The Book of Snobs

CHAPTER XLIV--CLUB SNOBS
4/16

Gobemouche does not take more than two papers at a time for his private reading.

Tiggs does not ring the bell and cause the library-waiter to walk about a quarter of a mile in order to give him Vol.II., which lies on the next table.

Growler has ceased to walk from table to table in the coffee-room, and inspect what people are having for dinner.

Trotty Veck takes his own umbrella from the hall--the cotton one; and Sydney Scraper's paletot lined with silk has been brought back by Jobbins, who entirely mistook it for his own.

Wiggle has discontinued telling stories about the ladies he has killed.
