A man's appearance indicates how his business is prospering, and his
wife's appearance shows how much he is spending.


In civilized society external advantages make us more respected. A man
with a good coat upon his back meets with a better reception than he

system.--_Johnson_.


A miser grows rich by seeming poor; an extravagant man grows poor by
seeming rich.--_Shenstone_.


Polished brass will pass upon more people than rough gold.
--_Chesterfield_.


In all professions every one affects a particular look and exterior,
in order to appear what he wishes to be thought; so that it may be
said the world's made up of appearances.--_La Rochefoucauld_.
