Mrs. Lambert, a bustling, organising lady who happened to be the daughter of an obscure peer, though she dressed almost as shabbily as some of the charwomen, did her best in a cheery way to make her guests mix, and served out tea and coffee, sandwiches and buns, indefatigably, while she snatched little conversations, on the political situation and the latest measures of social reform, with professors, journalists, and trade-union leaders.
