REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.
From the New York Press. The man who fools himself never fools anybody else. Sow wild oats on the most barren soil and they will grow there as readily as anywhere else. Women get so much happiness out of love affairs because they have such wonderful imaginations. It always spoils a woman's enjoyment of her swell dinner if her husband insists on calling the dishes by their English names. Brain power and refinement of intellect move in inverse ratio. After you have learned to unlearn you are in a fair way of learning to learn. It is hard for a fat woman to think that her thinner sister is not so out of pure malice. A woman always feels that the way to improve her husband's health is to make some change in the weight of his underwear. It is only in books that a man loves a woman so much he would be willing to let some other man have her if it would make her happier.
