"Tlmt'B the third umbrella gone pineo
Christina. V hut wire yon to dot Why, let
him po home in the riiin, to be sure. I'm
very certain there wns nothing about him
that could spoil. Take cold, indeed! He
docen't look like one of the sort to take cold.
Besides, he'd have better taken cold than take
our only umbrella. Do you hear the rain,
Mr. Caudle? I say, do you hear the rain J
Awl as I'm alive, if it isn't .St. Swithin's
ljay! Do you hear it against the windows ?
Nonsense; yon don't impose upon me. You
can't be nsioep with such a shower as that I
Do you liei r it. 1 sav t Oh. von do hear It t
Well, that's a pretty Hood, I think, to last for
six veeK ; una no stirring all the time out of
the house l'ooh ! don't think me a fool,
Mr. Caudle. Don't insult me. lie return tho
umbrella ! Any body would think you were
4Lorn yesterday. As if anybody ever did re
turn an umbrella 1 There do you hear it .'
Worse and worse ! Cats and dogs, and for six
wee kb always six weeKS. And no um
brella! "1 frhould like to know how the children are
A go to school to-morrow f They sha'n't go
iirougii mien weatiier, I'm determined. INo :
they shall stop at home, and never learn any
thing the blessed creatures ! sooner than go

I iwonderwho they'll have to thank for know-
MnT T1,tl,ii,v ..-La i.wl.w.,1 1 ... 4 41...:- O
t,'r Ti iiw, jnutn-n, uuv bneu luilier
71'eople who can't feel for their own children
I ought never to be fathers.
"But I know w hy you lent the umbrella.
Oh, yes ; I know very well. I was going out
to tea at dear mother's to-morrow you
knew that ; and you did it on purpose. Don't
tell me ; you hate me to go there, and take
every mean advantage to hinder me. But
don't you think it, Mr. Caudle. No, sir : if it
.tomes down in buckets-full. I'll co all the more.
No: and I won't have a cab. Where do you
think the money's to come from ?, You've got
nice high notions at that club of yours. A
eab. indeed ! Cost me sixteen-nence at least
sixteen-peuce ! two-and-eightence, for there's
back again. Cabs, indeed ! I should like to
know who a 4o pay for 'em ; J can't pay for
'ein, and I'm sure you can't, if you go on as
you do ; throwing away your property, and
beggaring your children buying umbrellas !
"Do you hear the rain, Mr. Caudle ? I
6iy, do you hear it r But I don t care I 11
go to mother's to-morrow, I will ; and what's
uore, I'll walk every step of tho way and
yju know that will give me my death. Don't
call me a foolish woman ; it's you that's the
foolish man. You know I can't wear clogs ;
and, with no umbrella, the wet's sure to give
me a cold it always does. But what do you
care for that 1 Nothing at all. I may be laid
up for what you care, as I dare say I shall
and a pretty doctor's bill there'll be. I hope
Ihere will ! It will teach you to lend your
Umbrellas again. I shouldn't wonder if I
caueht my death ; yes : and that's what vou
, lent the umbrella for. Of course 1
4 "Nice clothes I shall got too, trapseing
: through weather like this. My gown and
' bonnet will be spoilt quite. Needn't I wear
'em then i Indeed, Mr. Caudle, I shall wear
i 'em. No, sir, I'm not going out a dowdy to
v ' jjiease you or uiiyuouy eise. utiacious Knows i
it isn't often that I step over the threshold ;
if indeed, I might as well be a slave at once
' better, I should say. But when I do go out,
Mr. Caudle, I choose to go like a lady. Oh t
that rain if it isn't enough to break in the
windows.
"Ugh! I do look forward with dread for
to-morrow! How I am to go to mother's I'm
sure 1 can't tell. But if I die, I'll do it. No,
sir ; I won't borrow an umbrella. No ; and
you sha'n't buy one. Now, Mr. Caudle, only
listen to . this : if you bring home another
umbrella, I'll throw it in the street. I'll have
my own umbrella, or none at all.
"Ha I and it was only last weeK l nan a new
nozzle put to that umbrella. I'm sure, if I'd
have known as much as 1 do now, it might
have gone without one for me. Paying for
new nozzles, for other people to laugh at you.
Oh, it's all very well for you you can go to
sleep. Y'ou've no thought of your poor
?atient wife, and your own dear children,
on think of nothing but lending umbrellas !
"Men, indeed ! call themselves lords of
the creation ! pretty lords, when they can't
even take care of an umbrella !
"I know that walk to-morrow will be the
death of me. But that's w hat you want then
you may go to your club, and do as you like
and then, nicely my poor dear children will
' be used but then, sir, then you'll be happy.
Oh, don't tell me ! I know you will. Else
you'd never have lent the umbrella !
"You have to go on Thursday about that
6ummons ; and, of course, you can't go. No,
indeed, you don't go without the umbrella.
You may lose the debt for what I care it
won't be so much as spoiling your clothes
better lose it : people deserve to lose debts
who lend umbrellas !
"And 1 should like to know how I'm to go
to mother's without tho umbrella ? Oh, don't
tell me that 1 said I irould go that's nothing to
do with it; nothing at all. She'll think I'm
neglecting her, and the little money we were
to have we sha'n't have at all because we've
no umbrella.
"The children, too ! Dear things ! They'll
be sopping wet : for they sha'n't stop at homo
they sha'n't lose their learning ; it's all
their father will leave 'em, I'm sure. But
they shall go to school. Don't tell me I said
they shouldn't : you are so aggravating,
Caudle; you'd spoil the temper of .an angel.
They shull go to school ; mark that. And if
they get their deaths of cold, it's not my
fault I didn't lend tho umbrella."
"At length," writes Caudle, "1 fell asleep ;
and dreamt that the sky was turned into
tjreen calico, with whalebone ribs ; that, in
ia?t, the whole world turned round under a
tremtidous umbrella!"
THE SEVENTH LECTURE.
MR. CAUDLE HAS VK.V1TRKD A REMONSTRANCE OX
H1H pay's iun.nkh: COLD MUTTON, AND NO
PCDDINO. MRS CAUDLE DKKENDS THE COLD
BHOULDKR.
"I'm sure ! Well ! I wonder what it will
be next ? There's nothing proper now no
thing at all. Better cet somebody else to keep
the house, I think. I can't do it now, it
eems; I'm only in the way here: I'd better
take the children, and go.
"What am I grumbling about now? It's
very well for you to ask that ! I'm sure I'd
letter be out of the world than there now,
Mr. Caudle; there you are again! I shall
ppeak, sir. It isn't often I open my mouth,
lleaven knows ! But you like to hear nobedy
talk but yourself. Yu ought to have mar
ried a negro slave, and not any respectable
woman.
"You're to go about the house looking like
thunder all the day, and I'm not to nay a word.
"Where do you think pudding's to coma (mm
. very day ? You show a nice example to vour
t children, you do; complaining, and turning
A your nose up at a sweet piece of cold mutton,
iMcause mere's no pudding ! ou go a nice
way to make 'em extravagant teach em' nice
lessons to begin the world with. Do you
know what puddings cost; or do you think
they fly in at the window ?
"You bate cold mutton. The more shame
for you, Mr. Caudle. I'm sure you've the
stomach of a lord, you have. No, sir; I didn't
choose to hash the mutton. It's veiy easy for
you to say hash it: but know what a joint
loses in hashing: it's a day's dinner the less, if
it's a bit. Yes, I dare say; other people may
have puddings with cold' mutton. No doubt
of it; and other people Income bankrupts.
But if ever you get into the '(Jaette,' it
sha'n't be my fault no; I'll do my duty as a
wife to you, Mr. Caudle: you shall never have
it to bay that it was my housekeeping that
brought you to tx-ggary. No; you may sulk
at the cold meat ha ! I hope you'll never live
to want such a piece of cold mutton as we had
to-day ! and you may threaten to go to a tavern
to dine; but, with our present means, not a
crumb of pudding do you get from me. You
shall have nothing but the cold joint nothing,
as I'm a Christian sinner.
"Yes; there you are, throwing those fowls
in my face again ! I know you once brought
home a pair of fowls; I know it: and wer'n't
you mean enough to want to stop 'em out of
my week's money 1 Oh, the selfishness the
shabhiness of men ! They can go out and
throw away pounds upon pounds with a pack
of people who laugh at 'em afterwards; but if
it's anything wanted for their own homes,
their poor wives may hunt for it. I wonder
you don't blush to name those fowls .again!
I would't be so little for the world, Mr.
Caudle !
"What are you going to do ? Going to get.
tip? Don't make yourself ridiculous, Mr.
Caudle; I can't say a word to you like any
other wife, but you must threaten to get up.
Do be ashamed of yourself.
"Buddings, indeed ! Do you think I'm made
of puddings ? Didn't you have some boiled
rice three weeks ago ? Besides, is this the
time of the year for puddings ? It's all very
well if I hail money enough allowed mo like
any other wife to keep the house with: then,
indeed, I might have preserves like any other
woman; now it's impossible; and it's cruel
yes, Mr. Caudle, cruel of you to expect it.
"Apples a'r'ntso dear, are. theyi I know what
apples are, Mr. Caudle, without your telling
me. But I suppose you want something more
than apples for dumplings ? I suppose sugar
costs something, doesn't it ? And that's how
it is. That's how one expense brings on
another, and that's how people go to ruin.
"J'ancaken? What the use of your lying
muttering there about pancakes ? Don't you
always have 'em once a year every Shrove
Tuesday? And what would any moderate,
decent man, want more ?
"Pancakes, indeed! Pray, Mr. Caudle no,
it's no use your saying fine words to mo to
let you go to sleep; 1 sha'n't! pray do you
know the price of eggs just now ? There's not
an egg you can trust to under seven and eight
a shilling; well, you've only just to reckon up
how many eggs don't lie swearing there at
the eggs, in that manner, Mr. Caudle; unless
you expect the bed to let you fall through.
You call yourself a respectable tradesman, I
suppose ? Ha ! I only wish people knew you
as well as I do ! Swearing at eggs, indeed !
But I'm tired of this usage, Mr. Caudle; quite
tired of it; and I don't care how soon it is
ended !
"I'm sure I do nothing but work and labor,
and think how to make the most of everything:
and this is how I'm rewarded. I should like
to soe any body whose joints go further than
mine. But if I was to throw away your money
in the street, or lay it out in fine feathers on
myself, I should lie better thought of. The
woman who studies her husband and her
family is always made a drudge of. It's your
fine fal-lal wives who've the best time of it.
"What's the use of your lying groaning
there in that manner ? That won't make me
hold my tongue, I can tell you. You think 'to
have it all your own way but you won't, Mr.
Caudle ! You can insult my dinner; look like
a demon, I may say, at a wholesome piece of
cold mutton ah ! the thousands of far better
creatures than you are who'd be thankful for
that mutton ! and I'm never to ppeak ! Jiut
you're mistaken I will ! Your usage of me,
Mr. Caudle, is infamous unworthy of a man.
I only wish people knew you for what you are;
but I've told you again and again they shall
some day.
"Puddings ! And now I suppose I shall
hear of nothing but puddings ! Yes, and I
know what it would end in. First, you'd have
a pudding every day; oh, I know your ex
travagance then you'd go for fish then I
shouldn't wonder if you'd have soup; turtle,
no doubt: then you'd go for a dessert; and
oh ! I see it all as plain as the quilt before me
but no, not while I'm alive ! What your
second wife may do, I don't know; perhaps
she'll le a fine lady; but you sha'n't bo ruined
by me, Mr. Caudle; that I'm determined. Pud
dings, indeed ! l'u-dding-s t Pudd"
"Exhausted nature," says Caudle, "could
hold out no longer. She went to sleep."
