Of all ,; anti argumenta we ever heard we prefer that advanced the other day in the l.ouisiana House by J < iilberl Dupre. "I have not heard a word you women havi said," ia' obaerved, "bul I am op 1 to your remarka." Later, on June 7. in the courae of ihe ate, he said: "If my wife should go off eampaign ing for two week* and leave me a! home with the houaemaid, I should think that an unfortunate circumatance."

Upon whieh our hoateaa, with a win ning amile and in the moet silvery ae eents imaginable, said: "Oh, I'm so glad to hear you say that again, Senator, for I told my hushand you made use of oxactly the same ex presaion to us yeaterday, and ho said you would not have talkod such non sense to anybody but a woman."
