day. II IL wasn't for church twice. and you |
generally get to sleep there. II didn't |
ally get TO snoring. You show you're a /
business man by your very 6dgeting. Il
ain't at all like the young men who are in
the habit Of calling here they drop ia so /
softly. and sit on the sofa or In an easy |
chair for half day, II I'm 10 home and |
can let them stay. and never move about or
ddget bit. You'd scarcely know they
had hands they use them SO littIc and
they're so white and small. they seem
made for nothing but to hold the bouquets
they bring me, and firt about their lawn
handkerchiefs once In a while. ] admire
them young men Immensely and il Cerintha
and Felicia get married TO ans of them. I
shall be proud Of them. All they seem 10
want is to get the soft corner of the sofa
and say pretty things to The ladies' who
call on me. and witty things abou them
when they're gone. aud have something
nice for lunch. with glass Of champagne
and Fi,z Simmons to laugh with them and
have the rooms warm. and everything com.
Portable, and me in a good humor They
praise my servants and my chicken salad.
and my macaroons aud wine. and my dfess.
aud seem to like everything, which is very
kind Of them; ihen they're naturally 50
critical Oh. now. sin't you ashamed ID
turn up your nose 10 that stylei If didnt
knoH you were envlons Of those young gen.
tlemen. There's one thing you do envy
emf WHAT The fact that they dom
have 90 pay the bins2 Alwavs thinking
ab ut bills and money, and such vulgar
things ! don't suppose they ever think
about what things cost; they re 50 innocent
and so genfcel Me that's Innocent
Everybody makes fool Of me- even my
hired hclpY No. they don & neither there's
one person don't and that's YOU. Rasler
YOU never did make fool OF me and you
never will. except when married you and
it would be hard 10 tell then which was the
biggest fool Ugh ugh I wish hadn't
gone 2 skating
