Ny Intimate Friends.


patent for doing US all the harm in his
power.
My intimate friend belongs to the same
club as myself, and manages to oct himself
invited to share my dinner three times
week, to say the least, on which occasions.
he shows his friendship by telling me
champagne is Indispensable TO his diges
ton.
My intimate friend gives me bad din
ncr whenever he cntcrtains me at his lodg-
ings, because as he says, there needs be no
ceremony between friends.
My intimate friend borrows money of nc
alone, because, as lie says, he would not
hurt my feelings by applying to any one
else, and forgcts the golden maxim, "Short
accounts make long friendship"
My intimate friend is always ready to
be my second in duel and is so tenacious
of my honor that he will never hear of a
compromise, though older and better men
than himself have profcssed themselves
satisfied.
My intimate friend rides my horse, in
stead of keeping one, because Orestcs and
Pylndcs David and Jonathan, Damon and
Pythlas, were not better friends than VIC
are, consequently such trlfcs ought not to
come between us.
My intimate friend would think mc very
li-naturcd did not present him in ali tho
different circles that frequent, although
being better favored than am; the consc-
quencc is that he dluccs with all the hand
soonest girls and am employed to take the
dowagers down to tea.

his halter, his shoemaker all of which
tunctionaries supply him gratis for tho

secrets of my heart, and confidcd to him
was in love with charming girl, of whom
gave very lover-like description. He
insisted on being introduced to the family,
as he would be delighted to forward nv
suitby every means in his power.
My intimate friend soon made himself at
home in the house. played chess with jose
phino while was talking to her mother;
because he said | had better not pay my at
tcntions too openly until was sure of her
parents sanction.
