And Mrs Tallow might well be surprised
The TACT was, Mr.. TalloH was Que Of thOs'
men who, when they take anything lat,
their heads, to use his own phase, go 1t.
When be vas moueymaking he devoted
all his thoughts 10 money making; nov
when be was money spending, ne devoted
ell his thoughts to money spending. What
ever he did, he did with all MS might.
II took him and his lady some time 4
make sll the arrangements necessary for {
long stsy in London, and so it wss ra,heI
late in the season before they occupied tb'
pretty house at heasiHgto which they haC
taken. They duly notified their arrival L
their distinguished acquaintance; but Il
their disappointment, q month passed with
out any Of these thinking it necessary t.
cali upon them. This was not the treat
ment they expected,
Neither of them was, however, dishear
tened. Nc. Tallow especially kept up bis
spirits, and as the close of the season ap
preached without their having ever seer
any of their noble friends, he resolved &c
call at the Carlton upon the Viscounl
Sxsren. he did so; but his lordship was
not there. He did go sgsin and again;
but still his lordship was not there. Ii
seemed at last as II bis lordship never was
there. Then he went to the House to see
Captain Cash, N. P. The gallant captain
did MOI seem particularly diligent in his
Parliamentary duties, fer it was not until
The fifth time Of going that ar. Taliow had
the pleasure Of seeing him. Fla then asked
the N. P, 70 favor Mrs. Tsllow and him
st dinner on certain night. The NJ P.
could not; ne was engaged. Ne Tallow
suggested another evening, but the NJ. p
was engaged that night too; he suggested
another with the same result. Mr.. Tsllow
enyied the NJ. P. He seemed to have an
engagement for every night.
Matters we're really beginning to look
hopeless, when one morning, as Mrs. Tai
low was glsncing over the Morning Post,
she came upon q notice to the effect that
Lady Gooseberry-wife of the Conserva-
tive ststesmsn-intended to hold at an
early date, a reception of members OF the
Primrose League, Mrs Taliow vss de
lighted. She showed it to her husband,
who was delighted too, Il was clear that
at last they were about to enter the sacred
precincts of society.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tallow awaited impstiently
the approach of their invitations and of the
great night: but although the night sp-
preached rapidly enough thsir invitations,
strange to say, showed no Signs ct coming
They began to get alarmed. 1t was pos.
sible that Lady Gooseberry did not know
that they were in town. Mr.. Tallow resolv.
ed to call at the League Offices, and just
hint that be and his lady had been forgot
ten. To bis Gismay, the clerk there in
formed him that neither would be invited.
The reception would be confined to mem
bers of the Grand Council, to which neither
be Ior his lady belonged.
As Mr.. Tsllow was returning home dis
appointed and enrsged, be passed Lord
Gooseberrys mansion, and as he passed il
be looked b:svely at the doors denied him
When doing 50 he noticed somebody lesv.
