Two dollars for castors, six for a new head-board, and ten for tester and curtains.

Thirty-four dollars in all; when a very handsome French bedstead, of good workmanship, can be bought for thirty dollars." I must own that I was taken somewhat aback by this array of figures "that don't lie." "And for twenty dollars we could have bought a neat, well made dressing-bureau, at Moore and Campion's, that would have lasted for twice as many years, and always looked in credit." "But ours, you know, only cost ten," said I.
"The bureau, such as it is, cost ten, and the glass two.

Add five that we have already paid for repairs, and the four that our maple bedstead has cost above the price of a handsome French, one, and we will have the sum of twenty-one dollars,--enough to purchase as handsome a dressing-bureau as I would ask.

So you see.

Mr.Jones, that our cheap furniture is not going to turn out so cheap after all.
