"Do they wear sleeves like that now in New York ?" asked she.
"Why, yes!" replied Rose.

"This tea-gown came home only last week from Madame Felix." "They wear sleeves puffed at the bottom instead of the top, and a good deal longer, in East Westland," said Sylvia.
"Why, this was made from a Paris model," said Rose, meekly.

Again sophistication was abashed before the confidence of conservatism.
"I don't know anything about Paris models," said Sylvia.

"Mrs.
Greenaway gets all her patterns right from Boston." "I hardly think madame would have made the sleeves this way unless it was the latest," said Rose.
"I don't know anything about the latest," said Sylvia.

"We folks here in East Westland try to get the _best_." Sylvia felt as if she were chiding her own daughter.
