Chiffer-robc Blues. The temperature dropped from j 77 to 42 one day last week and that I turned on my thinking spigot aiidj jl began to examine my winter! j things that X always (try) to keep; [in my own private chiffer-robc. * As last year was not a very good ( year for wholesale grocers, 1 recall-' ed that I had gone rather light on j purchasing heavy underwear and soforth, but X felt that anything[ was good enough to wear during a s i G-cent cotton winter.
