all intents and purposes as the “alla sa-.

United States we have innumerable ex-
pressions of good will over the cups—-.
such, for instance, as “My regards,”
which is eastern; “Here’s hOW," which
is western; “I look to des you, sir,”\
which is southern, or “Here’s my pious/2

“Till we meet again,” “Happy days,"

BIBS. BROWN—“Why, good afternoon, Mrs. Smith. I'mvso glad you’ve come ; take oil your
things and stay to tea, it seems an age since you were here—the children all well ? ”
MRS. SMITH—"Oh yes. quite well, thank you, but I don’t think I ought to stay to tea
though, I’d like to ever so much, you always have everything so nice, how do you manage it?”
MRS. BROWN—"Oh I don’t manage" it at all: you know Mr. Brown does’nt earn but ten del-
lars a week, and we used to trade at Charge do Dun’s, and we used to buy the cheapest kind of
meat they had, and went behind every weekat that. but now we have the best cuts or rib roast
(just think. only 12% cents a pound) for dinner three times a week, and then what is let t is nice
for‘supper. We think roast beef is just as good cold as it is hot.”
._ MRS. SMITH—"So do I, but where in the world can you buy it for 12% cents a pound, we
*have to pay 18. and our butcher says beef has gone up, and next Week it will be 20."
MRS. BROWN—”Why at the People’s Market, don’t you trade there! I thought everybody
did. You can get lovely strawberries for 18c a quart. and. and, Oh i don‘t know what you can’t
get. and the prices, I never saw anything like it. My husband says its just like Washington
Market. ’ ' ‘ ‘ - . ‘
