"And we won't put it down in the book."
"No, not a hounce of it."
So that is what we are going to do about the Harrisons. But it doesn't touch the larger question. Our problem, you will see, is very different from that of other people, and my wife smiles a pale wan smile when she hears her friends endlessly discussing ways and means of keeping within Lord DEVONPORT'S rations. What we want is to discover a means of getting back to that lavish and generous standard of living.
BIS.
CHARADE OF THE RELUCTANT ECONOMIST.
Unconscious that the times are strange,
Enthroned in cushioned ease and quiet,
My first foresees not any change
In his luxurious canine diet.
