The woman "had looked forward to this outing ns a much needed change; when she finally gets to bed she is to tired to sleep.

Her holliday had been spent under a wagon on a dirty vacant lot, the shade of the trees would have been pleasanter. "This," writes a woman from Carboildale, Kansas, 'is the condition of the average towu. There are numerous places where men are welcomed-where they can spend an hour without a thought of being in the way.
