Going Too Far.

Mrs. Gallup is an estimable lady whose hobby is house decoration. One day last spring Mrs. Gallup was careless enough to drink a, glass of red ink, believing it to be claret. She was naturally alarmed when She dlscdvered her mistake, but no harm came to her. The doctor who was summoned, upon hearing what had happened, dryly remarked to her: "Mrs. Gallup, there is such a thing, you know, as pushing this rage for decorated interiors too far.” Some spinsters are so timid that they would jump at a. proposal.
