all wish TO do the best we can for
our girls. We don't lavish money
like water on their music and dress
ing and manners, to throw 'em away
on poor men that can't keep up the
style they're accustomed to. What's
that You'd rather see Cerintha
married to young Fisher, Just be-
ginning life. than to Flummery with
his seven thousand year income
Well, did everl Fishers a nice,
quiet young man, and I've heard
say he had talents, but talents amt
anything in fashionable life, only
for us to patronize who have money,
MIR. Rasher. For my part I think
talents is great bore. Flummery
is smart.--real smart in a genteel
way. He can say such pert things
and he's quite witty, though not in
the punning line like you, husband.
And he's so critical. 1t always
seemed to me as If his eyeglass spi-
ed out every deficiency; and he's
quite contemptuous about talents in
society. l think he can pay COM
pliment the most gracefully of any
man l ever met. "Better'n he can
pay his bills" Do you mean to in
sinuate that he does not pay his
debts1 Why, he rich, and of course
he pays for everything he has.
"Fisher'll be worth two of him in
less than ten years" You're a per
feet bow WOW, Rasher, always bark
ing at the moon. You've got a spite
against Flummery, or you don't
want Cerintha to marry, or some
thing, and you're just worrying me
with saying things without any
foundation. You can g:owl as
much as you please, 1 intend to
have my own way about marrying
my own girls. What fault can you
find with Flummery that worth
speaking about "His health is
poor. his habits are bad, and he
wants to marry for money not love 4"
| like hun all the better for being
delicate; its proof OF good blood /;
he's just sickly enough to to be pale
and interesting. AS to his bad
habits, they are no worse then men
of his set. He wouldn't be what he
is if he didn't keep fast horses, and
drink good vino, and enjoy himself
on his money, | don't think it ill
hurt his wife if he does come home
little late once in a while, or if he
