It had not been built, and it was not run, strange to say, to advertise a certain brand of piano. Xavier was an old Jew, of surpassing ugliness, from Cracow or some such place. He looked a rascal, and he was one admittedly; he himself would imply it, if not crudely admit it. He had no personal interest in music, either high-class or low-class.
Different personal and social ideals were fostered by the two industrial systems. The Southerner of the dominant class looked on manual labor as fit only for slaves and low-class whites.
It is only the murderers who attract much public attention, but the supply of low-class prostitutes is also largely due to these free adventures of the base.
The people wear gaudy prints and dirty mantles bespangled with gold. There were a great many low-class music-halls and gambling- and dancing-saloons. Port Said is in fact a sort of Egyptian Wapping, and I am told the less one knows about its morals the better.
The highlands of labour are drained by this natural flow; even the strain of competition in skilled hand-labour finds sensible relief by the voluntary emigration of the more adventurous artisans, but the poor low-skilled workers suffer here again by reason of their poverty: no natural movement can relieve the plethora of labour-power in low-class employments.

Her nerves are out of order.
If you married a Gorgio, you would still sigh for the camp beneath the stars, for the tambourine and the dance " "And the fortune-telling," she interjected sharply, "and the snail-soup, and the dirty blanket under the hedge, and the constable on the road behind, always just behind, watching, waiting, and " "The hedge is as clean as the dirty houses where the low-class Gorgios sleep.
And at that, he, Yada, had slipped into the house, quietly closed the front door behind him, gone into the front room, hidden himself behind a curtain and waited. Into that front room, Chen Li had presently conducted a man. He was, said Yada, a low-class Englishman what is called a Cockney. He had begun to threaten Chen Li at once. He told his tale.
In the military service, especially in the cavalry, all ranks are aristocratic; one knows at once that even a junker is from the nobility. But what is a provincial secretary, or a titular councillor! Any one can be a titular councillor even a merchant, a church-school graduate, a low-class townsman, if you please. You have only to study, then serve awhile.
