Its houses are built on the ground of monstrously rich, shabbily extortionate landowners, by poor, parsimonious, greedy people in a mood of elbowing competition. So you see our poor, dear Kippses going to and fro, in Hythe, in Sandgate, in Ashford and Canterbury and Deal and Dover-at last even in Folkestone, with "orders to view," pink and green and white and yellow orders to view, and labelled keys in Kipps' hand and frowns and perplexity upon their faces.… He spent a good deal of money in advertising in the daily papers, but got no answers. For one consequence, it has very few nice little houses, such things do not come for the asking, they are not to be bought with money during ignoble times. Honeymoons and all things come to an end, and you see at last Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Kipps descending upon the Hythe platform-coming to Hythe to find that nice little house-to realise that bright dream of a home they had first talked about in the grounds of the Crystal Palace. All the houses they saw had a common quality for which she could find no word, but for which the proper word is incivility. If I saw the dazed eyes of a new soldier, I divined that probably he did not catch a word.

The mists of noble emotion swirl and pass and there you are divorced from all your deities and grazing in the meadows under the Argus eyes of the social system, the innumerable mean judgments you feel raining upon you, upon your clothes and bearing, upon your pretensions and movements. Her clothes did not suit her at all. That was all. And you know, the hat didn't suit Ann a bit. Kipps had looked at the passers-by and it had suddenly occurred to him that Ann was dowdy. A circumstance occurred which made me retire early from any attempt to assume the slightest authority. When I get that study," said Kipps, "I shall do a bit of reading I've long wanted to do. I shall make a nabit of going in there and reading something an hour every day. They might make him a K.C.B., it is true; but he does not belong to the Simla Band of Hope, and stars must not be allowed to shoot madly from their sphere. Then he would make a renewed appeal to me beginning by an unanswerable plea, "if you wish to please me," and imploring me not to join in discussions concerning any one.

One of his favorite books was a life of Daniel Webster, given him in the States by a dear friend. Her bosom friend had often described it to her, and now here in her exile she met an acquaintance who had been there. I was turned out of the dining-room at once, and sent here until the committee have decided what to do with me. I think that any student of cue sports and especially carom should have books from both of those authors in their personal libraries. The World Union of Billards (Union Mondiale de Billard) is the world governing body for carom (carambole) billiard games. Our world to-day is a meanly conceived one-it is only an added meanness to conceal that fact. We English-all the world indeed to-day-live in a strange atmosphere of neglected great issues, of insistent, triumphant petty things, we are given up to the fine littlenesses of intercourse; table manners and small correctitudes are the substance of our lives. They are a valiant couple, you perceive, but small, and the world is a large incongruous system of complex and difficult things. And Ann--. It is hard to say just what Ann observed of these things.

When this had been repeated several times, my husband used to look up so merrily and say to me it was remarkable how temporary consumption increased after the hour of bedtime had come. As to abolishing the old Colonel, this too presents its difficulties, for Sir Norman Henry and all the celebrated cocked-hats at home and abroad look upon the Indian Staff Corps as Pygmalion looked on his Venus. In Dakota's severe cold it looked like a parade of animals at the Zoo! There's Shakespeare and a lot of things a man like me ought to read. Like I said in general this is playeɗ on a billіards shelve (with no ⲣockets); however, it iѕ besides really exciting to romp with the pockets… However, billiards is the kind of game that is different wherever you go. The unseen game was going on at a tremendous rate. If we was going to let in summer-well and good. It is good to ask him to place his old knees under your hospitable board, and to fill him with wholesome wine, while he decants the mellow stories of an Anglo-India that is speedily dissolving from view.
