la 11 sy-mptetn of vugarlty. The over ever
dressed and constantly hedtamended
woman who flaunts her riches In the face
of poorer acquaintances Is, In the Irish
phrase, "surprised at herself." Hhe Ii
showing that she Is net uccustnmtd ta
money and te what money can buy; h
has net yet nttalned the perfect sim
plicity which Is the ultimate token of
geed breeding.
Hut hew few realize that poverty
shame la as vuj-ar as any cheap arfe.
gatice of the newly rich. The woman
who feels mortified by the contrast tx.
tween a neighbor's wealth and her own
lack of riches and who shows her humil
iated feelings tee plainly Is simply play.
Ing the ether woman's hand : she, tee,
Is thinking of money valuations alone.
Yet the simplicity rf genuine refinement
nan nothing te de with price tlcketl!
It Is neither proud of riches nor ashamed
of a small Income.
