"Don't talk to me of fashionable people, and exclusives and inclusives I choose to have all my old neighbours, do you hear, girls, and any one else you please." This was the only point upon which their father insisted; and as he left the expense of the arrangements entirely to themselves, the ladies thought it most prudent not to argue the matter.
The caricatures of caricatures of this Elysian state are numberless imagination has been exhausted, sense confounded, grammar put on the rack, the "well of English undefiled" stirred up from the very dregs, to give the excluded pictures of the life of the exclusives yet, what have we?
Then turning to Elizabeth, she added as an explanation, "The 'Exclusives' had no time for Miss O'Day last spring, and I was always too much wrapped up in my music to be good company. So we were not invited to the spreads in the hall. I'm glad, Elizabeth, you broke over and invited us." Miss O'Day's face grew crimson. Elizabeth, too embarrassed to respond, remained silent.
It makes me wild to think of how we owe everybody." "Oh, you can give two or three big receptions this spring and clear millions off the list. And then a dinner party or two for the more exclusives. You won't need to be out of things till June with the fashion for loose-fitting evening gowns; you're so slender. And you'll be out again long before Christmas.
When Blumenthal informed Flora of this unexpected good-fortune, they of course suspected from whom it came; and they looked at each other, and blushed. Mrs. Delano did not escape gossiping remarks.

His eye at last met that of Lecour, and he caught a confusion on the Canadian's countenance which he stored away carefully with the words of de Bailleul.

"You will travel with us," said Sarrion. And the General accepted, looking round to see that his attendants were duly impressed.
"Some trash about your being the great American beauty, with the most odious details, and your having made a match among the 'rare old exclusives. And the strangest stuff about your father his having gone into a 'store' at the age of twelve. And something about your poor sister heaven help us!
They will talk when folks set themselves up as exclusives. But let me tell you one thing, my pretty creature! I am not going to be shut up in a cage while I am here, I assure you. I am determined to see all the lions; go to all fashionable places of amusement, all attractive exhibitions, theatres, concerts, panoramas, every thing that promises the least particle of enjoyment.
It was said that now and then at night she was carried secretly on deck for a breath of air; of course with her small feet she could not walk. The steerage had to be fumigated at intervals and every soul was ordered on deck before the process began. This necessity had evidently not been taken into account by the exclusives, and much difficulty did our good doctor encounter with them.
