cop de real Paris article dat Duchess spouts. Das good ting, too; for when Duchess gets passing out de latest ex- trays about de little lad in de brass band set dat carries a wrist bag, and wears a rose in his thatch at night, it wouldn't do does back-woods Frenchies no good to hear de whole story.
 Jacques gives each of de walters bot of claret for dinner; but dat day one of em was docked his red wine and made to drink tea, because he'd broke so many dishes; and de poor chap cried so much over his hard luck dat he made de tea salty Den he said 1t wasn't so bad But dat wasn't what 1 was going to tell you; only sometimes I get wondering so hard why all folks isn't like Americans dat has to sing song about it-or have fit. 1 was saying dat to Mir. Paul de odder day, when we was trying to see would his sloop sail as well on her rail as her keel. Yes. Chames," he says, de American people couldn't do a wrong act if dey tried. Dey is a generous, just, patriotic and grateful people; and dey
 will not be represented in high office by a man who forgets to show generosity and gratitude and justice, instead of mean ness, ingratitude, and unfairness in all his acts At de club de odder day l was
 talking dis over wit General Miles, and he says"
 Just den a squall hits us. and me and MT. Paul has to swim ashore, so never heard what de General said. It don't cut no ice, anyway, for MT. Paul. when | he starts out wit lot of dude langwudge like does woids, is mostly training for
 match wit Whiskers.
 As was saying, dat wasn't what I was
 going to tell you about Remember de
 job dat Duchess puts up to make Whisk-
 CTS get togedder with Wiley Widdy! We'll, when Whiskers seen dat dere was no
 more trespassing on de grass he got foul
 of his ship streak again, and him and
 widdy was so far apart dat he couldn't
 see her. Dat makes Duchess so mad she could scream. for she is bound to
 get Whiskers located in his own fireside, so dat Miss Fannie can be made to take
 trips to Paris, and odder necks of woods , where Duchess wants to go, and where
 Miss Fannie won't go so long as her pa
 has no home of his own.
 I don't make it my business to fuss wit tings like dose, for I'm satisfied wit me | job as it lays; all de same I wouldn't | give odds dat Miss Fannie would put up | a yell If Whiskers had a shack to run all by himself, and didn't have so much | time to run hers. Mir. Paul doesn't say | noting He's a wise guy, Mir. Paul is, and so long as Whiskers stands half de
 price of running our places, dat leaves | MT. Paul more of his own long green
 to turn away on yachts and tings dat
 boins money like a tree-call fire alarm. X But just de same, if Whislers has q | latch key on a different block from us | can't see Mir. Paul putting his leg | out of joint kicking about it. But 1t 1 ain't a man-servant's graft to fuss wit
 dat part of de game. It's different wit
 women-soivants. If Duchess didn't have | hon fyo I f,Iy oha erixy up woik, and live on de tips she's been | touching me for all desc years. I was asking her about de poodle she has bank ed. Whats de use of money except
 to spend it"" I says to her.
 De woist use you can put money to is to spend t. mon ami. If you spend it you is no better of dan dose foolish pols- sons dat don't save it. Money is no good if you don't have it. is it? If 1t is onlY
 good to spend, why take all de trouble
 to get 1t? No, Master Cheems, if you have money you have self-respect-de
