Woman in Proverbs. 11
kr ai
W
^ Uncomplimentary Things
Said of Her in Many Lan- c)
guages.
Ifi
Tlio treatment that woman p
kind recjeve9 iu the proverbs of ^
various peoples forms the subject
of an article by L. P. Flobert
in the Paris Qaulois. On
the whole, the array is far from
complimentary. R
Among the Spanish maxims
one of the gentlest is "Wome i
and mules obey better when ca
ressed than coerced " Another
is "The man wins mu?h who
loses his wife." Here are a few M
V
more:
8(
Man is tow; woman is fire and
the devil blows the bellows.
y .> C<
The tears of women are worth
much, though they cost little. p
The fox is cunning, but the
w
woman who loves knows far more
than he. ^
The proverbs of the Arabs g
place a very low value on wo n(
men. Here are some samples :
The beauty of man is in his
spirit; the spirit of woman is in c
her beauty.
Always consult your wife,
but do as you please. ^
When you want to get square ,t
with a man, give him a hand- ^
some wife; when you want revenge
on a woman, give her a
handsome husband.
The Hindoos are not much
more respectful than the Arabs.
They say: ^
The coquette is like your shad 111
ow; chase her and she flees from
you, flee from her and she chases ^
you.
Do you want to test the fine- ?'
ness of gold? Use acid. The "
strength of an ox? Beat it. The ,f
nature ot a man? Let him talk.
The thoughts of a woman? *
There's 110 way.
Next, cfomes the cynical China.- A
man with a cutting maxim:
The tongue of a woman is a
jr ' dagger and she never lets it,
grow rusty. The spirit of a woman
is of quicksilver and her heart
is of wax.
The Persian says: 111
When you go to war, say a
prayer; when yon go sea, say two ai
prayers; when you get married, ti,
pray all the lime.
Tp a question, "What is a
woman?" the Turk answers, "a |u
prisoner;" the Albanian, "a a,
slave;' tlie Servian, "a servant;"
the Bulgarian, "a companion;"
the Greek, "a queen."
The gallant French are among
the most brutal in their folk saying
about women. "Where there ^
are dogs," they say, "there are
fleas ; where there is bread,
there are mice ; where there's a
woman, there's the devil." An
other current saying is, "Women
and fools never forgive." Also:
A woman laughs when she h
can and weeps when she wills.
What the devil can't do, wo- ai
man accomplishes. 11
The man who beats his wife is
like a man who beats a bag of w
flour. All that's good flies away; ^
what's left is not worth having.
Man can rely on the fidelity of d:
his dog to the last breath ; of a
woman to the next temptation. fr
> He who believes his wife de- w
ceiyea himself. He who doubts '
her is deceived all the same. tr
Man has too good days in his P
