The sound of the last farewell had died
upon the morning air and little Harold's two
year-old voice was heard shouting, don
fordet'' my high chair, mamma, and my
chif- chimed in sweet eighteen Bess, when
the locomotive bell rang and away steamed
the great iron horse, with its precious load OF
humanity, from the little town Of
in Western Maryland, to Baltimore, its des-
tination. Mrs. Radmore, the mother of Har-
old and Bess. was seated alone, but at the
next station another lady got aboard and took
the seat beside her. Good morning, Mrs.
Radmore. Why, Mrs. Sinclair, good morn
ing. I'm so glad to see you. What brings
YOU out so early this morning? Oh, I'm
going to Baltimore to do some shopping.
And so am l. I've got TO get couple OF
those red lawn settees that fold up. They re
only SIPS apiece, and so attractive. Well,
Mrs Radmore, | can't ssy that | fancy shop
ping so much in the household line, as | have
great deal of bother to get what | want.
Now the last furniture which | got | purchased
from Takeall & Co., and don't you know that
they charged me rs cents to take my goods
to the station. Indeed Why never heard
of such thing. Well, now, | tell you what
you do-you come with me to where | deal
and I'll guarantee that you'll be treated right
in price and every other respect Where
that? Why Straus. es, but want carpets,
mattings and rugs. Well, they handle every
thing in that line. Let me see; / believe |
have their card. Yes, here it is. See? 1t
reads-Carpets, Mattings, Rugs, &c, and
Furniture of all kinds for home, halls, hotels
and office. | never deal anywhere else; and
it's so handy. You see, get right off the
train and take the car which passes the station
and it puts me within one square of the stores;
or, if go in on the electric car it makes con-
nection with another that runs by the DOORS
| received their spring announcement, which
states that they have an excellent stock to
show this season, among which are new and
pretty Baby Carriages, Refrigerators, Parlor,
Chamber and Diningroom Suits, &c, and
useful articles for presents, such as Chairs,
Rockers, Couches, Chiffoniers, Writing Desks,
Bookcases, Fancy Tables, China Cases, Pic
lures, Lamps, and I've forgotten what else.
Well, Mrs. Radmore, thank you very much
That reminds me that must get present
for George and Clara, as they're TO be mar
ried next month, you know, and shall GER
tainly go with you. And they both went, and
made their homes happier by the visit,
