Why She Was Despicable.

"I don’t see why you should think Mrs. Wibbersleigh doesn’t know anything. You know she is a graduate of Vassar and is one of the leading spirits in the Woman’s club.” "Well, she’s so stuck-up. She wants to put on so, without any rear son for it.” “Do you think she’s that kind? I’m surprised. The last time I called on her she told me that one of her rugs which I supposed was a very costly one was nothing but an imitation and that they had only paid sl7 for it.” “It isn’t in that way so much. Of course anybody can see that most of the things in her house are cheap and shoddy, but she’* such a namby pamby, selfish creature.”

“Why, really, you surprise me. 1 had supposed she was anything but that You know she works regularly in one of the settlements, and it would make you happy to see her there fondling those poor little ragged children the way she does and acting as if they were just as dear to her as her own are.”
