Once upon time there lived man
who wanted only a few things that
everybody wants. He wanted plenty to
eat and drink, leisure and the woman
he loved. But he found that to have
time to himself to make it possible 10
live pleasantly with his sweetheart and
give her all he wanted and to take care
of the children that they might have
to do all this he must have great deal
OF money. So he went to work and
built up great business, very com
plicated machinery. To this money
producing machinery he was forced to
give most of his energy. 1t gave him
no time for leisure. no energy for en-
joying the sunshine. his wife and chill
dren. But he began to enjoy the ma
chinery of his business.
When he had made a large fortune
the only thing he enjoyed was the ma
chinery by which he could make more
money. He had lost his interest in the
things for which he began his business
Perhaps he still had interest in food
his wife and all the naive physical and
sentimental pleasures. but it was a
blunted, dull interest. The only live
interest he had was his business. New
