is strong and healthy in womanly way,
motherhood means to her .but little suffer

TOO AwFULLY AWFUL

There is little maiden
Who has an awful time;
She has 20 hurry awtully
To get 10 school at nine.
She has an awful teacher:
Her tasks are awful hard:
Her playmates all are awful rough
When playing in the yard.
She has an awful kitty,
Who often shows her claws;
A dog who jumps upon her dress
With awful muddy paws,
She has baby sister,
With an awful little nose.
With awful cunning dimplets,
And such awful little toes,
She has two little brothers,
And they are awful boys;
With their awful drums and trumpetS
That make an awful noise.
Do come, pray thee, common sense;
Come and this maid defend:
Or else, fear, her awful life
VIII have an awful end.

the general mlserableness OF the city
forces people to unconsclously seek
comfort In q harmless little bout Of
extravaganza, or that the fog drives
customers in here In the hope that
they might run across who would
have otherwise been encountered out
side. But the most feasible explana-
ton seems 10 be the gas and electric
lights.
Remember, that no one ever used
to dine until after [ lights were 1T.
and even yet there :. thousands OF

not take their most substantial meal

gas that nearly all night workmen
who work by electricity enjoy proven
bially good appetites. All Of which,
you will notice, works around to the
same concluslon--that London fog
makes people hungry because Of the
extra lights.
Another proof is the fact that our
extra customers are almost all men
working in Offices, which. on account
OF the fog, have been lighted up all
day, and usually, too, OF course. with
electric lights"
