Democratic Sentinel, Volume 13, Number 10, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 March 1889 — Ungainly Man. [ARTICLE]

Ungainly Man.

Man is an ungainly creature at the best. His head is an irregular spheroid; his eyes are not alike or of equal efficiency; his whiskers won’t grow uniformly. One shoulder is higher than the other, one hand or foot larger than the other—and this on opposite sides—his hips (if he has any) are unequal in shape. The calves of his legs are not twins in anything but age, and without his tailor, hatter, and bootmaker he is a very sorry-looking animal. As fpr women—well, this article is not written to discuss their physical crookedness. If it was it would not be half the length that it is.— San Francisco Chronicle. A charity bawl; —800-hoo!
