Useful and admirable organ. Whou
expanded, tho lap will admirably
bold fifteen quarts of chestnuts'
peaches, apples, or other desirable
fruit, and Ihuro have been women
whose laps would bold the entire
supply of hairpins required for their
back hair, though, of course, laps uf
those enormous dimensions are some
what rare. It is, however, at picnics
and tea parties that tho splendid
capabilities of the female lap arc
specially displayoJ. ll is an issy
matter for a laly, while engaged on
a picuic, to hold a plate of s did, au-
other uf pickled oysters, a third of

lip at one an l tlio sane tune, ul
