Young Husband:_ "I see that sugar has gone down two points."
_Young Wife:_ "Has it? I'll get a couple of pounds to-day, then."

_Best Man_ (_seeing couple off on honeymoon_): "Here you are--just a few
magazines to help pass away the time."

_Hostess_ (_to small guest, who is casting lingering glances at the
cakes_): "I don't think you can eat any more of those cakes, can you,
John?"
_John:_ "No, I don't think I can. But may I stroke them?"

_Mr. Househunter:_ "I don't care for those flats we looked at to-day.
The rooms are too narrow, and the ceilings are too low."
_Mrs. Househunter:_ "But they are cheap, dear; and you and I are neither
very wide nor very high."
