SPecuIator scorned to Make Provision
for Lean Years. !

The late Townsend Percy, specu.
iator and pr moter, who made and lost
more than one fortune in the course
OF his life, used to be fond of repeating
some OF his mothers witticisms at his
expense, generally brought about by
his extravagances during his, periods
OF prosperity. Once Percy had driven
four-in.hand for a year, when an un.
fortunate :"deal" made it necessary for
him to reduce expenditures and sell
his horses, on which occasion she said
to him:
Townsend, don't you think that It
would be better to drive one horse
four years, instead OF four horses one
year" ,.
Another time, when on the verge Of
financial crash, Percy still owned a
considerable stable. and gave no out.
ward sign Of pecuniary embarrass.

or the family about this period, who
congratulated her on ner sons sue.

is doing so WELL" said the friend.
Yes, indeed" remarked the old
lady. Townsend has six horses and
seven carriages and eight dollars."--
