Sakari
The dear lady is pleased to be facetious.
Mrs. Dowsett
He has had the effrontery to ask me to explain the cause of high prices. Mr. Dowsett says the reason is that the people are living so high.
Sakari
Such a marvelous country. They are poor because they have so much to spend.
Chalmers
Are not high prices due to the increased output of gold?
Mrs. Dowsett
Mr. Sakari suggested that himself, and when I agreed with him he proceeded to demolish it. He has treated me dreadfully.
