I want him to take to blue as a background, with white or cream for relief; but, there! the less taste a person has in dress, the more obstinate he always seems to be.

It is a great pity, because he will never be a success as it is, while there are one or two colours in which he might not really look so bad, with his hat on.
George has bought some new things for this trip, and I'm rather vexed about them.

The blazer is loud.

I should not like George to know that I thought so, but there really is no other word for it.

He brought it home and showed it to us on Thursday evening.
