PREFACE.

At breakfast we have no time to spare, for the duties of the day areclamoring for attention; at the noon-day dining hour some of the familyare absent; but at six o'clock in the evening we all come to thetea-table for chit-chat and the recital of adventures. We take ourfriends in with us—the more friends, the merrier. You may imagine thatthe following chapters are things said or conversations indulged in, orpapers read, or paragraphs, made up from that interview. We now open thedoors very wide and invite all to come in and be seated around thetea-table.
