Lingo of the Lingerie

She was a fair-haired, fluffy little thing, who had taken a position as

saleswoman in a department store. A few days later she met a boy friend

and both stopped to have a little chat.

“How do you like your job?” inquired the boy friend.

“Oh, I like it very much,” said the fluffy one. “Only, they shift me

about too much. At twelve o’clock I’m in hats, at three I’m in dresses,

at four I’m in lingerie, at six I’m in stockings, and—”

“I’ll look you up tomorrow at eight,” said he.
