Show TIRED OF' THE "OLD STUFF" olyandrian Queen Welcomed Imported Import-ed Novel for the Reason That It Struck New Note. The queen of the rolynndrian isles reclined lazily upon lier tlirone of mas-culine mas-culine skill's. Her seven husbands had all gone a-huuting. and time lay heavily upon her hands. "Bring me a book !" she. commanded, and seven virgins vir-gins ran off to do her bidding. The queen thumbed the pages of the seven native novels. "Hah !" she ejaculated after a time. "The sums old stuff. Eight men pursuing pur-suing one woman. I'm tired of lids eternal polygon business. Fetch me one of those racy, risque, imported novels where one man and one woman wom-an brave the world and his wives and dare to love each other despite our polyandrian conventionality. They're a little bit immoral, perhaps, but what a relief from the banality of our everyday ev-eryday existence." Philadelphia Ledger. |
