The old style of chewing one end of the pillow, and holding it the way a
retriever dog holds a duck, till the pillow case is on, and then
spanking the pillow a couple of times on each side, is the best, and it
gives the woman's jaws about the only rest they get during the day.
If any invention drives this old custom away from us, and we no more see
the matrons of our land with their hair full of feathers and their mouths
full of striped bed-ticking, we shall feel that one of the dearest of our
institutions has been ruthlessly torn from us, and the fabric of our
national supremacy has received a sad blow, and that our liberties are in
danger.
HUNTING DOGS.
They are making everything out of rubber now. A man has invented a hunting
dog that can be carried in the pocket. When you get in the field, all you
have to do is to blow the dog up, and start it to going. This will be a
great saving, as hunters will not have to pay baggage men a dollar for
tying their dogs to a trunk, when they go off hunting.
ENTERPRISING CHICAGO!
Chicago is to have a hotel built exclusively for men. Under no
circumstances will a woman be admitted into it. There are so many men who
go to Chicago, who are liable to wink at women at the table of the hotel,
before they know their own heart, to lead a different life, that this new
hotel, without temptation, has been decided upon.
