So alan with Mrs. Grundy-it would, indeed, be a most difficult task to effectively make .Mr. Tradesmen feel small, or to inflict a becoming snub upon the interloper if the thought wat over present in her mind, that husband Grundy hadn't 'paid for, and probably could not pay for, the beautiful creations that, assist Miss Grandy so much in her social success; and above all this, there would be the knowledge that Mrs. Tradesman knew all about it too!, Stubbing under such circumstances is not so easy as it might otherwise be. So, possibly, this is one of the reasons which had to cause this line of distinction to be drawn.
Self-preservation if the first Law of Nature, we know. Under this gulse we can understand things, but it is all very snobbish and very bumptious.
I admit the right of every man and woman to choose their own companions, and Mr. and Vrs. Grundy have as much right to do so as the rest of creation; but it is also certain that they have not necessarily much to lear were Mr. and Mrs. Tradesman treated on their merilu, for the very good reason that the latter couple would also be careful, very careful, in No Five Insurance will be effected Bills of Lading will be countersigned by the choosing their companions, Undersigned,
