The Dining Room
"the only place where men are
not
bored during the first hour"
"How sad it is to sit and pine,
The long half-hour before we dine!
Upon our watches oft to look,
Then wonder at the clock and cook
And strive to laugh in spite of
Fate!
But laughter forced soon quits the room,
And leaves it in it's former gloom."
From Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household
Management
Mr. and Mrs. Johnstone present their compliments to Mr.
and Mrs. Smithers, and request the honor of their
company to dinner on Wednesday, the 6th of December
next.
