I am master, Lecount!" "You are master, sir." "My father was master before me. And I am my father's son. I tell you, Lecount, I am my father's son!" Mrs. Lecount bowed submissively. "I mean to set down any sum of money I think right," pursued Noel Vanstone, nodding his little flaxen head vehemently. "I mean to send this advertisement myself.

Women must be mad, to provoke such a warning; and the majority of them submissively show their good sense. They send up an incense of perfumery, all the bouquets of the chemist commingled; most nourishing to the idea of woman in the nose of man.
