“William,” said a lady io her footman, “i desire that you shall treat the society reporter properly when he calls here.” “Yes’m.” “And instead of handing any victuals out to him by the back door, invite him into the kitchen to eat ’em,” “Yes’m. ’’ “I am not particular about having my name in the paper, but when a society reporter comes to this house to obtain information about my parties, I want you to take care of him. Give him a bite of evercthipg that comes down stairs and let him have all the wine that is left in the glasses when the gentlemen leave the dining-room to join the ladies,”— Boston Courier.
