What. manage a man? any woman can For ghe knows just how to do it; So yield to her rule (or else you're a fool;) But don't let your neighbors know it. Men think for a while, her sweet loving smile Is expressive of fond devotion; But some of them learn what most no' r dis cern? She's plotting- to spring- some pet notion. it's no use to pout or cast out a "flout" As every man knows, that's married ; You may wring and twist, but she'll ne'er desist Until her purpose is carried. (Jo on happy fool, enjoy your " dunce stool" ! Never fret or fume or get "stubby," ! Don't try to be wise, but see with your eyes And maybe she'll call you "dear hubby." Where ignorance is bliss, they say 'tis amiss And foolish to try to be wise; Take what's to begot, and feast on the thought That there's "freedom" beyond the skies. Clyde. a Card ot Thanks. Mu.
