Excerpt from A Servant of the Public Parallel events with the commercial development Of a business, is a Spectacle strange to no country but most common among the nation of shopkeepers; it presents, however, interesting points and is likely to produce a group Of persons rather diverse in character. Some Of the family breathe the new air readily enough; with some the straw of the omnibus (there was straw in omnibuses during the formative period) follows on silken Skirts into the landau. It takes, they say, three generations to make a gentleman; the schools ticket them - National or Board, Commercial or Grammar, Eton or Harrow. Three generations, not perhaps of human żesh, but of mercantile growth, it takes to make a great Concern. The humble parent-tree in the Com mercial Road puts forth branches in Brixton, Camber well, Stoke Newington, wherever buyers are many and turnover quick: here is the second period, when the business is already large and lucrative, but not yet im posing. Then a new ambition stirs and works in the creator's mind; there is still a world to conquer. Appearance is added to reality, Show to substance. A Splendid block rises somewhere within the ken Of fashion; it is red, with white facings, a tower or two.
