Couldn’t Stand Familiarity.

Mr. Hacklin went into an unhealthful neighborhood and started a newspaper. Several months afterward he was seen in the vicinity of his old residence. • - “Hello,” said a friend; “back so soon ?” “Yes; I got restless.” - “Didn’t like the neighborhood?” “Not after the people became too familiar. I had not been there long until it became evident that I would not like the place. I did not mind them shooting at me every time I went out of the office, and I even tolerated their blazing away at me whenever I’d stick my head out of the window; but when they fell into the habit of climbing on the house-top and shooting down the chimney, why I became disgusted at such familiarity.— Arkansaw Traveler.
