For decades, collar-buttons have been on the hand-me-down shelves of humor; it is a mistake in the catalogue. They belong to pathos. They have done harm in the world, and there have been collar-buttons that failed when the destinies of families hung upon them. There have been collar-buttons that thwarted proper matings.

William's broken collar-button was really the only collar-button in the house, except such as were engaged in serving his male guests below.英文原著 · 《Seventeen》
