The Superior Sex.

A little boy and girl playing in the yard. The girl finds an apple under a tree, and, with an exclamation of delight, begins to bite it. “Hold on,” said the boy. “Throw it away. , The colwy is cornin’, an’ if you eat that apple you will be took sick an’ you can’t talk, an’ the doctor will come

an* give you some bad med’eine an’ then you will die." The little girl throws the apple down, and the boy, snatching it up, begins to eat it. “Don’t," the girl cries. "Won’t it kill 00, too?” “No,” says the boy, munching the fruit; “it won’t kill boys. It’s only after little girls. Boys don’t have colwy." That youngster will be a great politician.—Ar leans aw Traveler.
