These are often worn dubble barrelled, remindin us of a yoke of
oxen--takin a waggin view of it.
MEN'S HARNISS.
Trowsers are very narrer contracted about the walkin pins.
The only way a feller can get his _calves_ into his bifurkates, is to
fill his butes with _milk_ and coax 'em through.
N.B.--The readers of this report musen't misunderstand me, and undertake
to crawl head first through their garments, for I assure _him_ or _her_,
that I refer to the _calves_ of their perambulaters.
Cotes are worn short waisted, short in the skirts, and short in the
sleeves. I have known them _short_ in the pocket, when the taler sent in
his bill.
Neckties are worn large, what would usually be alowed for a silk dress
is required now for a fashenable scarf.
With the 2 long ends, which hangs danglin down over a feller's buzzum,
it doesent make a bit of difference if he wears a ragged shirt, dirty
shirt, or no shirt at all.
Charity covers a multitood of sins, I'm told, and so does the new stile
of scarfs cover a heep of dirt and old rags.
The new stile of silk hats, worn by a femail heart destroyer, is big
enuff to hitch up dubble, with the shoo, in which the old lady and her
children "hung out.
