a constant fight against circumstances. Her tenants pay her as seldom
and as little as they can; sometimes they disappear, and she loses her
money; while if they stay, there are no chances of extracting extras,

keeper to affluence. Terms are close and invariably inclusive. The

and anxious not to give any trouble; so evidently a person who did not
really live in bustling, elbowing London, but in some dreamy mental
world of his own, that his good hostess, merely as an experiment and
entirely without prejudice, as the legal man puts it, tentatively placed
on his bill for the week some trifling item, that, strictly speaking,
was merely placed there to be taken off again, if complaint were made,
or allowed to stand if overlooked. Of course, under these circumstances,
the landlady was in expectation of a row, during which epithets
reflecting upon her financial probity might be hurled at her, when she,
with voluble excuses for her unfortunate mistake, would correct the
error and assure the lodger that such a thing would not occur again.
After a few essays of this kind, all perfectly just and proper in a
