About four years ago great uncle
of Stephens died in Westphalia, Ger
many and left stephen a fortune, a
really big bunch of money. and Broth
er Caraway was provided at las with
amply sufficient means 70 supply him
self with fuel OF the sort that he
thought would generate the greatest
amount of steam in his mental boiler.
stephen was always very iOnd OF
nature. 1t sort of uplifted him and
made him think great thoughts and alt
thai, and so when he got his money
he stopped grinding out things long
enough to buy him a place in the
country. and a nice place 1t was.
where you could see the sky and the
neeting clouds and the trees and the
hills. It was, in short, a place where
nature was at home and stephen en-
joyed 1t all enormously AMI then
when he got everything nicely set

resume work with his ideal fuel.

then Stephen would think that he
