AN IMPERFECT INVENTORY.
Mother : ‘ And so your friend Clara is soon to be married ?’ Daughter (just returned from long absence) : * Yes ; doesn’t it seem strange ? I hadn’t heard a word about it until I called to see her this morning. She showed me her trousseau. It’s perfectly lovely, just from Paris, and she has the handsomest ring I ever saw, and she showed me the house she is to live in, and the furniture she has selected, and the horses and carriages she is to have. She showed me everything except the man she is going to marry. I guess she forgot about him.’
