Max left the coffee-pot with some reluctance, crossed the room, and with the seriousness known only to the enthusiastic amateur in house-furnishing, removed the nail from Blake's mouth. "It is a shame! You will spoil your nice teeth." "What is a tooth or two in such a cause! Have you a handkerchief?" "Yes." "Then, for the love of God, wipe my forehead for me!"

Patented coffeepots on this principle can be purchased at most house-furnishing stores. Make more coffee than usual at breakfast time and stronger. When cold put on ice.

The wedding being fixed for the autumn, preparations for Marfinka's house-furnishing and trousseau were being gradually pushed forward.

House-furnishing stores furnish elaborate and confusing ones. The present list is simply what is needed for the most efficient work.
