While he was wondering if people lived in the star he fell asleep; yet waked later to hear the busy machine. “Miss Gordon here, made me a harnsome lace yoke fer an underwaist, an’ give it to me fer my birthday,” volunteered Mrs. Wopp. Warwick Bro’s & Rutter, Limited, Printers and Bookbinders, Toronto, Canada..
