Sermon on Woman.
'Woman, " said the old Codger,
during onfc of his medatajive
spells', "is a perpetual .paradox,
a chronic conundrum without an
answer, an unknown quantity
possessed of unexpected possi
bilities, a parennial prize pack
age of peculiar potentialities, a
conventicle of characteristic con
tradictions and an amaranthine
aggregation of other attributes
which are not alliterative.
"She is man's greatest earth
ly 'blessing, and the cause of
most of his misery. She is his
chief inspiration to the achieve
ment of all that is good, grand
and glorious in this world, and
at the same time a labor-saving
device to 'help him make a fool
of himself. She soothes his tired
nerves with the coo of her gentle
voice, 'but she always has the
last word in every controversy
with him and, incidentally,
about 97 per cent of the preced
ing conversation. She brings
him into the world, and a few
years later talks him to death.
"Most of man's." trouble is
caused by' woman, but so deftly
does she pile the load on him
that whenever his burden of
trouble is lifted he wanders un
easily about hunting for more
otherwise, there would be very
few second wives. ' She will
cheerfully go to the stake for the
truth's, sake, and lie about her

indulgent husband, will cleave
unto death to the man who beats
her regularly. She will break
her heart because a man does
what she don't want him to do,
and love him all the better for
so doing.
"She scorns all advice in the
selection of a husband, but takes
two other women along to help
her pick out a hat. The less ac
tual comfort to be obtained from
a thing, the more enjoyment a
woman gets out of its possession.
At 16. she is a young woman ; at
25, if still unmarried, she is a
girl. She will face the grim
spectre of death without a trem
or, and swoon at the sight of a
mouse. The only -time she-ever
does what you expect her to do is
when you expect her to do what
you don't expect her'to do. The
sole reason why she does aify
thing is simply because she don't
know why she does it. She
jumps,at conclusions .and always
lands on them squarely, for the
simple reason that when the con
clusion skips to one side, think
ing to avoid'her, it gets xactlj
in her way. She is the dearest
thing in all the world and the
most aotfrravatincr. She is as
