W T. were very S'tlduit >et ~ MS
Wickcs boarding house. quite couylylal,
so TO speak, with lots OF Young people,
some pretty girls. and more lively ones,
and. altogether, 1t was quite a fair sub
>ti,ute for comforts of home. There
were no diScordaut clements, none, at
least. that could harass the soul of man,
though / dare say the feminine portion
managed 10 while away the day with the
usual amount OF light skimiShiug among
themselves: bat we were always serene
az dinner time. and decidedly Jolly. Tn
der the circumstances. we naturally rath
er resented the arrival of any new board
cr,. and when Mrs. WickcS announced at
dinner one evening that she had let the
,hirl suite of rooms to some Boston pco-
pie. there was much disgust expressed
down the length of the table.
And I must say" observed our land
lady. "tha; they don't appear to bc very
p,oasaut-qUitc exclusive and stuck-up;
and Nrs. Minot remarked she hoped /
made +, rulc not 20 introduce my board
cr,. for that she always avoided making
acluaiutauces IN that sort Of way; and,
I'm fact. only intended knowing literary
people. If there was literary circle IN
New York at all
Here We all roarcd with laughter, and
the ladies recovering first, began TO cast
auimadycr>ioa, upon the coming woman.
.'She sand that NIr Miuot only con-
,euted 20 board on condition that she and
her sister kept strictly TO themselves,
proceeded Mn. Wickes, with a sarcastic
imitation of the Boston lady's style. Il
told her that We were ali very >ociable
and pleasant here, and really thought
that she would find it very awkward no,
20 know the other hlic, In the house;
bat she only pu; up her Eyeglasses and
stared 40 nae, and said .hc must beg me
90 break my rilc for once, and not intro
ducc any OF their party. They began 10y
wanting a separate table, bat told them
| couldn't arraus, that at present.
''I wish YOU had" exclaimed one lady,
I'm disgust. I'm sure wo don't want any
one 10 ,it here like d wet blanket
I'm going to put them ucN; you. Mr..
