"And when you wish to make any purchase, you will go to the Temple, because here is an example; your greatcoat cost, I suppose, eighty francs; very well, you could have had it at the Temple for thirty."
"Why, that is marvelous! Then you think that with five or six hundred francs, these poor Morels—"
"Will be stocked with everything, first-class, for a long time to come."
"Neighbor, an idea has just struck me."
"Well, what is it about?"
"Do you understand household affairs—are you clever at making purchases?"
"Yes—rather so," said Miss Dimpleton, with a look of simplicity.
"Take my arm, and let us go to the Temple and buy wherewith to clothe the Morels; will that suit you?"
"Oh, what happiness! Poor creatures!—but where's the money?"
"I have sufficient."
