The way look at it, is this, London is not n
cheap place, but, on the whole, you can get
moro of the real thing for your money there

you can get in most places. Therefore,

to Mrs. SKINS private Hotel and CONNER
cial Lodging House, near Aldersgate street,
City, (it is advertised in Brndsliaw's Rail-
way Guide" where ! first found it) and
there | pay 1" for bed and breakfast, with
meat, two and ninepence per day, including |
servnnis." Now, | have made calculation, |
and am satisfied that Mrs. Skim cannot |
possibly make much profit out of me. In
fact, il all her patrons were like me, my |
opinion is, the woman would be in the Ga
zette next month. Why do | 60 to Mrs.
SKINS when could go to the Clarendon,

pensiye article; whereas sleep at Mrs. SKINS
is decidedly cheap. have made calcutta

considered, that it's cheap. Is 1t an inferior
article, as compared with the Clarendon
sleep, or is it Of the same quality? ! am
heavy sleeper. Then why should 60 10 the
Clarendon!
But ns TO the breakfast? you may say
Very well. As 10 breakfast. could get
variety of delicacies for breakfast at the
Clarendon, that are out Of the question at
Mrs. SKINS. Granted. But / don't want
TO have them. My opinion is, that we are
not entirely animal and sensual. Man has
an intellect bestowed upon him. IL he
clogs thnt intellect by too good breakfast,
how can hc properly exert that intellect in
meditation, during the day, upon his dinner?
That's the point. We are to let il soar.
IL is expected of us.

" "Snoady, you have saved six, eight, ten,
fifteen shillings already to-day. Ii there is
anything you fancy for your dinner, have il.
enoady, you huve earned your reward"
My objection TO London is, that il is the
headquarters of the worst radical sentiments

that il has great many dangerous people in

Household Words') very dangerous, and

with the observation, that am required TO
