When the Small Boy TaIka.

One day recently a coterie of young
women in West Philadelphia complet-
ed plans for a moonlight excursion on
the river. and when the evening of
the trip arrived it was noticed that
one of the most charming members
of the party wore a shawl about her
shoulders One of her companions
wondered at this and to her query as
to whether the wearer was afraid of
taking cold received a negative reply.
Another suggested that possibly she
had malaria. This was also emphat-
ically denied. At this juncture the ir-
repressible small brother of the shawl
wearing young woman volunteered to
explain matters. and despite his sis
ters vehement command to keep ST.
lent, said: 1.-THE reason sis wears that
shawl is so that when she is on the
boat Bob can put his arm under it
and hug her, and she thinks nobody
can see through the game"
