Answer 2

this proverb seems to be the most approprite to prove the story of mrs. packletide. it was seen that though mrs. packletide had no interest in killing a tiger, she gained this strong sudden compelling motive towards the footsteps of nimrod because Loona Bimberton was carried for eleven miles by an algerian aviator. she believed that only a personally procured tiger skin and a heavy harvest of press photographs could encounter a thing like that. the fact which showed her least interest in hunting was when she announced rupees thousand for a tiger shoot with no much excertion. though it was seen that she had successfully outshone loona bimberton at the end, she also had to face it's consequences. miss mebbin, the paid companion for the tiger shoot, had blackmailed mrs packletide for the money to buy her a cottage for the fact that she would reveal loona bimberton about how mrs packletide had shot the goat rather than the tiger. after this incident mrs packletide decided that she would no more involve herself in big game killing as she thinks that the incidental expenses are really heavy.
