REASONS WHY I WEAR CRINOLINE.
Extorted from Miss Busselton, by one who owns himself a Brute.
- Because it’s quite the thing to wear it.
- Because you know everybody has got to wear it now.
- Because it sets one off so.
- Because gentlemen admire it so. (Oh, yet, they may say they don’t, but I know quite well they do.)
- Because – well, you know one doesn’t always want to have one’s ancles criticised.
- Because – well, now I’m sure it’s very tiresome in you to keep on questioning me so, and I’ve really a good mind not to say another word to you.
- Because – Oh, you really want to know my real reason, do you! Well, then, Mr.Curious, I wear Crinoline because I like it, Sir. And I don’t care whether you do.
