“And when a woman comes to decide who to marry it comes down to the same test," he added. "You mean they sniff men?" I asked. I could not imagine what it would feel like to have a woman sniff me. "Yes, to determine if the fellow's fresh," Uncle Seth said. "I guess I don't smell fresh, which is why I'm a bachelor still." "That's pretty peculiar," I said. "Oh no, I expect it's a fine method," Uncle Seth said, trying to make out Little Nicky's tracks on the trail. "Women don't know why they choose who they choose," he went on. "If they say otherwise it's a lie. A good fresh scent's probably the best thing they got to go on.”
