LETTING DOWN TIE ARISTOCRACY. The elegant
Miss Mason, whose father had made IL SPLEEN
dld fortune rs an cntcrpriSing draper and tai
Tor, appeared at a magnificent entertainment.
in royal apparel. With that fastidious excll-
sivcncss for which the latest corners into fash
ionable circles are the most remarkable she
refused various offers of introduction, as she
did not wish to extend the number of her ac-
quantanccs: "her friends were few and very
select"
The beautiful Miss Taylor, radiant with
good natured smiles, once well acquainted with
Miss Mason when they went to the public
school in William Street together, noticed the
hauteur Of her ancient friend, who was deter
mined not to recognize one who would only
remind her of her former low estate. But
Miss Taylor, the rogue, as clever as she was
pretty, determined to bring her up with IL
short turn, and not submit to being snubbed
by one whose ancestral associations were not
better than her own. Watching her chance
when the naughty young lady was in the midst
OF her set, Miss Taylor walked up and with
smiles of winning sweetness remarked.
81 have been thinking, my dear Miss Ma
son, that we ought to exchange namcs."
why, ndeedw
Because my name is Taylor, and my father
was mason, and your name is Mason, and
your father was taiorw
There was scene then, but there was no
help for it. This little Miss Taylor had the
pleasure OF saying a very cute thing, which
was soon repeated in the ears of dozen cir
cles, and the wits wished to see her, but the
proud Miss Mason bit her lips in silence.
