LIFE IX LODGINGS.
JYom London Fun.
In order to give thoroughly exhaustive ac
bc count of life In lodln, we have to ninkc ex
cursions beyond the strict limits of lodln-llfo
Into the realm of boarding-houses. The board-lng-houee,
to the logical mind, la but a loda;lng
houae "with a diffcrenco"-:-or differentia, as the
lamented Aldrlch Ingeniously puts it.' It is a
lodging-houae, In short, with a sort of club, or
common room. It bears tho same relation to
the lodging-honRe that Wombwcll'f menagerie
bears to the Zoological Gardens. Ia the latter,
the elephant can hear tho roar of the Hon, and
the monkeys know the voices of the cockatoos.
In the former, the animals all live under each
other's observation. The lion sees the elephant
po through the degrading performance of ring
ing a bell for gingerbread nuts; but then the
elephant sees the lion knocked about by a negro
"Lion King." And the monkeys look on they
cannot be subjected to any performance that
can lower them in tho eyes of their fellow
brutes; and the cockatoos chatter they are be
neath the contempt of tho big beasts. But the
-worst of it Is, that the monkeys, on tho strength
of Imitating humanity, and the cockatoos, be
cause they can chatter lu human tonguo, set
themselves up as the cream of society !
That is tho worst of a boarding-house. All
the inhabitants, being poor, live in a scrambling
and petty sort of way; but those who ape the
possession of means arc always sneering at the
honestly hard-np. Give mc says the philoso
pher who pens this tho dire straits of a solitary
lodging to the affected independence of a full
boarding-house ! But it is time we should sur
rey the creatures in our menagerie.
Here you observe the lion of tUc establish
ment. He is an old buck in reality; but he and
all his fellow-boarders think him a Hon. Tho
ingle Jadies who are old enough to know
omo thins of the world without any risk of
being held precocious think him a sad dog.
He has pink notes waiting him on the break
fast-table has been known to dine (with a bou
net) at Richmond and was discovered flirting
with the young lady in a pastrycook's shop by
two of the dragons of prudery specially retained
at Fuzby Mansion. (The boarding-house under
notlco is two private houses rolled into one, and
rejoices in tho distinguished title of Fuzby Man
sion, taking its name from the retired butler
who if I may use the term Inaugurated It.)
The old buck is really a harmless old being, who
delights to be considered a naughty one. The
pink notes come from his sisters. The flirtation
at the pastrycook's cost no more than a penny
bun and a bottle of lemonade. The dinner at
Richmond is, I ear, a pure Action. His naughti
ness like his cigars Is a cheap enjoyment.
His most expensive habit is a coat with fur
facings but it has seen many winters, and has
almost "worked its passage" by this time.
mm$mm
'Hn
These are the two denr young things that set
down our old buck as a monster of iniquity,
but don't love him the less for it. The fair
curled beauty is Miss Spratt, whoso silky mou
stache and .beard are tho envy of young Mogg
(to be hereafter mentioned). The other beauty
is Miss Snook, an intellectual bciug. The sole
employment of these dear souls Is scandal.
They hatch-up the most Breadful stories about
nil the other boarders, and eouflde them to one
another. Do they scandalize each other ? ; Yes !
in. confidence to tho Major's wife, of whom
aore anon. Spratt and Suook both live by divi
dends and the abuse of an unappreclative male
ex. Each dreams of hooking the old buck, and
ne has even gone so far as to angle for young
Mogg Shall I say which? Not i
This is young Mogg. He looks like a fool
and let me add that he Is incapable of deceiving
yon, so that he doesn't look like the thing he is
not. The old buck once induced him to smoke
a cigar but it is the only dissipation he has
ever been known to Indulge in and he suffered
for it I ' He is a very subordinate clerk in an In
surance office, and would be dismissed to-morrow
if ho were not the poor relation of a
director who would have to support him out of
Uj own fwUl it he. cold. not, SSi Uv tympany
IB!!
to do it. 1 oung Mogg Jas a taste for llternttire,
having contributed versos, under tho pseu
donym of "Ogom," to tno "roots corner 01
the little paper published in mo smau town
where he used to live with his mother (whom no
helps to support) before he camo to tho giddy
metropolis. He has been twice taken' to tho
theatre by the director, and has thence Imbibed
a longing to be a burlcsquc-wrlter. Ho once got
up an extravaganza at Fuzby Mansion, called
Goody Two Shoes, In which Suook and Spratt
were hero and heroine -(and 8nook was rather
disappointed that she could not appear In tights,
as tho "Prince"); but tho other boarders invited
some outside friends to swell the audience, who
laughed so incessantly that Mogg became dimly
conscious that the laughter was more than the
piece fairly deserved. ,
This Is Major Bigglesby's wife, and below is
Major Bigglcsby, H. F. I put tho couple in this
order out of an inherent respect for the rules of
precedence. Apart from the fact that Mrs. B. Is
practically tho head of tho family, she once had
an aunt who married the younger brother of a
Scotch nobleman. Mrs. B. is the common re
ceptacle of the scandals Snook and Spratt invent
about each other, and lives in a sort of perpe
tual mental goose-skin in consequence. As the
Major will, In his gallant old soldier style, occa
sionally flirt with those giddy young things, her
soul is sorely vexed. When she catches him at
it she calls him to her side, thus:
"B., dear !" a pause "B., my love! "another
pause "B.l" and then tho Major comes at once,
lie's a good old boy, and bears his disappoint
ments and hardships with a silence, that sheds
on hini more nobility than Mrs. B.'s distant con
nection with the Scotch peerage does on her.
His only failing is an addiction to whisky-aad-water,
which warms him up to the relation of
anecdotes that make the old buck chuckle, and
cause Mogg to blush up to his parting.
This poor lady is tho widow of a professional
man. He paid so much in income tax iu the
wear and tear of his brain as would have pur
chased a comfortable annuity for her and her
child when he Was killed in a railway accident.
He ought to have injured in "Tho Accidental,''
of course but wucu a man nas to Keep up a
position suitable to his profession, and must pay
from ten to sixteen pounds a year income tax on
his hard earnings, it is not so easy to spare that
small four pounds for insurance. His health
had been so delicate no life insurance would
Lave accepted it. bo the poor little woman is
living on a pittance made up of contributions
from her father (a small house-ageut) and her
husband's family i. e., two brothers, a lawyer
in decent practice and a stockbroker.
One of the pleasant amusements of Spratt and
Snook Is to throw out doubts as to whether the
pretty widow was ever married. Mrs. Major
B. considers that she ia far too familiar with
that young man Mo "she doesn't believe in
those quiet ones" becauso Mogg finds the
widow tho only ono who does not at some time
or other snub and despise him, and because the
widow treats tho respectful little fool like a
weak younger brother. Tho old buck pesters
her with his silly attentions, though he dare not
be radc to her, having been taken to task for
attempting a liberty by the Major, wuo never
deals in inuendo iu her presence, and, lu fact,
is quite a tame performing elephant for her
sake, carrying her rather plain child about on
his back wheu cu::imanded by that interest
ing juvenile.
Perhaps, in spite of tho scandal of Spratt and
Snook, the queries of Mrs. B., and the porsccii'
tions of. the buck, our little widow Is the one
who is the most happy In Fuzby Mansion
Mocc is attentive, tho Major polite, and her
child the whole world to her. Hers Is a nature
which, while it is insensible to the scandal and
sneers, is peculiarly grateful for small I kind
nesses.
And thus ends the chronicle of Fuzby , Man
sion. ,
The clerk of a cockney church recently mado
the following announcement to the congrega
tion: "You are desired to attend a meeting in
the vestry at 4 o'clock, to consider on the best
means of 'eating the church and to digest other
matters."
"I am burning to bo at tho enemy again," as
the man whose physician had advised him to
give up smoking remarked when ho lit a fresh
cigar.
