LITTLE GRACE GOES SHOPPING.

Demure little Grace,
with sweet, dimpled face. f-r
brushed her bonny brown hair till 1t shone;
Put on her best bonnet
with fine feathers on 1T,
And went to the city alone.
Never, never before, r
Had she been to a store, #A
with no one to help her to buy;
And OBJ, it was funny
To spend all her money
For whatever she happened to spy!
But, alas for her fun!
1t had hardly begun,
tt seemed to the dear little spender, f
When the money gave out, f lNtl
With 10 mamma about,
A dime or quarter to lend her.
And oh, what picklel
Not even a nickel
For carfare had this little maiden,
So the shopman expressed her
To A Chester,
with bundles and budgets well laden.

car. Nobody thought he was hero but
Tony and his two small friends; and

There arc only three kinds of athletic
exercises in which the Japanese consent to
take part One is n kind of polo, now
known to very fow people. 1t is game
which requires thorough knowledge Of
horsemanship, steady ego and constant
practice. This lno sport is still kept I'D
among the members of tho oldor families.
Then thcro is kenjutsu, or fencing, an
athletic exercise of highest value, the
whole art being entirely unlike tho sword
exercises of other countries. 1t brings in
to play nearly every muscle of tho body.
The third is the jujutsu. 1t is n
kind of wrestling which teaches not only
how to throw, disable or MAIN an antag-
onist, but which also and in particular
teaches how to be thrown without injury,
or how seemingly to yield to superior
strength and finally to win, or at least to
hold ones own by dint of admirable ad-
dress, muscular supplcness and undaunted
courage
