Adolf Scherer, a really wonderful tea set of old English silver given by Senator and Mrs. Watling, and Nancy Willett, with her certainty of good taste, had sent an old English tankard of the time of the second Charles. The secret was in that room. The September sunlight was heavy, tinged with gold....
It seems Horse's Neck is played out and they are going to reorganize it " "Who are?" demanded her employer, suddenly sitting erect. "Scherer, Hunn, Greenbaum & Beck." "The dickens they are!" he ejaculated. "That bunch of pirates? Not if I know it!" "Why not?" "Reorganize! Reorganize? Reorganization is my middle name!" cried Mr. Tutt.
He had been absent from Geneva during the years of conflict which had preceded Fazy's triumph; he seems to have had no family or party connections with the leaders of the defeated side, and as M. Scherer points out, he could accept a non-political post at the hands of the new government, two years after the violent measures which had marked its accession, without breaking any pledges or sacrificing any convictions.

"'Rebates, for one, said he, 'you get preferential rates from your railroad which give you advantages over your competitors. Foolishness!" Mr. Scherer exclaimed.
And when I went home I asked Maude to call on Mrs. Scherer. "On Mrs. Scherer!" she repeated. "Yes, I want you to invite them to dinner." The proposal seemed to take away her breath. "I owe her husband a great deal, and I think he feels hurt that the wives of the men he knows down town haven't taken up his family."
She has not the heart, it is so with all your people of society. For them it is not what you are, but what you have done, and what you have."
