Old English Furniture.

That fine old furniture Is yet found
in Britain In many unexpected places
is said to be largely due to the stir
ring up Of the country that was given
BY the great exhibition at London oil
1851. This was soon after the devel-
opment Of the railway system In Eng
land, and there flocked to London, a
large number Of squlres and their
wives, A new world had opened to
the country danes. The new things
had wonderful fascination for them.
On returning home they got rid Oh
much Of their old furniture ana
bought new. Much Of the old furni-
ture found its way to secondhand
shops, and was sold to poor folk, who
could not afford to buy new. This ac'
counts for the finding today Of much
good old furniture In small houses IN
provincial towns and among country
people.--Indianapolls News.
