this and then looked about her for

"Oh, OH" groaned the two or

each other. But the girl in the

addicted to the long skirt habitat

The average length Of time con-
sumed in days shopping is about
five hours. Her dress skirt must
be held up continuously while in
the street and stores. The weight
Of the ordinary dress skirt as held
by the hand is from two to five
pounds, but taking the minimum
weight Of two pounds, which each
woman carries in her hand contin-
uously during the five hours, she
expends a lifting force Of two pounds
every instant, 120 pounds minute,
7 200 pounds an hour and $4,000
pounds during the five hours. The

BOCCACCIO.

Zone day upon topmost shelf,
/ found precious prize indeed,
Which father used to read, himself
But did not want us boys to read;
A brown old book Of certain age
Gas type and binding seemed to show)
While on the spotted title-pa
Appeared the name 'Boccaccio.'
I'd never heard that name before,
But in due season it became
To him who fondly brooded o'er
Those pages a beloved name!
Adown the centuries | walked
Mid pastoral scenes and royal show;
With seigneurs and their danes ! talked
The Crony Of Boccaccio.
Those courtly knights and sprightly maids,
Who really seemed disposed to shine
In gallantries and escapades,
Anon became great friends OF mine
Yet there was sentiment with fun,
An oftentimes my tears would flow,
AT some quaint tale OF valor done
AS told by my Boccaccio.
In boyish dreams saw again
Bucolic bellies and DANES of court.
The princely youths and monkish men
Arrayed for sacrifice or sport;
Again heard the nightingale
Sing as she sung in those years ago,
In his embowered Italian vale
To my revered Boccaccio.
And still | love that brown old book
found upon the topmost shelf
love it so let none look
Upon the treasure but myself!
And yet have strapping boy
Who U have ever cause to know
Would to its full extent enjoy
The friendship OF Boccaccio!
But boys are oh so difiie rent now
From what they we're when was Que!
| fear my boy would not know how
To take the old raconteurs fun
In your companionship, O friend,
think il wise alone to 60
Plucking the gracious fruits that bend
Where e'er you lead Boccacco.
So rest you there upon the SHELF
Clad in your garb Of faded brown;
Perhaps, sometime, my boy himself
Shall find you out and take you down.
Then may he feel the Joy once more
That thrilled me, filled me years ago
When reverently brooded o'er
The gores Of Boccacco
