EyTRkVAGANCE.

We were amused the other day by the
statement OF a gentleman that, when beef
was ten cents pound, his wife ate but little
or none, but now when it is twenty cents,
she eats it three times n day. our thought
was that this fairly represented the average
American, who wants and will have, that
which is the hardest to get, and the more
nearly unattainable thing, the greater the
effort to procure it.
As rule the American people are the
most extravagant in the world. The New
York Rerdld talks OF this extravaganza Of
our countrymen as follows:
Americans are laughed at by all observing
Europeans for their habit Of valuing every
thing according to its price instead Of its
worth, and there is certainly some proyoea-
ton for the laughter. Abroad the American
must travel first class, although many rich
natives End second class accommodation
sufficient, and he drinks, with bis dinner,
wines better than some noblemen uncork,
except when guests are at the table In
America the same frenzy impels him while
travelling to crowd into an eyesore called
"palace car" while seats are 10 spare in
cheaper ears with equally good springs. In
his house however, be shows his rage for
first-class living by demanding the highest
priced meat two or three times day. If
mutton were a dollar a pound every one
would insist upon mutton, even if he had 10
economic by cutting down his pew rent and
wearing secondhand overcoat but as beef
usually costs nearly twice as much as any
other meat every spirited Amercan-at least
in New York-insists upon prime roasts and
porter-house steaks. Beet Of itself is not
enough he muat have the choicest cuts,
and no butcher in this city was ever known
10 have enough OF these rare bits to supply
the demand.
