Shnn-Girls' Food.

Shop-girls suffer much from having Ia

also injured by eating too little, and by
the unwise choice of food. An article
in Lippincotfs Magazine, written by A
lady who has studied the shop-girls, ex'
hibits the unfit food they eat, and also
illustrates their repugnancc to domestic
work. The author gives her CONVERSE

would cost much less than your pies and

you could have little water boiler"
