I
do
n't
know
why
it
is
,
but
I
never
anticipate
with
any
pleasure
the
visits
to
our
house
of
Mrs.
James
,
of
Sutton
.
She
is
coming
again
to
stay
for
a
few
days
.
I
said
to
Carrie
this
morning
,
as
I
was
leaving
:
"
I
wish
,
dear
Carrie
,
I
could
like
Mrs.
James
better
than
I
do
.
"
Carrie
said
:
"
So
do
I
,
dear
;
but
as
for
years
I
have
had
to
put
up
with
Mr.
Gowing
,
who
is
vulgar
,
and
Mr.
Cummings
,
who
is
kind
but
most
uninteresting
,
I
am
sure
,
dear
,
you
wo
n't
mind
the
occasional
visits
of
Mrs.
James
,
who
has
more
intellect
in
her
little
finger
than
both
your
friends
have
in
their
entire
bodies
.
"
I
was
so
entirely
taken
back
by
this
onslaught
on
my
two
dear
old
friends
,
I
could
say
nothing
,
and
as
I
heard
the
'
bus
coming
,
I
left
with
a
hurried
kiss
--
a
little
too
hurried
,
perhaps
,
for
my
upper
lip
came
in
contact
with
Carrie
's
teeth
and
slightly
cut
it
.
It
was
quite
painful
for
an
hour
afterwards
.
When
I
came
home
in
the
evening
I
found
Carrie
buried
in
a
book
on
Spiritualism
,
called
There
is
no
Birth
,
by
Florence
Singleyet
.
I
need
scarcely
say
the
book
was
sent
her
to
read
by
Mrs.
James
,
of
Sutton
.
As
she
had
not
a
word
to
say
outside
her
book
,
I
spent
the
rest
of
the
evening
altering
the
stair-carpets
,
which
are
beginning
to
show
signs
of
wear
at
the
edges
.
Mrs.
James
arrived
and
,
as
usual
,
in
the
evening
took
the
entire
management
of
everything
.
Finding
that
she
and
Carrie
were
making
some
preparations
for
table-turning
,
I
thought
it
time
really
to
put
my
foot
down
.
I
have
always
had
the
greatest
contempt
for
such
nonsense
,
and
put
an
end
to
it
years
ago
when
Carrie
,
at
our
old
house
,
used
to
have
séances
every
night
with
poor
Mrs.
Fussters
(
who
is
now
dead
)
.
If
I
could
see
any
use
in
it
,
I
would
not
care
.
As
I
stopped
it
in
the
days
gone
by
,
I
determined
to
do
so
now
.
I
said
:
"
I
am
very
sorry
Mrs.
James
,
but
I
totally
disapprove
of
it
,
apart
from
the
fact
that
I
receive
my
old
friends
on
this
evening
.
"
Mrs.
James
said
:
"
Do
you
mean
to
say
you
have
n't
read
There
is
no
Birth
?
"
I
said
:
"
No
,
and
I
have
no
intention
of
doing
so
.
"
Mrs.
James
seemed
surprised
and
said
:
"
All
the
world
is
going
mad
over
the
book
.
"
I
responded
rather
cleverly
:
"
Let
it
.
There
will
be
one
sane
man
in
it
,
at
all
events
.
"
Mrs.
James
said
she
thought
it
was
very
unkind
,
and
if
people
were
all
as
prejudiced
as
I
was
,
there
would
never
have
been
the
electric
telegraph
or
the
telephone
.
I
said
that
was
quite
a
different
thing
.
Mrs.
James
said
sharply
:
"
In
what
way
,
pray
--
in
what
way
?
"
