have a city house. not only as home,
but also for the purpose OF entertaining.

Invitations that may be offered TO her.
and TO lease a house suitable for such
purposes will incur an expense OF 5000

OTHER NECESSARY EXPENSES.
To give Miss Campbell the social advan-
tages OF this city II will be necessary for
her TO give a ball during the winter
months and q series Of dinners and
dances: also theatre parties, and she
must have a box at the opera. All these
things will add greatly TO the expendi-
lures incurred for her In former years,
and In addition there will be her trav-
cling expenses.
In view Of these circumstances and taxi
ing into consideration the amount of her
present income and what II will eventuai-
ly become, the mothers request for an
increase IN the daughters allowance was
considered reasonable.
