Enquire within upon everything

Have
you
ever
observed
what
a
dislike
servants
have
to
anything
cheap?
They
hate
saving
their
master's
money.
I
tried
this
experiment
with
great
success
the
other
day.
Finding
we
consumed
a
vast
deal
of
soap,
I
sat
down
in
my
thinking
chair,
and
took
the
soap
question
into
consideration,
and
I
found
reason
to
suspect
we
were
using
a
very
expensive
article,
where
a
much
cheaper
one
would
serve
the
purpose
better.
I
ordered
half
a
dozen
pounds
of
both
sorts,
but
took
the
precaution
of
changing
the
papers
on
which
the
prices
were
marked
before
giving
them
into
the
hands
of
Betty.
"Well,
Betty,
which
soap
do
you
find
washes
best?"
"Oh,
please
sir,
the
dearest,
in
the
blue
paper;
it
makes
a
lather
as
well
again
as
the
other."
"Well,
Betty,
you
shall
always
have
it
then;"
and
thus
the
unsuspecting
Betty
saved
me
some
pounds
a
year,
and
washed
the
clothes
better--Rev.
