Not the Simple Life.

Little Dorothy had acquired a fixed habit of eating Sunday dinner with her two old and beloved friends, the Browns, who lived just across the street. Coming home she found her own' family seated at their table enjoying a substantial but plain dinner. A slight Wave of contempt crossed her face. “Why, what did you have for dinner?” her mother asked. “Baked chicken, rice, hot biscuits, mashed potatoes, candied sweet potatoes, cranberries, plum jelly and other delinquencies,” loftily asserted the little maid. —The Christian Herald.
