Thought She’d Like Them.
' "I called this afternoon on the -family that’s moved into the house across the street,” said Mrs. Fuller to her husband, the other morning. “Did, eh? How did you like them? Think they’ll be agreeable neighbors?" “Oh. I think we shall like them very much. They seem very pleasant, and—oh. those curtains at the parlQi windows are real lace. I examined them while waiting for Mrs. B to come down. And the carpets are real Wilton velvet, and I think the rug in the hall is genuine Persian; and they’ve some beautiful chairs in the parlor and lovely pioturcs and some pieces of bric-a-brac that they couldn’t have if they weren't pretty well off. 1 got a chance to peep into the dining* room, and everything there is real antique oak. with solid jsilver on the sideboard. I think we’ll like them very much indeed!’’—Drake’s Magazine.
