Lupin
further
said
,
with
much
warmth
,
that
the
world
was
a
different
world
to
him
now
--
it
was
a
world
worth
living
in
.
He
lived
with
an
object
now
,
and
that
was
to
make
Daisy
Mutlar
--
Daisy
Pooter
,
and
he
would
guarantee
she
would
not
disgrace
the
family
of
the
Pooters
.
Carrie
here
burst
out
crying
,
and
threw
her
arms
round
his
neck
,
and
in
doing
so
,
upset
the
glass
of
port
he
held
in
his
hand
all
over
his
new
light
trousers
.

I
said
I
had
no
doubt
we
should
like
Miss
Mutlar
when
we
saw
her
,
but
Carrie
said
she
loved
her
already
.
I
thought
this
rather
premature
,
but
held
my
tongue
.
Daisy
Mutlar
was
the
sole
topic
of
conversation
for
the
remainder
of
the
day
.
I
asked
Lupin
who
her
people
were
,
and
he
replied
:
"
Oh
,
you
know
Mutlar
,
Williams
and
Watts
.
"
I
did
not
know
,
but
refrained
from
asking
any
further
questions
at
present
,
for
fear
of
irritating
Lupin
.

--
Lupin
went
with
me
to
the
office
,
and
had
a
long
conversation
with
Mr.
Perkupp
,
our
principal
,
the
result
of
which
was
that
he
accepted
a
clerkship
in
the
firm
of
Job
Cleanands
and
Co.
,
Stock
and
Share
Brokers
.

Lupin
told
me
,
privately
,
it
was
an
advertising
firm
,
and
he
did
not
think
much
of
it
.
I
replied
:
"
Beggars
should
not
be
choosers
;
"
and
I
will
do
Lupin
the
justice
to
say
,
he
looked
rather
ashamed
of
himself
.
205
In
the
evening
we
went
round
to
the
Cummings
'
,
to
have
a
few
fireworks
.
It
began
to
rain
,
and
I
thought
it
rather
dull
.
One
of
my
squibs
would
not
go
off
,
and
Gowing
said
:
"
Hit
it
on
your
boot
,
boy
;
it
will
go
off
then
.
"
I
gave
it
a
few
knocks
on
the
end
of
my
boot
,
and
it
went
off
with
one
loud
explosion
,
and
burnt
my
fingers
rather
badly
.
I
gave
the
rest
of
the
squibs
to
the
little
Cummings
'
boy
to
let
off
.
206
Another
unfortunate
thing
happened
,
which
brought
a
heap
of
abuse
on
my
head
.
Cummings
fastened
a
large
wheel
set-piece
on
a
stake
in
the
ground
by
way
of
a
grand
finale
.
He
made
a
great
fuss
about
it
;
said
it
cost
seven
shillings
.
There
was
a
little
difficulty
in
getting
it
alight
.
At
last
it
went
off
;
but
after
a
couple
of
slow
revolutions
it
stopped
.
I
had
my
stick
with
me
,
so
I
gave
it
a
tap
to
send
it
round
,
and
,
unfortunately
,
it
fell
off
the
stake
on
to
the
grass
.
Anybody
would
have
thought
I
had
set
the
house
on
fire
from
the
way
in
which
they
stormed
at
me
.
I
will
never
join
in
any
more
firework
parties
.
It
is
a
ridiculous
waste
of
time
and
money
.

Lupin
asked
Carrie
to
call
on
Mrs.
Mutlar
,
but
Carrie
said
she
thought
Mrs.
Mutlar
ought
to
call
on
her
first
.
I
agreed
with
Carrie
,
and
this
led
to
an
argument
.

However
,
the
matter
was
settled
by
Carrie
saying
she
could
not
find
any
visiting
cards
,
and
we
must
get
some
more
printed
,
and
when
they
were
finished
would
be
quite
time
enough
to
discuss
the
etiquette
of
calling
.

.
--
I
ordered
some
of
our
cards
at
Black
's
,
the
stationers
.
I
ordered
twenty-five
of
each
,
which
will
last
us
for
a
good
long
time
.
In
the
evening
,
Lupin
brought
in
Harry
Mutlar
,
Miss
Mutlar
's
brother
.
He
was
rather
a
gawky
youth
,
and
Lupin
said
he
was
the
most
popular
and
best
amateur
in
the
club
,
referring
to
the
"
Holloway
Comedians
.
"
Lupin
whispered
to
us
that
if
we
could
only
"
draw
out
"
Harry
a
bit
,
he
would
make
us
roar
with
laughter
.

At
supper
,
young
Mutlar
did
several
amusing
things
.
He
took
up
a
knife
,
and
with
the
flat
part
of
it
played
a
tune
on
his
cheek
in
a
wonderful
manner
.
He
also
gave
an
imitation
of
an
old
man
with
no
teeth
,
smoking
a
big
cigar
.
The
way
he
kept
dropping
the
cigar
sent
Carrie
into
fits
.
