"A young fellow and his girl went out sleighing yesterday, and the lad
returned with a frozen ear. There is nothing very startling in the simple
fact of a frozen ear, but the idea is that it was the ear next to the girl
that he was foolish enough to let freeze." A girl that will go out
sleigh-riding with a young man and allow his ears to freeze is no
gentleman, and ought to be arrested. Why, here in Milwaukee, on the
coldest days, we have seen a young man out riding with a girl, and his
ears were so hot they would fairly "sis," and there was not a man driving
on the avenue but would have changed places with the young man, and
allowed his ears to cool. Girls cannot sit too close during this weather.
The climate is rigorous.
