I do admire oak so much.” “Hut. the rest of the furniture is walnut,” 1 objected. “Walnut Is altoget her oat of style, especially for dining-rooms,” she re plied with a disdainful glance at t lie chair* which we Imd once found very good to look at; "and, after all, the sideboard is by so much the most expensive piece of furniture In u din ing-room, thut it doesn't cost milch more to get ii whole set than just that one piece. And even ii walnut sideboard new, would not look wel with these clmirs and this table,” I said nothing, and the tacit sur render W'iin accepted by lay wife. Thenceforth it was understood that if Aunt .lane should bequeath us thill silver, wo were to purrhuso a new set of dining-room furnit lire. The next evening, qs we were aga in ut dinner, my wife remarked: “I have been looking ntcarpets to day, and saw one flint just suits me —rich and subdued, you know, but not dingy.” “t’ur|>cts?” i repented, in some sur prise; “I didn't know that there was t kill* I I Ills hHHMIll “Why, ktupid,” rejoined m.v wile, petulantly (mid the emphasis wan nil upon the put mime), “did wo not ugree that the dining-room must !»<• refurnished?

I must admit t hat she Inal Issome oblivions of the fuel, that all theneimprovementsdepended upon a legacy, which could only lie possessed after the death of her ven erable relative. A day or so after she had decided that the house wasto Is- thoroughly renovated my wife said to me: “I have been examining the parlor carpets, and I find that by using the best parts of both, and huyiugu wide border, I can get quite a new carpet, for our ited-room—absolutely un worn." “Indeed!" I remarked with pleased surprise; there was one thing that she would not want, any how. “Yes, and the carpet that Is now on it has enough good to cover the children’s room if I put the worn purl under tlie bed, <>r inuy-be I'd better put that on the spare room," she ended. reflectively, “and give that one t o t he children.
