''On Tuesday, August u, just month
after leaving, l will be at my business in
New York. The only expense outside OF
the 5000 to be incurred will be such
gratuities as / choose to give and my
washing. l can have III pounds of bag
gage to and from London, and Sc pounds
between London and Paris.
''If l take a months vacation in this
country it will cost me nearly 5000, and il
l choose to buy myself an outfit in Lon
don and bring it home l can save half OF
that sum by the difference in the cost OF
things on the two sides of the Atlantic
The only thing about such a trip that is
disagreeable is the physical and nervous
strain. l wouldn't advise a sickly man
or dyspeptic to take it.'
