MRS. MAMMON.

[One of the latest journalistic attractions is said to be "finance

made easy"--for ladies!]

What? Finance made easy for ladies?--

If _that_'s the last conquest of Mammon,

"Sweet home" may henceforth be a Hades,

Domestic enjoyment mere gammon.

To babies, and bonnets, and kisses

'Tis sacred; and O 'twere a pity,

To find our fair matrons and misses

Devoted to "Funds" and "the City."

Let home be all innocent honey;

With (she) Bulls and Bears do not rend it.

All women should know about money

Is what they know now--how to spend it!
