 Their treatment of women is en a par with old Hiram Doolitttle's treat ment of his wife. He made her keep a cash account. and he would go over it every night. growing and grumbling like this:
 Look here, Hannah-mustard plasters. 50 cents: three teeth ex- tracted. two dollars. There's s2.5o in one day srent for your own private pleasure. Do you think I'm made of money?"
