toplofty

On the evening of the theater party, Mrs. Toplofty herself stands in the lobby to receive the guests.

Her grandmother, who was a Toplofty, made all her grandchildren walk daily across a polished floor with sand-bags on their heads.

But all their gay upper works, so toplofty and frail, showed a gleaming white front to the western sun.

Mrs. Toplofty asked you to dinner to-night and I accepted for you—hope that was all right.

No one, however, has discovered that invitations to Mrs. Toplofty's are any less welcome.
