Well, father, I don't believe the Browns are a bit better off than
we are; and yet when I spent the day with young Brown, we cooked
all sorts of messes in the afternoon; and he wasted twice as much
rum and brandy and lemons in his trash, as I should want to make
good punch of. He was quite surprised, too, when I told him that
our mince-pies were kept shut up in the larder, and only brought
out at meal-times, and then just one apiece; he said they had
mince-pies always going, and he got one whenever he liked. Old
Brown never blows up about that sort of thing; he likes Adolphus to
enjoy himself in the holidays, particularly at Christmas. The
speaker was a boy-if I may be allowed to use the word in speaking
of an individual whose jackets had for some time past been resigned
to a younger member of his family, and who daily, in the privacy of
his own apartment, examined his soft cheeks by the aid of his
sisters' "back-hair glass."
