Sinopse

Well, father, I don?t believe the Browns are a bit better off than we are, and yet when I spent the day with young Brown, we cooked all sorts of messes in the afternoon, and he wasted twice as much rum and brandy and lemons in his trash, as I should want to make good punch of. He was quite surprised, too, when I told him that our mince-pies were kept shut up in the larder, and only brought out at meal-times, and then just one apiece, he said they had mince-pies always going, and he got one whenever he liked. Old Brown never blows up about that sort of thing, he likes Adolphus to enjoy himself in the holidays, particularly at Christmas. The speaker was a boy-if I may be allowed to use the word in speaking of an individual whose jackets had for some time past been resigned to a younger member of his family, and who daily, in the privacy of his own apartment, examined his soft cheeks by the aid of his sisters? 'back-hair glass.'
