Among the neater forms for a quiet wedding at home is the following: MR. AND MRS. Request the pleasure of M. -'s company at breakfast, on Wednesday, December 16, at one o'clock. Hamilton Square. Cards of bride and groom must be inclosed for general invitations. Very simple forms are in the best taste.
After a time I got a little more composed, and looked about at the different toilettes that surrounded me. I own I saw nothing much neater than my own; and I was pleased to find it so, as nothing gives one greater confidence in a crowd than the consciousness of being well dressed.
The interior was far neater than I had expected from the appearance of the outside, and was furnished with tables and chairs, and several cupboards and some book-shelves; the walls were ornamented with a few pictures and native weapons, while two spare guns and some pistols were against them. A couple of large Scotch deer hounds of a badger-like colour accompanied their master.
I am an orphan, and it seemed to me as though I had just found my family, I felt so at home with them. "Suddenly, as she had stretched out her foot between her husband's legs, he murmured reproachfully: 'Louise, please don't wear out your old shoes yourself. There is no reason for being neater in Paris than in the country. "I lowered my eyes.
She was presently followed by my guide, after he had silently motioned me to a seat; and their place was supplied by an elderly woman, in a grey stuff gown, with a check apron and toy, obviously a menial, though neater in her dress than is usual in her apparent rank an advantage which was counterbalanced by a very forbidding aspect.
"He could not let A minute pass without a threat." How's that, eh? Waller himself could not have capped the couplet neater. All this time Reuben had been swinging away at his oars, and we had made our way into Langston Bay, down the sheltered waters of which we were rapidly shooting. Sitting in the sheets, I turned over in my mind all that this waif had said.
Steel furniture is neater, handsomer, and more easily kept in order than that made of brass. Use green wood for logs, and mix green and dry wood for the fire; and then the wood-pile will last much longer. Walnut, maple, hickory, and oak wood are best; chestnut or hemlock is bad, because it snaps. Do not buy a load in which there are many crooked sticks.
"Ah, but she would know the difference," she cried. "Lily loves you with all of her heart. And your mother is really trying to be neater, to make a better home for you! She hasn't a pleasant time of it, either your mother. But she doesn't run away. She stays!" There was scorn in the laugh that came, all at once, from Ella's twisted mouth. Her great eyes were somberly sarcastic.
Even the firemen used to observe that the young engineer, always neat, looked still neater on the days when he took out Sankey's train. By and by there was an introduction under the catalpas. After that it was noticed that Georgie began wearing gloves on the engine not kid gloves, but yellow dogskin; and black silk shirts he bought them in Denver.
For, though this arrangement makes a neater and cleaner thing of it for the officers, and looks very nice and superfine on paper; yet it is plainly detrimental to health; and in time of war is attended with still more serious consequences to the whole nation at large.
