Then of course ashes and Clinkers, have a place in this suggested com; parison. Concerning men, women are illogical; to believe all men are knaves is unjust.

But beileve any of them saints is just nonsense. Stupid women hase their uses they give bright ones additional opportunities. They tell me the veason they measure the sea in knots is because they would never get the ocean (tide) if they didn't. The utility of hot knowing is boundless, yet knowledge is scarcely as powerful as skilled ignorance. It seems the only fellows who can raise money easily are those who don't need it badly.

Women may not be skilled at driv ing nails, but at a bargain driving oh boy! There one thing I ve found as pleasant as making a good sale, and that is collecting the money.
