Etiquette may differ in small details, but on the whole the world of society lives the same life, cultivates the same interests, and amuses or bores itself in much the same fashion. It is tout comme chez nous in this as in nearly everything else. On the whole, this elegant crowd shows a somewhat greater amount of deference towards professionals than towards officials.
And let him be himself without shame. Let him ever remember that it is not a sin to be bored by what interests others, or to be interested in what bores others. Let him in this private inquiry give his natural instincts free play, for it is precisely the gradual suppression of his natural instincts which has brought him to his present pass.
I have nothing to do with the purse, but I confine my remarks to the weapons and the game, and I shall avoid technical expressions. The generally recognised small-bores, all of which are termed "Express" from the large charge of powder, are as follow: Small-bore Charge of Large- Charge of For all Game Express. Powder. bores. Powder. such as* '577 6 1/2 drams 4 bore 14 drams Elephants.
"I wish you would," said he, drawing a handful from his jacket pocket. "I should be so much happier." "You can hardly be such a gambler," she laughed. "Oh, no! It's not that at all. Gambling bores me." "Why do you play, then?" "I don't. I staked that louis because I wanted to see whether I should be interested. I wasn't, as I began to think about the guns. Have you had breakfast?"
He is likewise something of a dabbler at reviewing novels, but they must be largely sprinkled with murders, and have plots strong enough to carry anything but the clergy. All other critics are to him great bores; but, like them, he has a price for his services, and will, if you pay him, make Shakspeares and Corneilles of very ordinary persons.
I shall give him a hint whilst he is eating his soup that I have made a vow to coiffer Ste. Catherine." "Virginia!" remonstrates Miss Susan; "and you know Sir Harry Hotspur is to take you." "No, no," cries Virginia, "he bores me to distraction. Besides," laughing, "he 'goes for married women. Let him have Mrs. Ashton, and give me Mr. Vansittart."
I forgot to bring it out when I came, and I don't want to go back now if I can help it, because a party of bores are being shown round in that direction, awful people I've escaped from. You don't know them, so they can't hurt you. Will you, like a dear chap, cut off and grab the book? It's on the table; you can't miss it; purple cover."
In the theoretical work he was naturally far in advance of his comrades; for, despite idleness at school, this was mere child's play to his practised memory. He, who had had to learn hundreds of lines of the "Odyssey" by heart, could easily remember facts about the bores of guns! Klitzing also distinguished himself in these instruction-lessons.
But it was too late; Lady Anne was deaf and blind with passion. She confessed she could not see of what use either of the universities were in this world, except to make bears and bores of young men.
Mitchy leaned back from this, fist within fist, watching her with a certain disguised emotion. He grinned almost too much for mere amusement. "That's the class to which YOU belong." "It's the best one," she returned, "and I'm careful to remain in it. You try to get us, by bribery, into the inferior place, because, proud as you are, it bores you a little that you like us so much.
