Miss Dobb looked upon the wall, and saw, in red letters, as if she had gone into business, opened a store, and put out a sign, "MISS DOBB, LIES, SCANDAL, GOSSIP, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL."

"Sure," said that strange creature, her keen eyes glancing about my room; "you don't deserve half I've done for you not letting me know beforehand ." "Or me!" Kitty broke in.

"Now I wouldn't have thought it of Miss Kent, she is such a giddy girl, nor of Mr. Chrome, he is so busy with his own affairs.
Indigo mixed with the Spanish brown makes a delicate purple, or alone with the mixture, a pale blue. Lamp-black, in moderate quantity, makes a slate color, suitable for the outside of buildings. Lamp-black and Spanish brown together, produce a reddish stone color, yellow ochre, a yellow wash, but chrome goes further and makes a brighter color.
