Jennie's Calendar, 1917

    Aunt Samantha was visiting at a house
in Buffalo. She was an old maid and very
devout, always concluding her prayers
with the gloria.    "Why does she say
such funny things in her prayers?"
asked the little daughter of the house.
"Why, what does she say?" replied the
fond mamma.    "I don't remember
all she says, but she always ends
with "World without men, ah, me!"
