Summary: Print shows a vignette cartoon chronicling the social and financial fortunes of the 'Smallclip' family following Mrs. Smallclip's interview with reporters and artists for the society pages of the newspaper, which leads to a dinner with 'old friends' at their 'modest home', resulting in another notice in the society news where they are referred to as 'leaders of fashion'; this causes Mrs. Smallclip to refurnish their home 'on a scale in keeping with her new social status', which places a financial strain on Mr. Smallclip who is beset with bills as the cost of Mrs. Smallclip's ascending social status begins to overwhelm him. The final vignette shows the Smallclip family a year later in humble housing, Mr. Smallclip having failed to meet the financial obligations of society leadership.
