A WOMAN'S WAY.

He called her up by telephone,
Begged her to make the trip
To Waikiki IS fair beach with him
And take little dip.
She said "The day is cloudy quite;
! fear 'twould chilly be-
Then would she on the morrow GOT
"Not sure-perhaps-I'n see.
The morrow proved a lovely day,
Most perfect sea and sky.
He called her up but she said "No."
He asked the reason why.
"The sun s too hot this afternoon,
'Twould burn me to a Grips;
Oh! no, I can't go later on
m scheduled for some whist
The third day he knew twas no use
To call up and inquire;
The wind was something terrible,
The waves rolled high and higher.
But his telephone rang wildly,
Just as the clock struck three
"Come right out to the house at
Wen go to Waikiki
Now he wondered and he pondered
Why she should this interest show,
And he did not dare to ask her
But IN sure he d like to know
/ had phoned her "Come out quick,
dear,
Fashion s latest modes you'll see;
There are several girls in bathing
In new suits from gay Paree.'
