The Tale of a Shirt

Comfort, the farmers’ journal, says this: Is there any way for a girl to

tell her sweetheart his shirt-tail is out? The same way she would tell

her brother or cousin or any friend. A sweetheart’s shirt-tail is no more

sacred or worthy of respect than any other shirt-tail. A tail belongs to

a shirt as much as cuffs or a collar and isn’t any more indecent. I’d

tell anyone to tuck his shirt in—just like that.

My girl is so fat she wears inner tubes for garters.
