anybody for it at the end cf
the week.
If women would -swear a little more
tliey wouldn't cry so much.
Since the beginning of time wo-
man's affections have been kept in a
hothouse to make them just as
large and tender as possible; her

shirked his work on to others and
treated his family atrociously.' Then
I spoke In enthusiastic terms of Mrs.
Stnnning's figure and she assured me
that it was all artificial. I learned
that the manly looking little Blue-
blood boy was capable of mean tricks

wife took upon herself only those
duties which she had before marriage
and insisted on having servants to do
the rest of the work. He would rise
up in his w rath if his wife said 'Here'
take care of the baby this evening. I've
been working bard all day and now
mean to go out and enjoy myself.' He
would say his wile was extremely sel-
fish if she took no interest in him
aside from his earning money to feed
and clothe her. And still there are
few husbands who manifest much In-
terest in their wives except to de-
mand that the bouse be kept in decent
order and "that the cooking he of the
best.
"If it 4s hard for a man to adjust
himself to the new order of things;
if ft Is hard fur him to remember
that there is some one to think of be-
sides himself; if it is difficult for him
to consider that another's pleasure is
to be considered before his It is also
diflicult for a woman to remember that
she has responsibilities before un-
dreamed of. It is exasperating for
her to know- that she must sit down
and mend whin she would like to

'The Cruel Plant."
Our picture illustrates a etrits
Canadian climber upon which there
i as been bestowed the name of the
"Cruel riant" because of the way in
which It treats certain butterflies-. It
is an autumnal bltjouier and the in-
sects attracted by its perfume hover
round and push their probosces Into
it 3 corolla on honey-slppins intent
But the act is fatal for the poor flies
get gripped tightly by a pair of te-
markahle vegetable pincers In the
heart ot the flower and held until
death terminates the struggle.
Difficult Writing.
It is easy to write with the hand
and after considerable practice one
can learn to write a few letters or
numbers with the foot. Try how-
ever to write two or three letters with
the foot and litind slmu'taneously and
you wiil find it extremely diflicult
Yet if you practice long enough you
can in time learn to do it. Here is a
feat which according to those who
have tried it is practically impos-
sible though a few admit Cat it may
(;e accompli.-hed by perso'tia of extra-
ordinary patience. It also consists in
writing a few letters or numbers with
the hand and foot but in this case the
letters are to be written in the normal
direction by the hand and in the' op-
posite direction or backward -by the
Pint and it is procKoH' herein tiiat
tins great liitihuity lies. Those who
desire to try this esperlment need not
use either pen or pencil. Jut let
them draw bitters of a hrc size on
two sheets of paper and then see if
they can move hand aitd foot over the.
lines siinultaneouily but iu opposite
directions.
