GETTING A CLOSEUP
A young married couple hud just
moved into the house next door. I
suw a chair in their library which
looked like a duplicate of one of
mine.
I thought I would tike a better
look, so I raised our window ami
leaning over I was surely getting a
good view of that chair, when-®
masculine voice said: “Well, Nell,
we have no kick. We sure have darn
friendly neighbors.”
I withdrew, but not before bis
wife jerked down the shade. He
bad been watching me from the bed-
room window. J guess we never
will be neighbors now.—Exchange.
