"I didn't feel a bit nervous at my wedding," she said. "You see, I have been used to private theatricals."
A girl like that mistakes gaiety of head for gaiety of heart.
Her first appearance in a new role
As a sample of vulgar girl-wit at its crudest, I give the following, in which a girl spoke of a lady—
"She couldn't turn white, but she went the colour of an unripe tomato."
Upset by Tomato sauce
The vulgar girl who is "by way of being" witty is not "by way of being" sentimental, and is rather addicted to signing her letters "Your's," which word she believes to be rightly written as above, with an apostrophe. This girl, for the rest, is generally good-natured, and her vein of censure is more often odd than terrible. Thus she said the other day of a dentist—
"He is a horrible little snob, but that doesn't matter when he gets into your mouth."
