The corrplnininxr lady always lakes a fine show of indignation -or so the matter is always reited to me?but I never fail to tugh at the joke. What joke? ycu ask. Why. 'ooden-head, the pretended in- j ignation of the lady. When a was puts on a hobble kirts. doesn't she know that it* rill expose her to the stares of he multitude every time she ikes a step up? Of course she knows it. Then why does she persist in j rearing su<jh a skirt? There is only one answer to hat question. Horatio. Sheconinues to wear 'em because she mnts the public to examine her ' alves occasionally. You think otherwise? Ther ou are stupid. If the dear hings didn't want to show thomelvcs they would wear different ; lothes. If a man stepped on the street j very few minutes nod pulled i is trousers above his ki e? s, ? r?uld he have any oiher ?: jee< i han showing tin- shape ot a j ?g? Assuredly n<*( unl< ss } j ras endeavoring to break irto he asylum for the feebleminded. No, there's no room for argulent on this matter. When a roman dresses so as to necessi^ a. _ r - 4ie irequeni exposure of the I ?gs, she knows exactly what | he is doing. She may pretend 3 be offended when men stare, ut, dear heart, she would be eally and truly offended if men id not stare. But, at that, there isn't much xposed that is worthy a second lance. A well lurned ankle is \ a rare thing. Either the deign is that of a slat, from the nkle-bone to the knee cap, or Ise the ankle is swoolen to llydesdale proportions and looks tove-up. There ought to be a law to rohibit showing deformities and ddities in public anyway? Foun- j iin Inn Tribune. ' Got By With 500 Gallons. | W. T.
