False Modesty. ■ tVe will not allow that any man exists ■fho admires genuine modesty more than E e do. And if any one can be found Kbo more utterly despises mock-modesty Bl.an us, j ust tl ’ ot out sve pay p uarter for the sight. We mean that ■]ass who always call the legofatablo its limb, who wish to put panteleites on the Standards of a piano, Arc. Ac. We knew R lady who once said in public that she Lver allowed her husband a kiss, she didn’t think that it was modest. It was jut a very short time afterwards that ihe was caught kissing a gentleman behind the door, and that gentleman was iot her husband! There are some people who would threaten to stop the paper if we were to insert the word pettiskirt in an ari ia our paper, though they wear the article and. hang it out to public gaze on > every washing day—who feel dreadfully I ■if we speak of hoops and crinolines, yet j wear them all the while. If that class; possesses more real modesty than we do, I we'll cave in and go to sawing wood for a living. — Union News.
