His expenditures when minister to France were generous in the extreme, but poor health has doubtless forced him into narrower horlzoned social life than he would prefer to lead under other con ditions. Collier, the publisher of Once a Week, believes in horses, dogs and fox hunts. His income is very great and his outgo oorrespondingly large.
