The Real Difference.
"What Is the real difference between the classes and the masses?” asked a man at the club lunch; and several definitions were handed out “I saw in the paper this morning.” the observer said, “In a police court case, a wife described her husband as a good man because he always brought home his wages.” There, one thinks, is a real distinction. The good husband of a certain social standing brings home hls wages and receives from his wife a snurffe amount for pocket money. In that case the wife is the financial expert and looks carefully after her husband’s pockets. And against that there is the other system, where the wife has her pocket money and doesn’t know how her husband spends the rest. It is a real distinction and one would like to know how Mr. Rockefeller would have fared if he had always poured hls wages into his wife’s lap.—Loudon Chronicle.
