What contrast is presented between the
stiff uncomfortable manner in which some
houses are furnished and the snug, cosy way
in which others are liked up! In the days OF

chairs would give one a backaChe by merely
looking at them. This is one thing, at least
in which We moderns have improved upon our
foretathers. To see how much we have done,
it Is only necessary to call at the extensive
warerOoms of the Messrs. G. j. HenkelS, Lacy
